Perhaps Obama has a 41% JAR because this guy is right. We may be offended by what he says but is it true?
I think it is, and the Obama people, like Reid and Pelosi, depend on it. Why else would anyone say 'you gotta pass this bill before you can read it' unless, like Gruber, they had nothing but contempt for the American voter?
But that could mean doctor's making money and a profit and all and I know how distasteful that concept is to many on the left.
So...is the overturning of the Canadian HC system building up steam up there?Not to burst your bubble, but that's not an "article" offering a Canuck perspective - that's a letter to the editor of a newpaper expressing one idiot's view of Obama. The fact the letter writer is in British Columbia simply verifies the utter idiocy of his musings.
Canada has it's own empty suit, it's own unqualified clown, running the federal Liberal Party here and we don't need America's left-over crap cluttering up our environment.
I appreciate many Americans don't like Justin Beiber, but that's no reason to deport Obama our way.
What are jobs hoe?
You mean those who do not understand it and fall prey to ignorant talking points?Most of us would call it a radical wealth redistribution and massive Central govt. agenda.
Yet it did not tell you that the public embraced it when Obama was elected twice?The elections should have told even people like you that the public rejects it.
You have't got a clue. It was not conservative thinking that established this nation it was progressive thinking just at progressive thinking brought equal rights, ended segregation, made interracial marriage, gay marriage, gay rights etc. etc. possible. You know the stuff conservatives and bigots oppose.This isn't a liberal nation, it is conservative and when conservatives run they win
You dont think the Democrats can take back the Senate by 2016 if not then 2020? Or in your view "has the American public woken up to this terrible moderate Democrat agenda and will never give them anything again"?
home. Home. home. Fingers and mind don't always work together.
Future losses mean nothing today.What happens when the GOP looses the Senate in the future? Will they "still be waking up"?
Why bother reading it when no one could possibly understand it. It should have been a s simple as everyone is covered under medicare.Nancy Pelosi admitted that nobody in Congress even bothered to read it on the Democratic side.
WTF?Bailing out the Unions are liberal policies
No, they are just ignorant talking points to the mindless minions who know and understand nothing more than conservative talk radio and Fox news.Wealth redistribution and class warfare are liberal policies
Everything is about the big bad scary "s word".
But you failed to answer my question, so I guess I'll ask again: "You dont think the Democrats can take back the Senate by 2016 if not then 2020? "
Didn't you get the memo?
The public is only smart when they vote republican agendas. :roll:
ACA is a liberal policy and that is a problem. Bailing out the Unions are liberal policies and those are a problem, Wealth redistribution and class warfare are liberal policies and those are problems. Obama's results are a disaster as are all Progressive policies because they destroy individual incentive
It took every stretch and twist of every trick known to American politics and law, and liberals still had to pass the ACA in the middle of the night. Nancy Pelosi admitted that nobody in Congress even bothered to read it on the Democratic side. Too many silly, stupid Americans didn't even know what was really happening.
The smoke-and-mirror posturing and blatant lies caught up with them, and now they're paying the price.
Republicans were just awarded the task of shredding the ACA in its ridiculous form, and destroying Obama's attempt to rig American politics for the foreseeable future.
At the same time hypocrisy is always a two way street. I distinctly remember it was the right saying that voters were stupid and just wanted their government benefits (hell, in my more...uhm...upset moments, I probably said it myself). Let's face it, both sides will claim that voters are stupid when they vote for the other side.
Not according to this article and others. All you have left is your pretense.
That would be a better system. It would return more jobs hoe than tax cuts would.
But this is about the architect of Obamacare deliberately obfuscating the contents and lying about them, just as Obama did by claiming "If you like your plan, you can keep your plan'. They are openly saying to the American voter claiming they are too 'stupid' to understand what's in the bill, and Obama still gets 41%. If a President can lie and call the American people stupid yet still get 41%, doesn't Gruble have a very strong point?But this JAR cycle is nothing new. I seem to recall the last presidents JAR was even lower than Obama's, as a wave of democrats took the House for the first time in a decade. I am reminded of an old John Prine lyric, "And all of the news just repeats itself."
Speaking of the stupidity of the American voter, here's a little article I ran across from a Canuck perspective.

You are simply wrong. The PPACA was passed with the intent to address a problem--sick people have no "individual incentive" if they cannot get treatment because they had a history of cancer, heart issues, diabetes, etc. and were either ineligible for insurance or were so highly rated that it was unaffordable. Obama was willing to not have an individual mandate but Reid refused to pass any legislation that did not include it. Without the mandate, the PPACA would not have been such a disaster. The market would have have adjusted more naturally. There have been other reports over the years that Obama was willing to compromise on certain things with the GOP but either Harry or Nancy would chain him to the post, mostly Harry. One of the first major changes you will see to the PPACA now that Harry is out of blocking power is the repeal of the medical device tax that will clear the Senate with democratic support. You will see a GOP minimum wage increase offered up which is a "liberal wealth redistribution" mechanism.
It happens over and over. We have an incompetent and corrupt federal government. Voters give power to one group. When their incompetence and corruption are displayed, they give power to the other group. Voters really are stupid. They blindly follow the system setup by the two political parties and never fix anything. Government gets worse and worse, political parties get more powerful and voters do the same thing over and over.

Not at all, because we did it the right way, more than 50 years ago. It's not as affordable as it once was, but there isn't a single Canadian who'd trade our system for yours, particularly not now. But there is a definite push to allow "for-profit" medical services to set up shop here. There are for-profit services for things the government doesn't fund/cover, but there's also a push to have for-profit services for things the government does cover, so that people don't have such long waits if they can afford to pay for it themselves, but that is currently illegal under our system, forcing those with money to travel to the US to beat waiting lists.
Only if you want simple answers.So the answer is, Canada likes its liberal HC system.
