if republicans and their backers just thought for a second and supported universal, single-payer health insurance, then businesses wouldn’t have to deal with health care at all.
And seeing as that is the only system that can survive, it makes no sense to delay the inevitable. Don’t worry, though, there will be plenty of other issues the parties can fight over.
One business does not want that, Healthcare. They have spent millions of dollars protecting their turf. Politicians have pocketed a bundle accepting donations for blocking short and long term cost saving that would benefit us all.
Its actually the other way around: Big Business rides the gubbermint like Seattle Slew. Like Joe Biden once said we have socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor.
And to what end are we killing the mule? So that Obama’s supporters can treat themselves to unlimited, unearned benefits while seeing to it that their children and grandchildren are forced to pay their bills. At every turn, Obama has refused to ask the Entitlement Class flea baggers to “give up” anything unless he’s permitted to drain the blood of the small businesses that are our economic backbone. What makes these sponges think they have any moral right to participate in determining this country’s future?
Let me tell you how it will be There’s one for you, nineteen for me ‘Cause I’m the taxman, yeah, I’m the taxman
Should five per cent appear too small Be thankful I don’t take it all ‘Cause I’m the taxman, yeah I’m the taxman
If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street, If you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat. If you get too cold I’ll tax the heat, If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet.
Don’t ask me what I want it for If you don’t want to pay some more ‘Cause I’m the taxman, yeah, I’m the taxman
Now my advice for those who die Declare the pennies on your eyes ‘Cause I’m the taxman, yeah, I’m the taxman And you’re working for no one but me.
Business never had it so good. Just look at the DOW. Taxes are the lowest ever. They stopped paying their fair share years ago and shifted the tax burden unto we , the people.
The only thing wrong with this cartoon is that the government jockey would be facing backwards in the saddle! No doubt while muttering the immortal words of the miscreant Obama, “You didn’t build that!”
the new printed regulations for Obamacare make a stack 8 feet tall…!! Obama will enforce food control….part of Obamacare. the Feds will force grocery suppliers to measure calories and print labels on all items…fresh fruits,veggies, deli foods, anything sold that is food or an item used in making foods. - This is the consequences of the central government trying to be Nanny and Policeman over every detail of our formerly “private lives”…..it is IMO a Liberal-Disease that runs over into mayors like Bloomberg! We worker-slaves-taxpayers are nincompoops needing “guardians”!

With 2014 Obamacare regs around the corner, this stallion is going to intentionally break his leg.

Barack Obama’s administration treats the people, who put them in power, like a rented mule.
