I’m still shocked that 58% approve of his handling of the economy.

Yeah, he’s absolutely correct—but it’s the disconnect between his populism and the statement that made the whole thing sound really off-key coming out of his mouth.

his “I wrote a best-selling book. If you write a best-selling book, you can be a millionaire, too,” response to questions about his recent accumulation of wealth was pretty fucking tone-deaf. Had it come out of any other politician (can you imagine Hillary having said such a thing?), they’d be pilloried. It’s his…

I wonder who would be the first to knock the dust off Bernies dick, HamNo or Libby? Or would they fight it out for the honor?

But with M4A you wouldnt have to worry about switching jobs and losing your coverage

For a household earning $75,000 annually a 4% premium would amount to $3,000 or $250 per month. That might be more than you are paying now but you need to consider some selfish things first

My premiums will also increase. But, if you factor in the deductibles and co-pays that would go away, this is far cheaper.

Still too dumb to take any steps to counteract your diagnosis, I see.

are you suggesting we should do an armed revolution to get free healthcare?

shouldn’t you be in bed mr. bateman?

1. you wont pay co-pays and deductibles

You pay less than 4%? Either you’re not taking into account your employer’s contribution, or your annual income is greater than ~$180,000.

I make a heap and I pay more than 4% now so...you’re unemployed.

If nothing else, M4A includes longterm care. Under current law, that’s only provided under Medicaid which means people have to blow all of their savings (assuming they have any) before Medicaid contributes.

4 percent may be more than your premiums, but M4A also gets you a lot more than your premiums and doesn’t require co-pays or deductibles.

No, no, no. The guillotine is for what we do with them after the war. Or, alternately, we just go ahead and guillotine them asap, as the ultra-wealthy have no idea how to operate m4 rifles or grenade launchers, so the ability to afford them means very little.

Randian hero over here. I sure hope you never disappear and leave all us moochers in the dust!

Of course it matters, your health care premiums aren’t only what you pay.

Yes, very much so. Guillotine/The Wall 2020!

I have great health care.
