Don’t go a couple miles per hour over the “speed limit” in the middle of nowhere, that’s $235. But, keep trucking while on your cell phone in traffic, ‘cause that’s a lot cheaper, IF they bother to stop you before your accident!
But of course you don’t have health insurance, or auto insurance, already, so the trip to the ER won’t cost taxpayers or those WITH insurance. (By the way, that “medical” on most auto insurance doesn’t cover YOU if you have a single car accident.)
Republicans are not against taxes, only income and wealth taxes.-When Reagan was elected governor of California, he raised the sales tax from 4% to 5%, a 20% TAX INCREASE.-Recently, Romney said that if he were elected, on day one he would impose a tariff on Chinese imports — another equivalent of a sales tax, which would hurt comnsumers.
gett9ing a ticket is to almost go bankrupt. BUt what it is refering to, Obama-care, is not a tax. Everyone knows it but that was what they had to do to get it passed.THis IS a republican bill. TheGOP has worked to get this for over 20 + years.This bill was written up at the Cato Institute, a conservative think tank, and backed by The Heritage Foundation. That only changed the moment Obama agreed with them and joined them in wanting it.Since the GOP 1st priority is to make Obama fail, they couldn’t agree with him, so they changed
Most people are glad they don’t have to worry about pre-existing conditions. And Like that the insurance can’t drop them if they get extremely ill. I don’t think anyone is complaining about the refund checks they are going to be getting. It’s just that the name has Obama stuck to it. If McCain had won the past election we would be talking about McCain care instead!
@rightisright. Please stop your racism. Sotomayor and Kagen were selected not because of their race but because they bring a sorely needed intelligent liberal slant to the scotus. Thanks to them, you have free healthcare.
The great thing about the “biggest” in reference to money is that we all tend to forget how much more a dollar was worth :back in the day". I can remember taking my girl to first run movies and stopping off later for burgers all for under $2.00. But today, “it’s the biggest expense in theater-going history”.
Eesh. Don’t y’all realize that driving a car is a * privilege* and not a “right” at all? Yes, it’s regulated by the government, but this is something I do go along with as I know that Seat Belts save Lives. It’s become habit for me to always put on my seat belt, because if the police/State troopers catch you not wearing one, they will give you a ticket for that. Not just in Florida – in all States.
