i pay the same. haven't noticed my insurance "sky rocketing"
the problem in "affordable healthcare" has ZERO to do with insurance or hospitals are doctors or anyone in the medical profession.. it has to do with a legal system that is in desperate need of tort reforms.
sorry man, i'm sitting right next to a guy who was the CFO of Blue Cross / Blue Shield for many years. they don't make real profits from what they charge. their margins are very small.

So you are okay with giving your money to those rich fucks so they can cancel you when you get sick... allow people to die that have paid in... But it's not okay to make sure "you and your entire family" are taken care of, if you can't afford it or if the insurance company "chooses" to drop you.

Huh??
i'm totally fine.
i object to paying the health insurance of someone who always seems to have nice wheels wheels on their car, the latest designer clothes, all the newest, neatest mobile gadgets but wants to tell me that health care costs too much.
how about people start making common sense shit a priority in their lives? wouldn't that be "CHANGE"

Huh? The rich get taxed more now, it's impossible to argue this. Just because I can use company loop holes to pay less tax, doesn't mean I still don't pay a higher percentage of tax than a poor person.

you're insane. you clearly have zero clue what you are talking about. you are confusing tax rates with what is actually paid.

And a flat tax system, would mean the rich pay less and the poor pay more.
|
uhmm.. ok,.. you just out-insaned yourself. if everyone pays 10%... everyone pays 10%. its not real difficult math.

Trickle down economics doesn't work, it never did.. not even a tiny bit. You can not give tax breaks to the super rich or give them more money.

you are stating opinion as fact.

It does not produce more jobs, it does not fund the eco, and they do not give anything to the poor.

raising taxes and chasing people offshore as we have been doesn't help the economy either.
you seem to have this very marxist attitude about big companies.
i respect your dream. hopefully you will one day live in a society where no one succeeds. where the Microsoft's of the nation aren't there creating 100's of 1000's of jobs across the globe and giving more philanthropically than any organization or private individual ever has in the history of the planet.
that seems to be the world you think is best.

Tax free donations so they can lower overall tax brackets in different Corps they own, isn't giving to the poor.
|
so .. huh? giving to the poor is not giving to the poor?
really?
i am starting to suspect blunt force trauma to the head. feel dizzy? nauseous? tired? vision blurry?
are you sure?

Tax breaks work for the middle class and small business owners, which are the people that actually produce the most jobs in America and the people that spend the most money.

i don't entirely disagree with this. i understand how many jobs are created by small business.
