LarLar, the reason for the expense is the private companies you think must stay in charge of the way things are. They have over 3 times the administrative overhead as Medicaid. They are constantly on the lookout for ways to avoid paying out benefits. They pay their executives huge salaries. They hold back payments to hospitals and doctors for months, sometimes over a year. They couldn’t care less if things stay the way they are because their only goal is profits high enough to please Wall Street. They do not view the people they insure as anything but a source of money and expense centers if they need to file large claims.

And let me get this straight. You believe the poor should not be allowed to reproduce. Is that a good way to rephrase the “I donâ€™t believe in having children until you can afford to financially support having children.” statement?

We are told all the time that we are the richest most powerful nation on the planet. And yet we don’t have the money to provide healthcare to helpless children?

Which is it, rich and powerful or bankrupt and impotent?

” people who cannot afford health insurance cannot be constantly blaming the president”
————–

Who else should they blame for veto?
Oh, yes, they should blame themselves, of course.

Honestly, people who cannot afford health insurance cannot be constantly blaming the president. Do you want a government controlled health coverage? I am opposed to that completely.

I don’t believe in having children until you can afford to financially support having children. Not that the price is the fault of the parents, but something should be done about the actual cost of health insurance and/or working on why the cost is so high and working on a better answer to lowering the cost instead of offering more free health insurance to people who can’t pay for it for their children.

Couldn’t this be a state issue anyway? I know some states give certain amounts of health insurance to children in public schools. Why does this have to be a federal issue?

Are Grassley and Hatch (proponents of the bill) now considered moonbats?

N-bob – And QandQ isn’t Wingnut propaganda? Some moonbats call the WaPost a Bush mouthpiece paper, Kristols op-ed Bush lovefest from Sunday is an example. The WashingtonTimes came out against the Libby commutation, are they Democrat sycophants?

I donâ€™t believe that you intentionally post Democratic propaganda. However, in this case I believe that you have done so. See Mr. MqQuainâ€™s post on QandO.

Joe – You need to check the story link. The link goes to an old tobacco government civil suit.

Hard to argue that he’s a compassionate conservative or even a true-believing Christian after this one. His priorities reveal his true intent- to enlarge government spending for defense, give generous nobid contracts to big donors and allow Republican earmarks, while vetoing a measure that would help the working poor insure their kids. Its just another example of government for the base, “the haves and the have-mores”.
