@narowminded – correction, we are a democratic republic

The KKK is having a big parade in honor of their Idol Donald Trump!! Russia has confessed they were in contact with the Trump Campaign. Amerikkka will be little Russia.

So you are expecting Trump to take away health care from millions, cut back the regulations that discovered Wells Fargo fake accounts and stop the policy that has reduced illegal immigration. I really can’t figure that one out, you want make illegal immigration easier? You think Trump won’t use executive orders? You think Trump will yank us from the Iran deal and let them make nuclear weapons then default on all of our trade deals with no issue. You can whine about winning all you want, but holding the president to one term never happened and thanks to W and Trump, Obama’s legacy will look great.

What do you tell those people on Obamacare who are dying of cancer?

Actually we are a constitutional republic that operates with some of the same principals of a democracy. Pure democracy is equal to anarchy and mob rule which is why our founders settled on the idea of a constitutional republic. Unfortunately the left has convinced enough young people that we have an actual democracy which is why we now have mobs trying to burn down loot and destroy cities to protest the fact that they are mad that their subjective truth is different from reality.

“Paul Ryan just announced that as part of repealing Obamacare he plans to phase out Medicare and replace it with private insurance for retirees.”

You can’t spell Kaiser, but you can serve one.

The USA is rated 46th in quality of healthcare for it’s citizens. Obamacare is the start of a system to correct that. I wonder what Trump has in mind to correct our healthcare system?.

Obama…never heard of him… everything he did is dust in the wind!

Erase it all!!!!!

the big increase in premium and jump in deductables help sink hilliary [ say thank you bho]

narrowminded

Yeah, it’s a republic. Increasingly like the USSRepublics was, like the Chinese People’s Republic. All that says is that the government operates in the name of representatives of the people rather than directly by them. We started out as a democratic (meaning all citizens, majority and minority, had rights that could not be infringed by the other) republic. Something you history-avoiders try to conceal in your attempt to recreate an authoritarian, if not totalitarian dictatorship in some delusion that it will increase your own little power. It won’t, and if you should ever try to get out of your assigned slot, you will be destroyed by it.

Instead of tearing at each other’s throats, why don’t we ALL advocate universal healthcare?

Because “universal healthcare” is just another socialist scheme for stealing money from people who earned it and giving it to people who didn’t.

I’m old-fashioned enough to subscribe to the notion that the only legitimate function of any government is to secure my God-given rights. If I have a God-given right to force others to pay my medical bills, it is not self-evident.

He’ll just wave his magic wand and “poof”, we will all have truly affordable (and the best) health care ever…I’m waiting…

The Electoral College (EC) was created because the framers of the Constitution did not trust the masses to always vote wisely. The EC was a “check” on the majority.

Studies show that the vast majority of Americans are one serious illness away from bankruptcy.

So: don’t get sick, folks! That’s the advice you’ll get from the compassionate conservatives who haven’t had that major illness or accident yet.
