Sure there is...you just don't accept the concept of decency

your fellow man and woman.

Decency is admirable. That doesn't make it the job of the federal
government however. You can't legislate decency and government is
absolutely the wrong place to try and provide it.



Government is nothing more than people and their policies. I still
haven't
seen any reasonable ideas from you that would help low-income workers
secure decent health care coverage or a decent retirement, when every
dime
they earn goes to feed and shelter themselves and their families. The
days
of upward mobility for tens of millions of workers are pretty much
over.

If only them thar people up there in Washington would start acting
decently
and responsibly to serve the needs of ALL the people. The first
thing the
Govt. needs to do is get out of the jobs and cars and healthcare
businesses
and plant the seeds for entrapanerial ventures that create products
and
jobs.

Earn a dollar, then spend a dollar. That's the way it should be done.



Right...because the private sector has been doing so much of late to
create jobs...

Actually, I'd prefer we get the health care insurers out of the health
care insurance business altogether...they serve no useful purpose.



It's guys like you who are dead set against the private sector
succeeding.
The ability to conceive and deliver a product or service the consumer
needs
or wants, leads to job creation and often great wealth to the creator
of the
jobs. Win-Win for everyone. Until the union creeps in and removes the
incentive to work hard and EARN merit increases.


Do you insure your car, your gentleman's estate, your boat, your
life? Why
not your health?



Health insurers do not deliver a product the consumer needs or wants.
Health care is already out there...it exists. Health insurance adds an
unnecessary middle-man factor.

The same could be said about car insurers or home/property insurers. I
realize both include liability (tort) insurance but that's another topic.
