    …and the USFL (pro football league). He sold the other owners on a plan to take on the NFL. In the end he, and his fellow owners, lost “bigly.” ESPN has a 30 for 30 episode on this that is instructive in regards to both his salesmanship and his easy to forecast future flameouts.

    We’re just sitting here waiting for Trump’s White House to fail.

    ACA has flaws such as being based around Republican and Democrats thinking of the market in relation to healthcare a sure fail. Time to move over to Medicare for all as it was intended. If the healthcare industry wants to stay alive they must turn to being non-profit status.

    @Night-Gaunt49 Totally agree with you with the addition that we will need a tax to pay for it. 5-10% sales tax on EVERYTHING with the stipulation that each year it will be reviewed and if there is a surplus, the tax will be reduced. You will need to ensure the politicians cannot raid this tax to pay something else, we all know how politicians love to buy votes. Also need limits on end of life care, if it only keeps you alive with little hope of improvement, you’re allowed to pay your own way, but Medicaid will not cover it. With proper funding we won’t risk what Canada experiences where you stuck waiting years for hip or knee replacements. Plastic surgery and other elective treatments will all be out of pocket.

    First we can tax all holdings and earnings here and globally of the rich to super rich. Graduated income tax increasing geometrically the more rich they are. Like it should be, like Thomas Jefferson suggested so long ago.
