jsgoodfella, which ... ( 3 months ago by digitalnow)

jsgoodfella, which taxes are you talking about? Do you mean income tax? You do know that that is not the same thing as payroll tax? right? Those who make the least, pay the most in payroll tax. Once you make $100,000.00 you don't pay payroll taxes on the rest of the money. So, if you get one mill in payroll, you only pay payroll tax on $ one hundred thousand of that.

I meant our, not ur ... ( 3 months ago by jsgoodfella)

I meant our, not ur, sorry about that What I meant was income tax. Oh, and the top 10% pay 64.2% of total government revenue. The rich give the government most of its money.

You are right. The ... ( 3 months ago by jsgoodfella)

You are right. The normal laws of supply and demand don't work in healthcare, and I do not want the U.S. government to regulate healthcare, thus screwing it up.

tHE ENTITTLED (WW2 GENERATION) IS THE LAST OF THE PEOPLE WHO GET CARE/ THE AVERAGE COST TO TREAT THEM IS 200,000 PER YEAR. THIS IS WHAT IS MAKING THE SYSTEM UNEQUITABLE. HEART BI PASS'S AND OTHER "SUPER TREATMENTS" KEEP THE SYSTEM BROKE AND PRICES CLIMBING. HOW ABOUT SIMPLE HEALTH CARE FOR THE POOR? JUST TO HELP PREVENT OR ARREST THE CONDITION?

People are their own worst enemy. They run to the doctor for anything to include getting a doctors note to get out of work. You bastards are destroying health care in America.

The healthcare "crisis" occured because government has already regulated health care. Its stupid, there needs to be no more government interference.

Health care was ... ( 2 months ago by CJohns53)

Health care was provided to everyone at one time before HNO's took over. The increasing costs of file keeping, code management and paperwork required by these new HMO's costs the doctors and hospitals a fortune in just these things alone. When I was a kid, most people who worked had Blue Cross blue Shield, and the doctors didn't have to do anything except turn in a bill and get the money the were owed. I didn't have to have a job to buy insurance. I paid $150 a month for full Blue Cross coverage

how about getting rid of the middleman, where hospitals could have their own health care programs?

Pinky may have a liberal stance in many of her videos, but how is discussing the state of our health care system make someone a "dumb ass liberal"? Do you think health care is important to liberals only? That's insulting liberals, independents, and conservatives.

Bullshit!! Digiman, the rich pay most of the taxes. All of them. You forgot all the others. Like capital gains or the corperate taxes. The rich also hire people to work. I never worked for a poor man. Have you?

My o my o my....the dems brought upon this financial crisis along with the head of Obama's campain who was the CEO of Fanny Mae. In order for him to increase his bonuses he had to take more risky loans that was pushed by the dems so they could win votes from dead beats. In 2006 the republicans/McCain tried to stop this but was shut down by the democrat congress.

Employees, not ... ( 1 month ago by rusty2b)

Employees, not employers, should deduct health insurances cost.
Health care cost would be less wild if individuals held the purse strings on health care expenses.
Individuals would still band together to get a good deal and fairness from insurers.
Our current financial mess tracks back to Congress enabling FREDDIE MAC and FANNY MAE. 2.5 trillion of easy to write (no down payment, no income proof) mortgages since 2001.
Don't expect government arranged health care to be done right.

America's current ... ( 1 month ago by goodhuemett)

America's current system is the worst of both worlds: capitalism makes it so the health care industry is driven by profit not quality, insurance is a form of socialization with more middle men that takes away competition from providers.

The wealthy are a ... ( 1 month ago by goodhuemett)

The wealthy are a product of the society that they live in and therefore should contribute to that society. Bill Gates, Donald Trump, Paris Hilton would not be rich if they did not have access to healthy, educated, willing workers, dependable infrastructure (roads, energy, etc), free consumers, a justice system to keep them safe and allow them to keep their wealth etc. If you plopped any of these people in Somalia, they would not become rich, no matter how talented or hard working they are.

For all the people ... ( 1 month ago by goodhuemett)

For all the people who are bringing up "who would pay for socialized medicine?" following it up by saying that the rich would have to pay for most of it and that would be unfair...
Yes the top 5% of our wealthiest pay for like half the taxes, but considering they have over half of the wealth in America, what would you expect? Do you really expect the people who have the least control over and least benefit from our economy to support our society?

The doctor union ... ( 1 month ago by xxx41724172)

The doctor union keeps salaries high by making it difficult to become a doctor. Thank you A.M.A.! I appreciate the fact I get a 4.0 gpa doctor who went to college for 15 years all to diagnose a silly ear infection or set a bone. It's overkill. Double the number of doctors and all associated medical services and diagnostics and watch the unit price of health care fall in half while creating jobs. Why wont this happen? Doctors lobby. This keeps the government out of any anti-trust investigations.

It's a lot more complicated than republicans/democrats. The US is owned by corporations...and bases everything on what benefits those corporations. The corruption goes across any political line.
