  • when you think about it medicare as it is right now is "medicare for all" pretty much "all" people get it when they reach age 65 - - and it works because working people pre pay for the benefits they will get when they have reached the predetermined age for benefits.


    if they give healthcare that is roughly equal to what people on medicare get without those people pre paying for those benefits - it wont be medicare no matter what they call it


    also most of the idiots calling for it probably dont even realize that you still have to pay a monthly premium for all but part A - - - even for people age 65 medicare is not "free" - - they take a monthly premium right off the top of your monthly social security - - - - that nice yearly mailer you get from Social Security telling you what to expect each month when you reach Social Security Retirement Age - - forget it - thats not what you are going to get - you will get that minus right around $150 each month for that "free" medical so you can go see your regular doctor

    if it sounds too good to be true......it’s socialism....

  • My question is... if She wants to get rid of private health care and have a "Medicare" for all program... will that cover everything at 100% or will there still be supplemental insurance that people will have to buy to cover the difference? Very confusing.

    they never actually said it would be free....they just said everyone would get it.....

  • ANTIFA did actually show up at Sturgis. It was a VERY small group & they were surrounded by cops to prevent getting their asses kicked. Wasn’t a big deal. Several videos on YouTube about it. This short video was rather amusing - one of the idiots kicked a bike driving by - didn’t go too well for him...

    Good point, universal health care and we can all guess who will pay and be forced to pay more. A dance of words leading to "fair share" and abuse leading to a lower standard of living for those who pay more.

    if the cops weren’t there he would have stopped breathing at about the 1 minute mark. We don’t want cops but we can hide behind them.

  • So - - - I have a thought


    When you register a vehicle you give them all of the information that identifies that particular vehicle and in return you are given a registration card or ID that goes with that specific car to show when needed to prove it is your car and that its registered. - - the ID/registration card is only good for that one purpose


    So why not do the same thing with voting?


    When a person registers to vote, which coincidentally is often done through the DMV, give them a voter registration card - - an ID of sorts that proves the holder is the person that is registered and also allows for verification that it is only used once for voting in any given election - - and would be an ID that can not be used for any other purpose and does not provide any sensitive personal information that could be used for anything bad- - just a Name and a unique Voter Registration Number - VRN


    and most importantly it needs to be free and it needs to be given to the person at the time they register to vote


    The main arguments I have heard against any kind of voter ID are that it can disenfranchise people who cant easily go and get conventional ID's or that they cost money


    the way I propose gets rid of those complaints - the fact that you would get the VRN when you register to vote eliminates any complaint that it would be hard for people to get since it is already a requirement that you register to vote and being free and included as a part of registering to vote eliminates any cost excuses


    sure it wouldn't eliminate all voter fraud - someone will always find a way, but it could help cut back on people doing things like voting twice (like once by mail at their home and again in person in their college town) - - if they had a unique VRN it could be blocked out after the first votes were put in the system and not be used again and if they tried to register a second time - there could be checks that removed the first VRN from the system keeping people from registering in different states

  • A a side thought - - if they actually went to an all by mail voting system wouldn't that disenfranchise all of the homeless people that the Democrats try to round up to vote in elections?


    How can you vote by mail in a mail only system if you don't have a place to receive mail?


    hell if these people cant even get an ID? - - - - - - -

  • Its “Republicans” like this that has got us in the fucked is mess we have today. Go ahead and change to a Democrat you turncoat butthead!! You would have been a better choice than Biden!!

    I might not be right but I can sure sound like it

  • This is really scary apparently the leaders of these cities endorse this? No wonder people are leaving the cities. According to Nadler the violence is a myth.

    Can't 'like' it --- interesting that the NEWS just wont show any of this. Young Black Boy shot and killed a young White Boy --- both under ten years old, guess who's giving and who's receiving makes a big difference. Sad.
