Government meddling is what brought the messed up insurance situation to the point it is in. Handing the whole nut over the very people who managed...

Wait, what? Private companies are following the law, which limits their profits, and you're pissed? Is that the fault of the companies following the...

Who says that needs to be legal, as well? Some companies that have done that have faced some pretty strict fines for having done so. I think...

So, still allow "the rich" as defined by income pay the most taxes AND heavily tax corporations. Gotcha. You do know, I assume, that those...

PLEASE consider that I have tried to amend my "tax the rich!" AOC-sponsored slogan to "tax the corporations!" who are benefitting from tax breaks. ...

Yeah weekend one has begun

I don't believe government was created to take care of people either. I believe that government should be by the people, for the people. I believe...

They already are - by a wide margin. In 2017, the top 1 percent of taxpayers accounted for more income taxes paid than the bottom 90 percent...

What does racism 60 years ago have to do with medical care now?

PS I feel like I'm busier than a whorehouse madam during Fleet Week in NYC but I really do appreciate the discussion. I really do. - mike

It is the latter - taxing corporations the most, and that is an evolution of my argument. I still don't believe that people in that $17m income...

I dont believe government was created to take care of people. I dont know if that is how you view it or not. I also dont subscribe to the idea that...

I know you asked Mike, but can I say something? Nevermind, I will anyway. :) I also work with people all over. Canada, England, Russia, China,...

That's no different than today. I don't know about you, but I don't really get much choice in my healthcare coverage, aside from opting out of my...

I get that. Instead of solving with a single payer creating a govt monopoly, it makes more sense to me to greatly simplify the rules of medical...

I don't have the time for a lengthy copy & past reply, so I'll just ask a couple of questions: Mike, the first time you brought up taxing "the...

I know it is terminology, how someone talks. But it does frame how people think. The politico article is written in a particular manner: Is...

But that's the point of universal healthcare - one of the goals there is that it should remove that barrier, in that every medical provider takes...

That idea of a single payer is basically agreeable to nearly everyone as all the decision making is done by someone else. Either the stress of...

Actual true LOL over here. I thought I felt a bit of a cold front moving through hell. :D:D:D Tax capital gains (which is a more refined and...

People out of work, resulting in ends not meeting, which then is a slippery slope of self worthlessness and it gets worse, not to mention those who...

I would agree with this. I have been hiring/firing for over 20 years. Digging through piles of resumes/interviews of people who have unrealistic...

see my above comment.... thats one way

After 2 solid weeks of basketball training camp every day except Sundays, Trey's high school tryouts were yesterday. They had a bunch of kids...

27 => 37 Should be nicer tomorrow back in the fiddies

I was already using an off-brand melatonin gummy ... Results were mostly good, but made me thirsty for a bit if I took them as I went to bed ......

Totally agree - but why not just try to make it simpler? Why not try to just level the entire playing field - instead of there being a patchwork of...

Happy toozday which i am hoping goes better than mundee. I felt a little yucky yesterday morning but nothing bad but the yuckiness progressed through...

Nice dude! Glad it worked for ya! I can’t wait to sleep at home tomorrow night! Still on shift till tomorrow morning. Hopefully I can sleep...
