Thanks, and to my point:

Both the High Risk Pools AND privatized MediCaid need full participation by ALL health insurers.

That’s OK. If Trump can do as well as he is now without the public even being engaged since they are not engaged until six weeks before the election I’ll take my chances with the Donald over anyone else we could possibly have running.You gotta remember the Donald gets more popular every week. By October he will be unbeatable.

It was a hilarious moment and shows you just how much the msm gop-e fear this guy. They know the status quo of doing as they wish instead of what the voters want will be over and they can’t stand the loss of power.

How about letting people by insurance anywhere they want? Will that work? Across state lines?

I didn’t say “we” meaning only those alive, but the entire country. And yes, in that case, we are all RECENT descendants of immigrants, meaning in the past couple of hundred years. My first ancestor here, on my mother’s side, Roger Tyrell, arrived in Boston in 1631, he was an English immigrant. My last ancestor to arrive, my father’s mother, arrived in NYC in 1920 from Scotland.

And yes, Indians are immigrants, too, arriving, as you say, from Asia.

So don’t quibble. The is a huge difference in the makeup of our country and others. Europe, for example, has had—at least—remnants of the same people living there for tens of thousands of years. They’ve done DNA studies to prove it. England might have been invaded by the Celts, then the Romans, then the Angles and Saxons, then the Danes, and finally the French Normans, but the DNA of even the current people of England goes back far into prehistory.

Africa has had roughly the same people for over 100,000 years. Asia for tens of thousands. Australian aborigines got there roughly 50,000 years ago.

What makes Americans and Canadians so unique is they are mainly a European people, who all arrived in the past 300 years. There were never really a lot of Amerindians in the United States before like in Central and South Americas where Spanish descendants are mostly mixed with Amerindians. Maybe Uruguay and Argentina are more like us.

We are a new people. We are not derived from or even mixed in with the indigenous people like many Europeans. That is what I meant. I think most would understand what I meant. I do not want to infuriate your or step on your pet peeve, but the distinction I’ve made is real.

You have good reason to be worried. Just imagine Schumer and Ryan working together.

I lived in Italy for 3 years and Germany for 4. I know the VAT tax. Us American Forces were exempt but we had to fill out several documents to not pay or get our money back—a real PITA.

Anyway, the VAT is horrible. Every European hates it, it makes it too hard to know the true cost of things, and it squeezes the BLANK out of their economies... Yet the always seem to reelect the politicians who put it in place. Go figure!

Let’s hope Trump has some long coat-tails. Who should he campaign for the most? Which Republican is the most vulnerable?

I’m hoping if he can get a good number of voters to pull the lever for him in otherwise blue or purple states, he can also convince them to vote in a Republican Congress that he’ll need.

Yes, and part of the proposal. It’s the ultimate competition, exactly like car insurance.

Great war-Daddy you are!

Ha! At first I thought he wrote Rowan and Martin.

But the flying fickle finger of fate was not to be, it was actually some crappy BLM Leftist Journ-0-list....

I like the national retail sales tax, coupled with the repeal of the income tax. (Linder Fair Tax)

Speaking of vagrants, isn’t Portland the home of the original “skid row”? or is that Seattle?

I wouldn’t mind any of them so long as they pick ONE and only one.

The Europeans have taxes on everything: Income, Sales, Value-added, being alive, walking down the street, driving down the street, riding a bicycle down the street, looking out the windows down the street, etc., etc...

A great deal of them take up Schwartz Arbeiten, or black work. This means they do stuff for cold cash only, like fix up a house, paint walls, fix a car, cook food, etc. No tax on cash!

Nahhh.. the reel Roland Martin is a friend of mine and he’s one hell of a fisherman.Been on TV for years as well.
Last time he was in the Keys he caught two swordfish one over 200 lbs. on stand up gear without an electric reel in 1,600 feet of water.Roland is the reel deal.
