Mikek Sure. That's the heart of the problem. Not the billions spent by the big corporations trying to get every last dime out of some guy who can barely feed his family. You're really either stupid or a ****. |

Medicine spends about 4 times as much lobby money into our politicians as the military industrial complex. And, your conclusion is that we should not regulate hospitals, insurance companies, or equipment manufacturers, or allow Medicare to negotiate prices with them. Also, according to you, big money flowing to politicians is just fine. Try to pay attention. I never said bribing congress was OK. On the contrary I have been saying that is why we are in as much trouble as we are in. There is nothing that is much more regulated than the medical industry, what we don't do is make the system any cheaper. The way it is set up, it will always be getting more expensive. If I could wave a wand, I would outlaw advertising for candidates, lawyers and the whole medical establishment. Try to be intelligent. Oh yeah, you can't. If you read the ****ing article you'd know how things can be fixed. If you could waive a magic want, I'd rather have a hellfire shoved up my ass. |

You're really either stupid or a ****. The top 1% own something like half the country. Sounds like the folks who are living off welfare checks probably don't own much, or have much to look forward to in terms of helping their kids get an education or having a retirement or living in anything resembling comfort. Those are naturally occuring consequences. But the fact that the middle class is under siege by the wealthy is something we should be paying attention to, since our economy depends on a healthy middle class. Otherwise, we're going to become Mexico. |
