My favorite are the ones who say only bad actors are upset with the dems and dnc.

Would have been nice if his new show was more like the Colbert Report. Not necessarily in the character but rest of it

They’re pro anything that attacks American foes. So 🤷

no you don’t understand, this is what the payment processors say is allowed now. Nothing people want just unabashed racism simulatiors

Yeah but have you considered this, from Ken Martin’s biggest Stan?

What?

Did you literally just download the PDF and search for those three things, see 0, and then close it?

Because even just skimming thru any of the 193 pages would show you none of it’s is about specific policy positions, largely because with 4 years to the next presidential election, that would be entirely useless…

Like, we do not want the DNC picking policy, that’s what the candidate we vote for in primaries do.

A large organization like the DNC dictating policy for politicians to follow and using their influence as a party to get those people elected is what got us here in the fuckign first place

The paper is going to seem boring and it’s not going to have what you think, be cause it wasn’t written for us, and it wasn’t written up to be a list of reasons why Kamala lost, be ause everyone reading it would be very aware of why that happened.

The point of the paper was what a nonbiased organization could do to fix shit.

So (again, fucking obviously) it’s not going to list policy positions to push.

I’m impressed using trump to try and make dems look better for their failures 😂

Yeah it was but weren’t they earlier bragging about the changes/improvements they’ve been making that came out of the same report?

YeahI can when you’ve ignored everything people have presented you. Especially when you have done nothing to warrant any additional effort.

Also, realize that universal health insurance doesn’t equate to no private for-profit insurance companies or that there is a single-payer. For example Germany has a multi-payer model with both private nonprofit and public for-profit insurance options. IIRC Japan is privately owned nonprofit with single payer. And Italy is single payer with a sort of hybrid public/private delivery structure. Shit is complicated

It’s really not in other places as it’s usually supplement insurance people can get not their only options. American only makes it hard because it’s designed to milk citizens dry or allow them to die/suffer because they can’t afford it after the insurance they pay for does nothing.

Btw saying it’s complicated is just your opinion and needs citations.

Not only denounced endorsed the opponent in same post. She has the worst political instincts

If you have any facts to the contrary please provide them. It’s well documented to be designed for insurance companies not the people, if it were we’d have universal health care like the rest of the civilized world instead of being beholden to for profit companies in order to get treatments

But Lee said on Wednesday ​that a certain union was “crossing the line” when it claimed a share of a company’s operating profit ⁠even before income tax is paid.

“There is a role for the government when anyone crosses the line to make sure they conduct ​themselves responsibly for the good of the larger community,” he told a cabinet meeting.

So he’s going to be on the side of the union not samsung right?..

It’s not at all comparable to Social Security. One is an actual social safety net designed to have the government provide at least a small amount of safety net.

The ACA, Romneycare and the heritage plan are all about not providing any safety for the citizens but ensuring the health insurance industry is taken care of at the expense of the citizens. This is simply because they can’t handle the thought of actually supporting citizens with an actual Healthcare System people can afford.

Hell the Heritage Foundation was proud of Romneycare and only attacked the ACA as it was a win for dems as it was their plan and couldn’t admit the dems did it because of how racist they are.

The idea of pooling the purchasing power of individuals

Except the ACA fails to accomplish anything close to that. It’s not designed for it simply requiring minimum levels of coverage. It isn’t even an option in most states. As others have stated it doesn’t matter if a person is insured if getting treatment still bankrupts them.

Obama told host Matt Lauer that “when you actually look at the bill itself, it incorporates all sorts of Republican ideas. I mean a lot of commentators have said this is sort of similar to the bill that Mitt Romney, the Republican governor and now presidential candidate, passed in Massachusetts. A lot of the ideas in terms of the exchange, just being able to pool and improve the purchasing power of individuals in the insurance market, that originated from the Heritage Foundation. …”

It’s not a myth but sure keep saying it ignoring all the facts in front of you

or used grenade launchers instead of the mortars we were forced to stop using out of civilian casualties concerns

Partner and I would be done with ours if that had actually happened. Instead we just got them restarted under Biden!

He even wants to help others kill with the desire to increase navy ship building

It’s really amazing how those people who only use ACA/Obamacare as a shinying accomplishment know absolutely nothing about it

Romneycare was also based on the heritage foundation plan for insurance. So again it’s still the dems only implementing a republican plan.

Also Romney didn’t sign it which is one reason it’s hilarious it got his name and he’s proud of it.

Again is this a critic of Maine if this is the best they can do to be a progressive or just the only one who said yes to running when asked.
