Well so that is ... By: RvNYC. on 17 Feb 10, 07:13:31 Well so that is what all those community reinvestment dollars buy, political advisors that would make Stalin proud.
I really doubt the local towns folk at the townhall meetings come nearly as well prepared. Their only concern is why THEIR representative? is not representing them. But then again this is a mere trivial side note to the HCAN know it alls in their quest for power uber alls.
We are against ... By: pataskalagirl. on 23 Jan 10, 20:24:13 We are against illegal immigration reform and we must let them know. Legal immigrants, are a whole other animal. Like M. let the? democrats know that they were leaving, because they ignored the people. America is mostly conservative, no matter what party there in. We must take back America. Next on Obama agenda is you are racist if you are against immigration reform. Just wait for it.
This video is ... By: pataskalagirl. on 23 Jan 10, 20:23:59 This video is partisan crap. We are the best place on Earth. Not perfect , not ideal but hugely superior to anything anywhere else offers. Of course that can change.? Obama is trying to destroy the U. S. under he guise of fundamentally changing America (to Socialist Communist America). There is nothing wrong with the fundamental form of America we already enjoy. We as the people have to make our voices heard.

No it isn't. The ... By: OpArclight. on 23 Jan 10, 16:21:32 No it isn't. The political spectrum is defined by amount of government control over the economy and society. At the far right would be anarcho-capitalism the far left? is represented by fascism and communism.
This is partisan ... By: TheAkashdeepJabandar. on 23 Jan 10, 13:49:02 This is partisan bullshit. America is on her knees right now and the bullet to the back of her head will be continued open border policies and an illegal alien amnesty.
BOTH POLITICAL PARTIES SUPPORT AMNESTY? AND OPEN BORDERS so take off your blinkers.
Expect Sarah Palin and commentators like Glen Beck, Bill O'Reilly oh and Lou Dobbs, already softening their positions on immigration, to come out in favor of "immigration reform" when the issue is considered again. Goodbye USA.
Yeah it is and ... By: TheAkashdeepJabandar. on 23 Jan 10, 13:32:27 Yeah it is and reminds me of the "free speech zones" created to protect George W Bush from unpleasant exhibitions of actual free speech from the lower orders - ie not east-coast aristocrats like him.
George W Bush-a slightly less progressive version of Obama, author of stimulus 1, illegal alien amnesty, new entitlements and the bank bailout - charged to the deficit.
The Republican? party only shrieks about conservative values and the constitution when they're out of power.

It doesn't belong only to those of the same opinion (as he say's, it's your meeting).
People are turned off by their arrogance, sense of entitlement ... it's why the Democrats are losing the entire insurance reform process.

We need to get ... By: LisaClark45. on 08 Dec 09, 02:05:54 We need to get those who have a Communist ideology out of our country! This has been taking place gradually, since the beginning of the 20th century and now, it is going full force, which is the only reason we are now noticing it? to the point where we need to take the bull by the horns and go after these people during the 2010 elections. After we are done with them, those turncoats won't know what hit them!

This is odd isn't? it?
Be civil but ... By: DeportThemNow. on 07 Dec 09, 22:27:00 Be civil but suppress their freedom of speech through your "blocking" tactics. So if I come to an SEIU meeting or a Code Pink meeting and do the same that will be fine with you right jerkwad? Guess what - your tactics only piss us off more.. WTF it's YOUR meeting? NO -? it is a PUBLIC meeting of constituents and those are the voices you seek to silence. You will hear their voices loud and clear on election day 2010. Thank you for being such idiots that we can return the country to sane leaders

This is Rep. Schakowsky's video response for the YouTube Town Hall question on the economy: "We are greatly concerned about the current economic climate in the United States. Not only are prices on consumer goods going up, but the value of our currency is falling. How will congress solve the burdens that weigh so heavily on everyone?"
His points were ... By: TWSceptic. on 16 Dec 11, 07:53:39 His points were valid, but I agree he shouldn't have interrupted as much as he did. But in a good debate? this is normal and it didn't get out of hand IMO.
Schiff does need to ... By: RealLiveDebates. on 04 May 11, 17:12:02 Schiff does need to learn to let the guy speak completely and then debunk him. That said I? agree with Schiff's points completely. Increased labor-saving capacity isn't a theft from the poor to the rich. If it's becoming increasingly difficult for the workers to survive, it's because of all the spending and machinations of the Government. Unions don't make inflation go away, it's absurd.
if you make a point ... By: p1b1harper. on 02 Apr 11, 13:31:59 if you make a point....then you need to allow time for rebuttal....these people shouid learn to argue better....make a point and end it... dont ramble on and? on...what bothers me is when people state something as though its gospel and then go on and on...when someone says something that is a lie or dead wrong...thats when you are supposed to say... no no you are wrong...

I agree with the ... By: jefftri. on 09 Mar 11, 03:29:02 I agree with the comment about Schiff's stampeding. I? just saw a recent one with Dick Morris where Morris after a few minutes just said forget it an hung up. This was a shame because Schiff's views were clearly superior to Morris' but the debate never even got off the ground. Hope Schiff can learn to tame it down a notch so he doesn't loose the incredible value of his message.
Good debate!? By: flyinbry. on 07 Mar 11, 04:39:31 Good debate!?
I don't agree. When ... By: MaurDL. on 04 Mar 11, 23:33:39 I don't agree. When Ron Paul made his presidential bid he was ridiculed by almost everyone but John Stossel. Since then I would argue quite a few people, even if only nominally, have come around to his message. I would argue the progress he's made, such as chair of the financial subcommittee, is because some? people can have their minds changed and not everyone is stubbornly resistant to reason.
It isn't going to ... By: 9FINGA. on 04 Mar 11, 21:10:35 It isn't going to be possible to win? them over. However, a guest does deserve a fair share of time with fewer interruptions.
I actually think ... By: MaurDL. on 04 Mar 11, 02:46:25 I actually think this is the same problem Peter had with his Senatorial race. He's a? smart guy and interesting to listen to but he's terrible at connecting with people or winning over anyone that doesn't already identify with his message.
Just trying for the ... By: Mrwhynot17. on 02 Mar 11, 07:48:58 Just trying for the "Gotcha" soundbite is not what I? expect from Schiff.
I had to give this ... By: LibertyMike1. on 01 Mar 11, 18:47:33 I had to give this video a thumbs down. As big of a fan of Schiff's as I am, I am starting to get tired of his yelling/talking over his guests. That's what hosts like Bill O'reilly, Shaun Hannity, Ed Schultz, etc do.? If Peter wants to expose his message to people who are new or not already followers of the Austrian School/Free Market economics, I suggest he act in a professional manner as a host. Acting like O'reilly will just turn away potential patriots!
Of course you are ... By: sparktastic1. on 01 Mar 11, 10:42:45 Of course you are right. No system is perfect, but I have to say that I personally would rather live in a society that provides universal healthcare for all it's citizens and the vast majority of drugs are either free or heavily subsidized. Yes, we are taxed higher than? you guys in the US, but where has it got you? Newsflash... Very few people in my 'high Taxing' country complain about tax rates. I guess it is hard to imagine if you have never experienced it.
Roberts assertion ... By: mcbain434444. on 01 Mar 11, 10:00:34 Roberts assertion that more unions are needed does not seem to hold water. Many lumber mills were I live were shut down because union demands became too great. People were getting paid very high wages for the most? simple of tasks. Unions are great for people in unions. But there increase costs of have to come from somewhere. It often comes at the expense of everyone else.
The guys argument ... By: mcbain434444. on 01 Mar 11, 09:50:06 The guys argument about how the steel mill may have become more? productive and wages have not increased to match that increase in productivity. Unfortunately he failed to factor in that the money supply is being increased which is devaluing the currency and offsetting the cheaper products that are a result of this increased productivity. So booth peter and Robert were correct however Robert failed to factor in monetary policy. This would have been an enjoyable debate with less interruptions.

By: Boozebegood. on 01 Mar 11, 09:25:48 lol WOW Just WOW I can't? wait to see the look on his face IF he wake up one day and finds hes not getting anymore SS checks, the comment about being out of step with most of america reminds me of how everyone knows to be cool you have to smoke, or would you jump off a cliff if everyone else did? this guy would, funnest one bashing your head against wall i have ever seen, for debate

You guys Must be union facts are facts And they are also bull shiting us Whats with all the communits crap? Whats that have to do with unions and working pepole It just seem to be the top people in the union? I know I was in one in my veiw its all crap Thugs

Do not lower your standard to those FAX news and mainstream media reporters. I cant? stand when people do not let their opponent speak.
Peter asked him why ... By: RangerMcFriendlie. on 01 Mar 11, 04:59:00 Peter asked him why he had the opinions he did and to explain himself, then he interrupts him immediately and repeatedly.? What's the point? Even if you don't think Creamer deserves a second to speak, it was a flurry or words blurred from interruption and isn't radio friendly at all to listen to. Why do you people keep replying the same argument? I'm not hating on Schiff, I just thought this episode of the show was poopoo from all the interruption. Let him speak or don't have him on.
Yes,? this is the ... By: thechitowncubs. on 01 Mar 11, 04:46:24 Yes,? this is the truth.
I think this was a ... By: geekstreat. on 01 Mar 11, 04:26:20 I think this was a good debate. You cant let this Robert Creamer make 5 different points in one sentence. I think Peter sees how wrong this guy is and is refutiating each point as it comes instead of letting him rattle off 20 different bogus points. Not a boring debate.? If you want a boring dialogue, listen to NPR.
I disagree. Why ... By: jdjbarnat. on 01 Mar 11, 04:20:19 I disagree. Why waste time with formalities and constructive criticism? Creamer must have known Schiff's reputation as an adamant debater. Why should Peter let? some guy waste air time on his own show to spew false speculation about our economy?

Your condescending tone meant I never had any desire to have a "conversation" with you from the get go.
Learn manners please.

I love you peter shiff, you have taught me a lot about economics but it would be nice if you backed off a bit and let people make a complete case. its hard for me to learn whats going on when nobody is allowed to talk. dont be rush, hannity and the like.
Peter is crying ... By: TheYanna2009. on 01 Mar 11, 00:38:41 Peter is crying about free market.? Then why did we bail anyone out!!! WE SHOULD HAVE LET THE BANKS FAIL. THAT'S THE REAL PROBLEM CHILD! they made bad bet on our dollar. Got more money bigger bonuses now they have to blame someone. The government was borrowing out of medicare/medicaid there was a surplus. I want what i'm paying into. Granted ppl were not expected to live that long. then stop taking my money and continue to pay for the ppl that are in it.. ppl 25 and younger have a different plan

As far as health-care is concerned,? train and eat healthy and get some basic insurance and you should be fine. Continue with more entitlement programs and the USA will go broke very soon!

You are all? so ... By: MrDiofree. on 19 Sep 09, 18:41:17 You are all? so ignorant. Somehow you are all being duped by right-wing propaganda that somehow equates socialized medicine with a totalitarian socialist state. Do some research, read a book, look at history before making such a retarded claim. The countries with the best medical systems ARE socialized, how can you miss the point so badly?

we need to reduce spending in some places(military, pointless corporate contracts), raise taxes(inevitable, you will never avoid this), and generally stop being stupid with our money.
healthcare for people who dont have it is something we should be spending money on. things need to be reformed and made more efficient. it isnt the system itself that has failed it is our? currently shitty way of managing it.
Boy please, with ... By: KChery. on 04 Sep 09, 16:19:35 Boy please, with that kind of trust fund b*llsh*t, who are you trying to fool. Try not to overdose on your meds you lazy bastard. If you're so rich what the heck are you doing putting stupid comments against Health Care reform on youtube. oh let me guess, your daddy works for some health insurance company right?? You should cancel yourself out of this life, you useless piece of crap.
and your solution ... By: tooltalk. on 04 Sep 09, 11:12:45 and your solution is bringing the same guy who bankrupted your bank account to manage it?
it simply baffles me how liberals think - you are in the spanking middle of once-in-a-century economic crisis with USPS, Medicare, SS, and other gov't prgms soon going up in flames, now all u think about is creating more problems! all that, with money u don't have! It's probably not too surprising we have gov't that frequently promotes failed policies & people? (Geitner and Bernanke)

Once they got ... By: Zile77. on 03 Sep 09, 18:38:22 Once they got control of all three branches, Liberal dumocrats were all too eager to impose their idiologist agenda of social justice on this country -- including universal health care -- with power-hungry, and reckless disregard of the adverse consequences for our freedom's, liberty, economic security, national security -- and the American dream.
Marxism is what Obama meant when he promised a "transformation"? of our country. This is anti-capitalism, un-American, and unfair. This is immoral.

If Obama brought all the? troops home from around the world, just maybe, they could make medicare and social security solvent. It's nice to get things for "free" but that just doesn't happen. Why hasn't Obama ended the wars?
Liberals are ... By: Zile77. on 03 Sep 09, 18:20:03 Liberals are dumbshits who shouldn't be allowed to vote. They gave us idiots like Carter,? Clinton and now Obumbo! Libs are uneducated fools who get by on phony emotions, not logic and reality. Screw 'em all!

By: MrCipriani18. on 09 Jan 12, 06:45:43 I agree that Communism and Fascism share some similarities: Both were created by hate (well in the case of communism I fully agree? with the hateful because they had been forced to work hard under extremely perilious conditions so their greedy boss could gain more profit, also they only got a small amount of what they produced) On the other hand Capitalism (AKA Exploition of the Weak and Poor) /Imperialism (the worst form of CAPITALISM) and the politics of Nazi Germany AND Soviet= same shit

If you want freedom, you should want the right to have a say in how your workplace is run, and the right to receive the full value of your labor, the right to not be dictated by a profit-driven boss. To argue that the 'free market' is in any way curbing demand for finite resources is laughable and insulting to intelligence.

What it is about true capitalism, voluntary exchange, and free market libertarianism that gives up freedoms? I know it's? easy to spout out nonsense, but have some discretion. How could you reasonably protect finite resources without a free market price system to curb demand?

Your entire argument is a joke, a fantasy counterpoint to a non-existent 'big government' argument.
Of course... You ... By: stebecool. on 08 Jan 12, 19:59:20 Of course... You have no real argument left so you flee to personal insults. Hmmm lets cede more power and our individual liberties to the government and give them more control over our lives, personal decisions, and the economy. Does that process not end until you have state-run media to? the likes of North Korea's which convinced its people that Kim Jong Ill invented the internet and the hamburger or a Mao, Hitler, or Stalin in power? You define the typical big-government pawn.
Who loves death ... By: stebecool. on 08 Jan 12, 19:44:39 Who loves death more? The brainwashed lefties' loved messiah Mao Zedong is responsible for the deaths of 10s of millions. Only socialists and commies advocate violence and death as a reasonable means to promote and? maintain their ideology. Socialist fascist Hitler killed millions. Stalin killed 20+ million. It goes on and on. You are an embarrassment to your family.
I think you must be ... By: michaelwuzthere. on 08 Jan 12, 19:40:48 I think you must be extremely deluded, because it takes a very warped logic to compare democratic socialism to nazism. From the looks of your comments, you seem to be very angry and paranoid, probably stemming from some past? trauma, and you take out your frustration by making absurd troll comments on the internet, which is pretty common in the right-wing. Clearly we don't share the same definition of terms, because you have to live in a world where such nonsense can make sense.
If you're going to ... By: stebecool. on 08 Jan 12, 19:35:16 If you're going to protest something, you better be ready to back it up with some reasoning. If not, you're just? a useful idiot sheep of some bigger force (which describes 99% of the OWS "99%ers").

So as it turns out, you kids really were there just because protesting is something fun to do and to build your image as an "emotional revolutionary" around your dirty commie friends.
Clearly you don't ... By: stebecool. on 08 Jan 12, 19:26:19 Clearly you don't know what fascism is or how you end up there. Read The Road to Serfdom and get back to me. Nazism wasn't "national socialism" for nothin.

That is why the socialist dictatorships were so brutal... the leaders got desperate when people didn`t want to work! As long as greed and corruption exists there will be no communism... We must evolve and become more friendly against each others... Working for our brothers and sisters faer across the ocean... Sounds stupid, huh? Well it is a nice dream.. too bad it? will probarly never work...
Redistribution of ... By: stebecool. on 15 Nov 11, 19:49:35 Redistribution of the wealth and "income equality" is absurd. Welfare, minimum wage, and entitlements do more harm than good. Redistribution of wealth removes the incentive to innovate and compete. Government is not efficient in running anything. Regulation creates monopolies. Welfare creates a system of dependency (I know? this first hand). People will do what you pay them to do. If you pay them to grow corn, they will grow corn. If you pay them to not work, they will not work.

I'm extremely proud ... By: EPerdedora. on 01 Oct 10, 03:00:53 I'm extremely proud to be a resident of Illinois, where Representative Schakowsky serves. Abortion is a right that all women deserve to have, and although it may be legal in this country there are numerous laws that are intended to take away from that right. The Hyde Amendment is only one of those laws, but it is among the most discriminatory. The right to an abortion shouldn't be denied to women? who depend on Medicaid. The hate directed here towards the Rep for her beliefs is a true shame.

Abortion should be banned, w/exceptions where the mother's life is in danger. A dream: to build havens, safe places where women who consider abortion could live for 9-10 months, receive prenatal care, counseling, love & compassion,? job assistance/guidance, transition to adoption. Humane.

The next 19% has about 51% of the country's financial wealth
This means the top 20% has about 93% of the country's wealth
The bottom? 80% now only has about 7%

- None of what you ... By: thereprieve. on 23 Dec 10, 14:15:18 - None of what you stated is "income tax". It's taxes on purchases or it's a government enforced savings plan for your future because you (in the eyes of your government) are too stupid to do it yourself.
80% of a "rich person's" income doesn't? come from working now, it's a fruit of their previous labor and wise investment decisions. Leave it to the left to punish success and reward failure.

Would you please let me know how this is possible? And use sources to back up your claim. How is it possible that the richest 2% pay more than 2/3rds of the nations taxes yet it's not 16-22% of their income as you? suggest? How would a poor person pay 16% of their income in taxes?

Once we get to that point, the economy will stabilize and businesses will hire. Then we can see if taxpayers need to hire 2.2 million people.

Ok, so Article 1, ... By: MattinglyDesign. on 29 May 11, 12:30:29 Ok, so Article 1, Section 8, Clause 18 basically says that Congress has the authority to execute laws within the framework of the Constitution... which has absolutely nothing to do with the ability to mandate consumer purchase. There? is also a massive difference between Congressional authority and Supreme Court's interpretation Constitutional law.
I am sorry this is just a piece of paper to you. For many of us, the Constitution is the writ that all of our freedoms are based on.
"The Congress shall ... By: 00maharum00ma. on 25 May 11, 16:49:18 "The Congress shall have Power - To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing? Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof."
-Article one, Section 8, Clause 18

Spoken like a true ... By: MattinglyDesign. on 25 May 11, 13:02:44 Spoken like a true anarchist. Name the part of the Constitution that gives? Congress the authority to mandate the purchase of a product or service. Otherwise, that horse shit is all over your face.

The existence of ... By: 00maharum00ma. on 20 May 11, 17:03:15 The existence of the state in itself throws away freedoms. That doesn't mean I want? to immediately abolish it. Look, I don't like the health care bill. I don't like Jan Schakowsky. I don't like Democrats, and I don't even like the Constitution. But this argument that it's somehow unconstitutional is horseshit.
Yet you're willing ... By: MattinglyDesign. on 20 May 11, 13:09:56 Yet you're willing to throw away yours and everyone? else's freedoms on an assumption... and through lawmakers who can't answer the Constitutionality of laws they pass. 6:20
That isn't what the ... By: 00maharum00ma. on 20 May 11, 10:06:28 That isn't what the statement says at all, shithead. It says that Congress can pass any laws that it deems necessary, provided that they don't violate the? rest of the constitution. You can make some sort of archaic States' Rights argument, but when the founding fathers actually were in Government, they used that clause to pass laws that you'd probably deem unconstitutional.
And I'm not a liberal, asshole.

So, if the census asked questions regarding income then it could possibly be used to argue taxes changing with income levels is unconstitutional.

Yeah, well, who's ... By: dogvom. on 18 Mar 11, 03:36:09 Yeah, well, who's to say the fabulously rich corporate ELITE actually earned all their money? My theory is that the majority of it was obtained through exploitation of their workers (the people who actually produce the wealth), lying and graft, or inheritance. What you mistakenly refer to as redistribution is actually re-redistribution back into the hands of those who did all the work. Scratch a rich man and? you'll find a thief under the thin veneer of respectability.
Fairness means that ... By: dogvom. on 18 Mar 11, 01:16:15 Fairness means that if 10 per cent of the population receive 90 per cent of the money, they should also be paying 90 per cent of? the total taxes, as is their civic duty.

Fairness...Wouldn't ... By: heavym3tal. on 18 Mar 11, 00:26:26 Fairness...Wouldn't that mean all people? have to pay the same tax rate? She should read a book by Milton Friedman to educate herself.

Ah, yes...leave it ... By: werelobo. on 17 Mar 11, 22:45:44 Ah, yes...leave it to one of the Illinois DSA morons to come up with such a brilliant plan. Socialists never tire of spending other people's money. Maybe if? she'd ever taken an economics course, she'd understand the difference between income and wealth. Of course, if she did, she wouldn't be a socialist...
Common sense. Plain ... By: FriedDaisy. on 17 Mar 11, 08:13:45 Common sense. Plain & simple. You can't run a country, or a state for that matter, with such a complex economy & millions of citizens without revenue! 1% of our population controls 80% of our common wealth with the real middle class,? comprised of the 9% just below the 1% previously mentioned, controlling 5% of the wealth which leaves 15% for the other 90% of us to divide amongst ourselves. The working class, 40% of us, controls 14% of the measly 15% which leaves 1% to support the poor.

Thank you for the information. YouTube comments should be informative and/or insightful.
I? looked it up and you are fairly correct with his charges although somewhat exaggerated. From what I gather he ran some sort of business and paid his employees under the table. I've had jobs where I was paid under the table, but I was getting screwed pretty bad too.
Either way its inexcusable for someone aspiring to public office.

On the Fox Business channel on May 5, 2009, Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) responds to a question on earlier comments she made at a rally for the Obama healthcare reform plan. (See www.foxbusiness.com for video and transcript of full interview)
And she's a liar. ... By: DonTruman. on 28 Oct 09, 07:21:33 And she's a liar. View the video "The Public Plan Deception - I'ts? Not About Choice" for some more video clips of her, where she couldn't be clearer about what she wants, and how she intends to do it.
She is a creep. ... By: wmb1957. on 10 Sep 09, 00:58:10 She is a creep. Talks about the double digit price increases in health insurance without saying a thing about double? digit health care costs increases.
Does she thinks the insurance companies print money to pay their bills, like the government does?
"If it is not ... By: philWynk. on 12 Aug 09, 12:55:02 "If it is not possible for a private company to compete with the government, how do you explain this?? "
These exist because the government chooses to let them exist. If the Postal Service chose to phase out Fedex, UPS, et al, and take over fast-package delivery, they would disappear.
The goal of the Obama plan is to phase out private insurance. Anybody who believes otherwise is swallowing the blue pill.
"I could list ... By: philWynk. on 12 Aug 09, 12:46:30 "I could list private vs public examples all day long, so why don't these retards get it? "
This "retard" knows that those public versions are not free. You pay for them with taxes. In effect, if you go to the beach and I don't, I am paying for your use of the public beach. Is that just?
What's? worse is this: we're not going to go broke paying for a public beach, but universal health care, with the currency on the verge of collapse? This is CRIMINALLY NEGLIGENT. We're broke.
1) The reason for ... By: philWynk. on 12 Aug 09, 12:41:21 1) The reason for inflation in private insurance prices is largely government intervention.
2) No private business can compete with the national government, because the government does not go out of business if it works poorly. With unlimited tax dollars to cushion whatever managerial mistakes, the government program continues where the best private business would collapse.
3) How? does a fee-based insurer compete with a "free" public service?
The cake is a lie.
I understood. Was ... By: UltraSWG. on 12 Aug 09, 05:28:36 I understood. Was just giving one more thing to agree with me on.
Here's more:
State and Federal Parks vs private parks
Public beaches vs private beaches
Public pools? vs private pools
Toll roads vs public roads
State sponsored daycare vs private daycare
Public hunting lands vs private hunting lands
Public fishing lakes vs private fishing lakes
I could list private vs public examples all day long, so why don't these retards get it?
I am in total ... By: marcostar57. on 12 Aug 09, 04:55:47 I am in total AGREEMENT w/your comment; maybe you misunderstand mine.
YES, a public option can compete effectively with? the private sector. Some people just don't get this.......
But? you LOVE the ... By: marcostar57. on 12 Aug 09, 04:51:09 But? you LOVE the way Insurance HMO's are screwing us now.....hmm feels so GOOD!
Indeed.
Here's ... By: UltraSWG. on 12 Aug 09, 04:21:53 Indeed.
Here's another public? option that competes with private companies: the Postal Service.
The Postal Service is cheap, has a monopoly on letters, and gets federal protection benefits as well as provides services no other courier can, like registered mail.
However, FedEx, UPS, DHL, Airborne Express, Golden State and a host of other courier companies THRIVE in this country.
If it is not possible for a private company to compete with the government, how do you explain this?
I am so afraid of ... By: NC8663. on 11 Aug 09, 18:40:44 I am so afraid of the Democratic health plan. I can/t? afford to pay more for health insurance or to go out of the country for care when our care deteriorates. Once again, the Democrats are screwing the poor under the guise of helping the poorer people in this country.

"...It's about ... By: plouis101010. on 10 Aug 09, 15:51:25 "...It's about choice..." - you want to end up with a single payer system and you claim this? BS!
"...private insurance companies need to shape up and compete...." - compete with the government? An entity that can print money and go 11? trillion dollars in debt? BS!
UltraSWG --? you're ... By: marcostar57. on 10 Aug 09, 04:52:26 UltraSWG --? you're way TOO logical & rational.
This debate has to be about socialism & how Obama's gonna kill old people, etc.. -- lots of yelling & screaming!!
Boy, aren't you a ... By: marcostar57. on 10 Aug 09, 04:48:51 Boy, aren't you a MAN...better? yet a toad for the insurance industry!
Exactly!
First, ... By: special1740. on 03 Aug 09, 22:14:22 Exactly!
First, insurance companies are saying that? they don't want to lose jobs, but deregulation would create even more jobs without the need for government regulation.
After we deregulated the telecom industry, homeless people now walk around with cell phones.
You know one of the ... By: desertsun2003. on 27 Jul 09, 17:14:53 You know one of the things I find odd is that the poor disaffected minority Americans who want this program already despise the county health clinic they are forced to go to today, yet they? are voting for a system that will provide them no other choice, but that type of system. PLUS, they are swallowing it from a rich white person, who will never have to be part of the nightmare they create. *boggle*
there is no ... By: shizont. on 26 Jul 09, 23:12:54 there is no question that private insurance should do better--and it would, if? it was exposed to real market forces. Insurance companies don't compete, they collude! Support HR 1583 to repeal the anti trust exemptions for insurance companies
ROFL? -- yeah, ... By: DonTruman. on 10 Jul 09, 00:56:57 ROFL? -- yeah, right, as if that's what she meant. What a liar. She even said (or "yelled" is a better word for it) about how she WANTS single-payer, and how "this ISN'T a principled fight. It's about getting us there". That video is in my playlist of Commentaries.
It is not ... By: UltraSWG. on 02 Jul 09, 21:28:43 It is not impossible to? compete with a government service.
If public options put private options out of business, then why do people still pay 10 times more to go to a private college versus a state college?
How much better is Stanford over the University of Texas? UT actually does better in math, science, sports, etc yet people still send their kids to expensive private universities.
People who can afford it will go with private insurance just like private schools.
16million people in ... By: diamondryder. on 17 Jun 09, 15:33:04 16million people in America are without insurance out of over 300million and we are going to destroy our? healthcare system for that? We are going to raise our debt levels by trillions of dollars for that?
Health care has ... By: claggben. on 16 Jun 09, 23:42:56 Health care has become so expensive because? of government regulation (what must be covered). In my opinion, the first thing to go with a single-payer system will be coverage for acupuncture and chiropractic treatment - though frankly, that may actually make it affordable again.
Liar. "What I said ... By: Webproze. on 15 Jun 09, 12:15:25 Liar. "What I said was .....". Usually you know? that when a politician says this, you know they're lying either way.
Doubletalk, a requirement when you are a politician.

Unlike Congresswoman Jan Schakowski she has not said anything. I think PIPA and SOPA are going to destroy first amendment of the constitution of freedom of speech.

We are against illegal immigration reform and we must let them know. Legal immigrants, are a whole other animal. Like M. let the? democrats know that they were leaving, because they ignored the people. America is mostly conservative, no matter what party there in. We must take back America. Next on Obama agenda is you are racist if you are against immigration reform. Just wait for it.

This video is partisan crap. We are the best place on Earth. Not perfect , not ideal but hugely superior to anything anywhere else offers. Of course that can change.? Obama is trying to destroy the U. S. under he guise of fundamentally changing America (to Socialist Communist America). There is nothing wrong with the fundamental form of America we already enjoy. We as the people have to make our voices heard. continued.....

No it isn't. The political spectrum is defined by amount of government control over the economy and society. At the far right would be anarcho-capitalism the far left? is represented by fascism and communism.
By: TheAkashdeepJabandar. on 23 Jan 10, 13:49:02
This is partisan bullshit. America is on her knees right now and the bullet to the back of her head will be continued open border policies and an illegal alien amnesty. BOTH POLITICAL PARTIES SUPPORT AMNESTY? AND OPEN BORDERS so take off your blinkers. Expect Sarah Palin and commentators like Glen Beck, Bill O'Reilly oh and Lou Dobbs, already softening their positions on immigration, to come out in favor of "immigration reform" when the issue is considered again. Goodbye USA.
By: TheAkashdeepJabandar. on 23 Jan 10, 13:32:27
Yeah it is and reminds me of the "free speech zones" created to protect George W Bush from unpleasant exhibitions of actual free speech from the lower orders - ie not east-coast aristocrats like him. George W Bush-a slightly less progressive version of Obama, author of stimulus 1, illegal alien amnesty, new entitlements and the bank bailout - charged to the deficit. The Republican? party only shrieks about conservative values and the constitution when they're out of power.
