So be it………buh bye………I think Ill go hang out with people who have a brain instead of a smart ass reply to every proposal ever made.

I have always advocated that every person to ever work pays 2 percent of his weekly salary into a fund that is then matched by the employer. This is part of your retirement.

I believe that it's called Social Security…

This happens your entire working life. It starts with your first job at age 16 and ends when you retire.

With the additional funds that are freed up by not having to pay repressive health benefits for the employed the companies are then free to expand their work force. A 5 percent tax is then placed on both Corporations and companies and individuals who then use this money to obtain insurance that has no limits, no deductible and no pre existing conditions. This insurance then travels with you your entire life. It is overseen by a private firm, paid for by both the individuals, companies, corporations and the government and it keeps our existing medical infrastructure in place all the while putting in place oversight that keeps the fraud and waste to a minimum.

Those who refuse to work or cannot work are then covered under Medicare. Medicare part a, b and d. Under all these plans there are copays such as 5 bucks for medicines and 5 bucks for doctors visits etc. To help offset the costs.

I could go on and on but the point of all this is to insure that our current medical establishment which is very good and innovative continues to produce the best doctors and nurses while at the same time guaranteeing that Americans ALL have coverage and that the cost of said coverage is spread equally out by the individual, the employeer and the government in the form of taxes and payroll deductions.

Ultimately the individual pays 7 percent of his income for health care and retirement. The corporations pay the same 7 percent and the government pays the same 7 percent. Effectively paying 21 percent of your income for these two items. A fair scheme that keeps in place capitalism and yet puts America on track for economic expansion by unpenalizing business so that they can hire MORE employees and our economy can expand.

And the second biggest problem with GM is the Union. Not that Unions are bad but that in GM's case they have promised to pay every person who ever works for GM for the rest of their lives and the rest of their kids lives. Its ludicrous. They have so much debt right now because of this communist style workers manifesto called a collective bargaining agreement that the only real solution for GM is bankruptcy.

Im so tired of hearing the left screaming that GM and Ford and Chrysler are the worst run companies ever because they are failing in a big way when gasoline suddenly doubles in a few months. These companies have a whole stable of cars that get 30 mpg. They have to. Its the law. If they are so bad the company should fail. Its how capitalism works. Why is the government bailing them out?

Last year the number one and number two best selling vehicle in America was the SUV and the pickup truck. The big three made lots of trucks and suvs because Thats what Americans were buying. IF……….GM is such a bad company….let them go belly up. If GM bites the dust then the rest of the industry will be much stronger for it because the industry will no longer have the largest or perhaps second largest competitor in the world to deal with and they will all sell more cars.

As for the military style life benefits package the company offered to all its employees they will just have to either bite the bullet or the government can assume this risk and continue to make good on those retired and those fixing to retire. That 20 year old kid whose been working their for 2 years is out of luck.

Unless we want to go the way of communism and let the government run everything its very important that people be in control of their own retirement funds……NOT SOCIAL SECURITY……..these could be put in safe, well managed and heavily overseen funds that are then pulled out 5 years before the person is to retire and the money is sold to the US government and in return we receive government bonds. Thus Americans are buying their own countries debt and once again the debt that we owe is debt that we owe ourselves.
