it's not even about health care. it's about the redneck white trash in this country feeling helpless and ineffectual, but being too stupid to understand why.

Its not about rednecks, its about the pigs who run the insurance companies and their investors. They are the ones along with the doctors who dont give a fuck about peoples problem and all they care about the profits are the ones that hold the interest that healthcare stays private.

People are too fucking dumb to realize that the niggers, spics, and fat white trash already get healthcare paid for by the state every time they're wheeled into the emergency room at the county hospital. So when some sow with her nigglets named Leroy Washington, Leroy Jefferson, Leroy White, and Alex Panzer, shows up because they all have a cold, we pay anyway.

But instead of paying for a relatively inexpensive office visit, we get to pay for an expensive trip to the ER for a routine issue that could have been handled elsewhere.

Some people think they can somehow stop the niggers, spics, and white trash from showing up at the ER. There is one way that can be done. Give them an alternative.

Not all of them, just the ones who will fail to conform. All these out of business stories are made by the media and paid for by the pharmaceutical companies. Because you gotta be dumb to believe stories like that.

House Passes Healthcare Overhaul


"Reporting from Los Angeles and Washington

Delivering a hard-fought victory in President Obama's yearlong pursuit of a national healthcare overhaul, a divided House narrowly approved legislation Sunday night that could reshape the way Americans deal with wellness and illness.

House Democratic leaders proved they could hold the majority caucus together, passing the Senate version of the healthcare legislation, 219-212, after weeks of arm-twisting and politicking."

If I was the president then I would rob the nation flat. I only care about paying little or no taxes and I definitly dont mind the government support. I dont give a damn about the people who complain about high taxes and other shit that does not concearns me. Patriotism, conservatism - fuck that, that has nothing to do with me and I don't want to have anything to do with it, that is why I don't listen to the news and all these bogus politics. I don't give a damn about your ancestors, they are no one to me, like I said, all that I care about is my own interests. As long as I get more and pay less then I am happy. Let the other people who are dumb make the payments. The people who can afford million dollar houses and ferraris should pay for people like me (who don't give a fuck). I don't care about what is right - all I care is what is right for ME.

What I have to say is this to America: if you were stupid enough to get into anykind of debt and mortgage problems then you should also be punished to pay for my government benefits.

And by the way, it is Kiev, not Krakow.

Yes, I am aware of things, but I really choose to do as little as possible with it. This semester I am taking 6 courses and 4 of them are from the humanities field that include World Politics, American History, Latin American History and the Microeconomics. In 3 of these 4 humanities (Lib Arts) courses the professors really emphasize a lot on the fairness and treatment of humanity. Personally I am tired of listening to that crap, in one course I even sleep in the class because I can't stand the professor's yammer on ecology and polution. I am going to college for myself, so I can get the knowledge that will benefit me. If someone is thinking that I will be socially responsible then they are flat wrong.

Don't get me wrong, I love America but I do not like the people who whine, if it was up to me then I would lock them up and deprive them of their negative speech. That's what would Stalin do.

After that, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits with the result the democracy collapses because of the loose fiscal policy ensuing."

Unless this crap is able to be undone by the new repub congress (which will take the majority in 2010) and the new repub Pres (who will be elected in 2012), this could be the day America stopped being free. My people (the real Americans- descended from the original Angle-Saxon pioneers) were too lax about letting in jews, spics etc and this is the result. Think of it as termite damage.

Re: Healthcare - 03/22/10 11:21 AM

I keep hearing "The sky is falling" anytime the Dems try to do anything. The fact is nobody knows exactly what this will do because it is still not fully written (all speculation). If you go to http://factcheck.org/, you will see what it means without any of the Fox news or Glenn Beck spin, or the White House's spin. The Republicans are just pissed that they are no longer in power, and are trying to stop ANY progress until they can badmouth the Dems to get some seats back in November. If they had any intention of making progress they would have offered some suggestions during the process.
They are like the rest of the kids when the Dems said "Fuck you, I'm taking my ball and going home."
The watered down version they are putting through is weak, but it is better than anything the Repubs have been able to come up with. It's a game of chicken for both parties, but at least the Dems played the game.

They are tax exempt, but you aren't. You are the buyer, so you have to pay the sales tax. And, you get the tax write-off for donating to them.

Now, when I buy for a tax-exempt institution, I show the numbers and don't pay the sales tax, no matter who I buy from. Sales tax is really buyer's tax.

Personally I'm sick and tired of paying more in taxes for people who had the same opportunity as me to go to school, get a good job and have the American dream. Make good decisions in life, stop drinking malt liquor and eating fried chicken negroes. Stop having children and selling drugs. The mexicans should stop getting drunk, then beating their wives, thats most of the emergency cost right there. The mexicans breed faster and have bigger litters than the negroes. I didn't think anyone could beat the negroes in baby making but, the mexicans take the crown. The illegals are putting local governments underwater financially because of their hospital cost.

If you want to do something with your life go to school, get a trade, pull your own weight. I knew I had to go to college if I wanted to have anything. In this entitlement society no one believes in work anymore. Don't wait for the government to just give it to you. Welfare and affirmative action have totally crippled this country and it's killing the white working man.

People who are bitching about health care reform are those that do not have insurance. And for those people all I say, GET A FUCKING JOB OR GET A BETTER JOB THAT CAN COVER YOUR LAZY ASS.

Re: Healthcare - 03/23/10 05:26 PM

Looker here H.R Stalin, and the rest of your pinko comrades. President Zulu's first budget will consume 28 percent of the entire GDP state and local governments another 15 percent. While there is some overlap, in 2009, government did consume 40 percent of GDP, that is approaching the peak of World War II. This type of spending is absolutely absurd.

President Sambo is going to repeal the Bush tax cuts and take the income tax rate to near 40 percent. Combined state and local income tax rates can run to 10 percent. For the self-employed,(which I am) payroll taxes add up to 15.2 percent on the first $106,800 for all wages of all workers. Medicare takes 2.9 percent of all wages above that. Then there are the state sales taxes that can run to 8 percent, property taxes, gas taxes, excise taxes, and "sin taxes" on booze, cigarettes and, soon, hot dogs and soft drinks. You don't see government all in the working man's pocket? Maybe you enjoy life in the U.S.S.R but I don't. I should not have to pay for the mud peoples.

Now here comes President Zulu, with his health care. A surtax that runs to 5.4 percent of all earnings of the top 1 percent of Americans, who already pay 40 percent of all federal income taxes. Included also is an 8 percent tax on the entire payroll of small businesses that fail to provide health insurance for employees. I am nowhere near a millionaire but, I make a good living this is going to bleed me dry.

The hardest working and most productive members of this society are bled, a third of all wage-earners pay no U.S. income tax, and Obama plans to free almost half of all wage-earners of all income taxes. Yet, tens of millions get Medicaid, rent supplements, free education, food stamps, welfare and an annual check from our government called an Earned Income Tax Credit, though they never paid a nickel in income taxes.

For all you pinko commies/socialist maybe you enjoy playing for others and good for you. I on the other hand don't, and there are a lot more people that agree with me. Just look at the tea parties and the rise of populism, all this from the grassroots. The myth of the "white working" man is no myth, its real!

I think the only thing our government is good at is taking people's money and screwing shit up. That's why they should have as little control over our economy & our lives as possible.

I'll also say our army is still pretty good at killing people/blowing shit up/scaring other countries.

The cost of a visit to my doctor's office almost doubled today. If the Senate reverses Obama's Medicare-related changes doc says he can undo most of that increase.

It's not yet clear how much the law will costs me total: I think it's just over $10k/year but don't know yet. *Everyone* not on welfare will see costs go up but the majority will be less than that.

Judging by Vietnam and Iraq, not as good as you would like to think.

Is it true that Obama and co. tried to circumvent the House with this healthcare bill? I've been reading that they fucked up in their own bill, in regard to denying children with pre-existing conditions.

I think we have taken a great step forward in health care. As far as the military, our missions have changed, defeating opposing armies is just the start of the mission. I hope we can wrap things up in a couple years and usher in a period of relative peace. The economy is recovering. We will soon be a strong, safe, prosperous, peaceful nation once again. I think things have gone well so far, despite some difficult periods.
