The thing that really is going to bankrupt the country is the entitlements. That was an 80 year process where nobody was willing to say no and nobody was willing to actually pay for it. They just passed the cost on to the next generation. Minor stuff like the 4 or 5 wars were trivial since they have an end. There is no end to the entitlements and they will gobble up an ever increasing part of the GDP until we fix the problem or until the country actually does bankrupt itself. This medical insurance boondoggle is just more grease for the slippery slope. To start with, does anyone really think congress will actually make the Medicare cuts part of the "savings" are based on? I think you're right in the long run... entitlements need to be dealt with appropriately. That doesn't mean ending them, ala GWB moving them to the stock market. The "cuts" are mostly for waste and fraud, and I think some of them, perhaps even a significant portion of them will be acted upon. One can take the extremely pessimistic view that they won't be of course. Do you think the insurance companies won't restructure the "Cadillac plans" enough by 2018 (the current "cut in" data) that they avoid that tax? I'm not a big fan of the current bill in it's entirety, but portions of it are good and it can be fixed, much like other programs are fixed after the initial legislation passes. Do you think they will actually raise any of the taxes necessary to fund this? On the rich, I hope so. They can afford it. If so, you have been living in a cave for the last 40 years. No... mostly nice houses. :) All the spending is immediate and the funding is years down the road. Well, that's an exaggeration. Much of the funding of many programs is collected as taxes yearly. It's "down the road," but not necessarily years down the road. There is also no restraint on what insurance companies will charge, only the mandate that they have to cover more people. They would do that tomorrow ... if we were willing to pay for it. This bill makes sure we will. You will see this October when the new policies come out. The election in November. Any questions about how that will come out? Yes, we need to regulate them. This is one item that needs to get fixed via legislation. However, if a public option was included, we wouldn't need as much regulation. It's wildly popular with the public, but for some reason the Dems in the Senate are afraid of doing what's popular (and right). -- Nom=de=Plume |

The mesiah has spent, now you must pay. the money was spent before obama ever took office. you're just too economically illterate to know that. it's simpler and easier to blame it on the darkie |

You work? yep. thinks that all working people are lazy...cant believe we actually work Since Obama and the corrupt Congress has spent much more than Bush even thought of spending, uh...wrong. at least they spent it HERE. bush ****ed it away in iraq. and look how the iraqis love us for saving their country!! wasnt that trillion well spent! and bush set up the TARP program. obama just implemented it And interest rates will definitely be higher. What are you going to do then? There will be no money for bailouts, no money for healthcare. The government if it is the banker for healthcare, will just keep the money and meter out a minimum of heathcare. What has the stimulus accomplished? Other than keeping overpaid government workers on the payrole. we're already headed for collapse of healthcare. if the GOP had a plan they would have done something. they didn't. |

Duhh... they're currently at historic lows, so that's not much of a leap in logic. They can't go lower than zero. Obama spent FAR less than Bush. Interesting how you right nuts forget about the $10T in tax cuts for the rich and the Iraqi war's $6T. Not as rate/time. For rate over time, Obama is debt-spending more than 4 times faster. By the end of 2010, 2 years, Obama will have debt spent about the same as Bush did in 8 years. to keep the US economy afloat. bush poured a TRILLION into iraq what did that get us? any more jobs? more security? anything at all for a TRILLION dollars? "No money for healthcare." So, a public option or even better a single-payer system would have 100s of billions. Nope, can't do that, right? Eventually, when you can't pay for something you lose it. Just takes time. which was already happening in healthcare, with double digit increases over the last 10 years |

I would not dispute that there are many on the "wealthy right" who would like to totally destroy the "worker class" in this country so they can build a new worker class willing to work for peanuts, with virtually no benefits...ala the Wal-Mart model. They'd like nothing better than a return here to 19th Century employer-employee relationships, where the employees are no better off than workers in China and much of the rest of the Pacific Rim, India, Africa, and Central America. The wealthy right, after all, doesn't think it is wealthy enough. |

Just takes time. which was already happening in healthcare, with double digit increases over the last 10 years Yep. Might be again. Work out home prices since about 1970 using the government published inflation tables. Then see if you can find a property remotely at that price where you live. People need health care, they don't need most other business the same way, So health care will track real inflation, not the bogus governemnt numbers. But there is the point, do you want corrupt corporates to rip you off? Or corrupt big fat government to rip you off?

Don't forget democrates voted for Iraq too. And TARP. sure we voted for iraq. because bush was a convincing liar. just like he was when he put the tax cuts in for the rich. "No money for healthcare."

You don't see any advertising targeted to the unemployed or down and out, do you? if this is the case why hasnt the middle class had a pay increase in 10 years even though productivity has gone up 25%?
