Hillary Clinton unveils her healthcare plan (Buy it or Else!!)
Newsday ^ | September 17, 2007 | GLENN THRUSH

DES MOINES, Iowa - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton unveiled Monday a $110 billion-a-year plan to insure every American -- and her second foray into health care reform elicited the same fusillade of criticism as "Hillarycare" did 14 years ago.

.....[snip].......

Clinton would force enrollment of young, healthy people, ages 18 to 30, who often forego insurance because they believe they will never get sick. Clinton said their participation was essential because premiums from healthy patients offset higher costs incurred by older patients.

Clinton adviser Laurie Rubiner said she would leave it to Congress to come up with sanctions for people who failed to comply, but suggested one penalty could be the loss of the standard deduction on their income tax filings......"

Hillary Clinton is the U.S. equivelent of Caesar Chavez. We’ll see how much of your nation you can recognize after her first term.

I am somewhat sympathetic to your views, but it’s been startling enough to watch Bush’s effect on this nation. Hillary Clinton? Where’s the exit?

I may not leave, but I always like to know where the exit is when I’m in an outhouse. Those of you who feel moved to respond, this is Hillary. This isn’t some bitch hiding behind the scenes. This will be a full-out assault on everything this nation has every stood for.

Thank you, and that IS a quote of hers. Wish I had a date on it now!

“Instead, she would finance it by eliminating $54 billion in Bush administration tax cuts for families making more than $250,000 a year...”

A lot of her West and East Coast fans won’t like this. $250,000 isn’t much in many cities.

This is an issue that can bite her on the a$$ because it is the chief piece of co-presidential power she held.

Closed door sessions.
Won’t release the papers under FOIA requests.
But she wants to run on her “record”.

And there is that nasty Constitutional prohibition on people returning to the White House after their 2 terms. You don’t even have to be elected or sworn in.

And she’s already said that Bill would have unConstitutional power in her White House.

When you can turn $1,000 investment into $100,000 all money is pretend anyway.

Same with Terry McAwful’s windfall of an $100,000 investment yielding $17,000,000.

All animals are equal. Some are more equal than others.

The question is if America collapses into Socialism, with continued political persecution of the Clintons’ critics (IRS audits, lawsuits against those who report assaults...) where do you run?

The whole world’s going Socialist. And many nations aren’t so quick to let those who want to “immigrate”.

WTF??? What if I don’t NEED insurance? Suppose I just happen to have enough money of my own to pay for my medical care???

I can’t believe what this country is coming to.

Just reduce our taxes and let us keep our own hard earned money...and WE THE PEOPLE will decide what is best for us.

That woman is a foaming at the mouth rabid hog.

"Many of you are well enough off that ... the tax cuts may have helped you," Sen. Clinton said. "We're saying that for America to get back on track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good."

I found it. The exact wording is: "We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good.""

The comment was at a Fundraiser in San Francisco in 2004.

the penalty for no compliance

Hillary(!) was heard mumbling, "Off with their heads, the wretched disobedient peasants! Off with their heads"!

The smartest woman in the world seems to have forgotten the backlash she caused last time! Hope this is her "Jump the Shark" moment!

Thanks devolve. Did we ever discuss a fairly recent article that debated the fact of Sir Edmond Hillary actually being the FIRST to climb Mt. Everest?

Yep, ya just knew the old Totalitarian couldn't leave it alone. Her original disaster made doctors and patients subject to fines and imprisonment if they went outside her system.

God help us (and forgive us) if the Evil One gets elected.

Move to another country? No way! You would be getting your news from CNN International, and they would portray the “New America” as a newly created paradise!

"...Her original disaster made doctors and patients subject to fines and imprisonment if they went outside her system.."

Hmmmm! I had not heard that. The fact is that Hillary has not yet said what the penalty would be. It could well be worse than losing the standard deduction. That has to be clarified by HRC. If she ducks that question she should be hounded into the ground over it.
