Ah! Another patriot! Someone who is against the kinds of "green businesses" that will stop us from being dependent on terrorist countries for our fuel. Someone who likes the numbers of lung diseases because of pollution, the numbers of dead former forests, poisoned water supplies, lost species, etc. Whatta man!
I will vote for Romney, but I will not be holding my breath expecting
Romney to dismantle 0 bamacare. If Romney doesn't pretty
much follow the Bilderbergers plan for One World Government,
he will meet with an "unfortunate accident". Nothing but America
getting back to Biblical principles will save America from destruction.
And only a minority are going to do that.
This will be used by Republicans just like they have used the abortion issue. They will ask for money and votes using it, then make no real attempts to repeal it.
Republicans introduced it, but when it cam to funding it, they didn't want to pay for it.
Which is one reason why Prohibition was repealed...not enough police to handle the job (not to mention it was a bad and unpopular idea from the start!).
One thing people have to remember, something that Republicans, conservatives, tea-baggers are going to push very hard the next 4 months: that ALL of the American people are going to pay a "tax" for their healthcare.
It's just not true, so don't believe them.
The only people who may pay anything are those who choose not to get covered by any healthcare plan. That's it...very simple.
Since over 80% of Americans already have a healthcare plan, and will most likely continue to pay for healthcare, that means less than 20% of Americans, at most, will pay any penalty.
And that 20% is a high number, because there are already plans in place for many who can't afford healthcare right now, so the number of those who decide not to get healthcare will be lower. So only 12% or less of Americans will ever pay any penalty for not getting any healthcare plan.
Remember...don't be fooled by what Republicans/conservatives say...it's just not true. It's an election year...Republicans are not on the side of the middle-- and lower-classes, women, and the American worker.
How else can they try to win an election, but to distort the facts?
Romneycare, but that's only because the SCOTUS changed the bill. Now the states have to tax their citizens, but don't have to provide them any alternative if they can't afford it. Lovely, just lovely.
No one does so stop the fear mongering. In the US no one is turned down for medical care because they cannot pay. It is illegal to deny emergency care and Medicaid will provide for any low income medical needs if you apply.
" THEY " did not vote for it Because Nobody Was Permitted To Read It ! It got ZERO republican support . ObamaCare is 100% a Democrat Problem ! The Democrats who voted for ObamaCare " Sealed Their Fate " ! We got the House returned and this time around , we will finish the job .
MOST republicans see a real need for healthcare reform ( It's True ) , but EVERYTHING they submitted , really good ideas , were thrown into the trash ! Obama was acting as a Dictator while the House & Senate GAVE HIM EVERYTHING HE WANTED ! They Will " ALL " Pay The Price !
4570GOVT - Obama wanted, as all Progressives do, a single-payer system. It is the most efficient way to handle this issue, and also the most reasonable and fair way to control the out-of-control, spiraling healthcare costs that are crippling so many American families and seniors. So for you to say that the (Republicans) gave him everything he wanted" is a lie, plain and simple. And, by the way, Republicans did indeed have a long history of wanting exactly that (a single-payer system) but threw it by the wayside when the party was taken over by the extremist right-wing fringe.
"plans in place for many who can't afford healthcare right now". And just who is going to foot the bill for their coverage???? Stop sweeping things you don't want to admit under the rug.
jojac: Right now, YOU are footing the bill for their coverage. How? By paying exorbitant health insurance costs and exorbitant hospital and other healthcare costs. The only way to bring YOUR COSTS down is for everyone to be "in the pool" of insureds.
When 0 bumacare goes into full effect tax payers will be paying for the freeloaders. And healthcare cost will rise, there is no way to avoid that. How does putting non payers in the pool of the insured briing the cost to those who pay down. That is really the 'new math"? Educate us on this miracle math.
Noticed you did not include the huge amount of Illegals, Anchor Babies and others in your equasion having no insurance at all. With a President and a corrupt Attorney General refusing to support border enforcement only for the purpose of enticing votes nothing will change except placing us farther in debt with no plan to pay for any of it.
So if I can't afford insurance, I get taxed. Or penalized. Or something. In 2014, the fine, fee, tax, whatever, is $95. No big deal. In 2016, its over $900. A family will be charged over $2,000 per year in penalties. The plan 'adds' millions more, but no extra doctors to handle them. This 'bill' is a failure and was crafted to be a stepping stone to Single Payer.
On Mitt Romney (information to pass on and share with others)
After going to both Harvard Business School and Harvard Law School simultaneously, he passed the Michigan bar, but never worked as an attorney.
As a venture-capitalist, Romney’s first major business deal involved investing in a start-up office supply company with one store in Massachusetts that sold office supplies. That company, called Staples, now has over 2,000 stores and employs...over 90,000 people.
Romney or his company Bain Capital (using what became known as the “Bain Way”) would go on to perform the same kinds of business miracles again and again, with companies like Domino’s, Sealy, Brookstone, Weather Channel, Burger King, Warner Music Group, Dollarama, Home Depot Supply, and many others.
Got your calculators handy? Let’s recap:
Volunteer campaign worker for his dad’s gubernatorial campaign for 1 year.
Unpaid intern in Governor’s office for 8 years.
Mormon missionary in Paris for 2 years.
Unpaid bishop and state president for his church for 10 years.
No salary as president of the Olympics for 3 years.
No salary as MA governor for 4 years.
That’s a grand total of 28 years of unpaid service to his country, his community and his church. Why? Because that’s the kind of man Mitt Romney is! And in 2011 Mitt Ro...

That’s a grand total of 28 years of unpaid service to his country, his community and his church. Why? Because that’s the kind of man Mitt Romney is! And in 2011 Mitt Romney gave over $4 million to charity, almost 19% of his income; Obama gave 1%; Joe Biden gave $300 or.0013%. This is real character vs. well you know what!
Romney may not be the best representative the Republicans could have selected. At least we know what religion he is, and that he won’t desecrate the flag, bow down to foreign powers, or squander my money on vacations. I know he has the ability to turn this financial debacle that the “Tax-And-Spend President” has gotten us into. We didn’t know that when Obama said he’d give us change, he meant nickels and dimes, and he would get the big bucks.
We won’t like all the things necessary to recover from this debt, but someone with Romney’s background can do it.
BUT, on the minus side, he never was a “Community Organizer”, never took drugs or smoked pot. Never got drunk. Did not associate with communists or terrorists. Nor did he attend a church whose pastor called for God to damn the US… There were many others that preceded Romney. Guys like Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Glenn H, Curtiss, Sears, J.C. Penney, William Kellogg, Wrigley, William Boeing, Donald Douglass and a whole army of hard working, creative innovators that built this great nation that we used to enjoy, before Obama. And, just like Romney, they didn't always succeed on the first try but they persevered and got the job done for the benefit of the country and all of us. And, just like Romney, if you succeed you get the rewards for your efforts. If you fail, you pick up the pieces and try again and again until you get it right. Now, we need to help Romney pick up the pieces and put our greatest nation on earth, back together again!
Even Romney and his senior campaign worker doesn't think the healthcare mandate is a tax!
"One potential wrinkle in any GOP plans to call the individual mandate a new Democratic tax: Romney's health care overhaul in Massachusetts also included a mandate.
"This was a plan that, that Gov. Romney supported," White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union." "It's something that I would think that he would have been proud of."
Pressed on the issue Monday, Romney senior campaign adviser Eric Fehrnstrom told MSNBC that the presumptive GOP presidential nominee agrees "with the dissent written by Justice (Antonin) Scalia which very clearly stated that the mandate was not a tax." Fehrnstrom bucks Republican line on 'Obamacare' as 'tax'
Asked repeatedly if Romney agrees with Obama and Democrats that the penalty tied to the mandate is not tax, Fehrnstrom eventually said, "That's correct." — CNN
I know I've had healthcare for the last 47 years and I will dropping my $800 a month plan to pay the tax. Why wouldn't I? It will be cheaper and I'll be running to the ER every time i get a runny nose, feel a bit off or if I cut a finger. I'll be running to get all my physicals and any other test I can think of to run up the liberal bill as high as I possibly can because this is what you liberals wanted, and now you got it. tax me all you want, I'll make it work in my favor one way or another.
No, the screw job was already done by the liberals that wanted this idiotic law. I'm just going to use it to the fullest. That's what you liberals want.

Deadbeat.
No.
But his deadbeat, slacker attitude shows the maturity of a teenager who was just grounded by his parents.
