Obamacare? Savings? I’ve already gotten money back from my HMO, and denial of care for pre-existing conditions is gone forever. The best part? For the first time ever health insurance companies, just like auto insurance companies, have to compete for our business. That in itself is reason enough to defend Obamacare.
Like Social Security and Medicare, the GOP will fight against any kind of inclusive health care nationally forever.
Don’t talk to me about blaming President Obama for the deficit. Brown University’s Eisenhower Research Project projects the cost of the Iraqi and Afghan wars to be $4 billion. Harvard professor Linda Bilmes says between $4 billion and $6 billion. We were recklessly talked into the Iraq War, which had no weapons of mass destruction, nor any connection between Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden.
When I was a kid I took training from the National Rifle Association in proper gun safety and still have the card I received. The NRA touts gun rights and the Second Amendment, but is just a mouthpiece for the multibillion-dollar American gun industry now. Just check Wayne LaPierre’s solution. More people with guns. Right.
