Welcome to Thunder Dome Holmes! (none / 0)

Way to unsheathe the dark sword on that Republican hack!

I might be crazy but to quote Amy verbatim there’s “not enough tax breaks for individuals like me to write this off on my income tax," followed up by her response that she was referring to tax credits.  What about Bush’s save the world H.S.A. solution to our healthcare crisis…..  How do these people sleep at night?????????

Good job Cenk, CNN's final point rebuttle (none / 0)
I have a conservative friend who brings up the waiting lists and all when it comes to foreign U.H.C. programs and all I have to say is "Ah, so people only the wealthy being able to zip in line for a surgery while I have to wait until it's bad enough for the emergency room is somehow better than people dying on the waiting list?"  &nbs p; We're the richest, and supposedly the smartest country in the world.   You're saying we can't analyze the UHC systems around the world, take the goods, leave the bads, and come up with something that works?   Give me a break.  It's all about money.

Great Job Cenk! (none / 0)
Those Republicans just crack me up. God forbid miss Amy gets hit by a bus running across the road - she's screwed, unless the RNC is going to pay her hospital bill. You were right on with the poor people not paying taxes so what good is the tax credit. Not to mention her argument, which paints a bleak picture of waiting for healthcare in other countries, supposes that we don't have lines for healthcare and cancelled surgeries in the U.S. and the costs are astronomical. In addition, how many people have to work multiple jobs just to get health insurance. My parents owned their own ice cream franchise and could not afford to get health insurance for their employees and family. In order to make the family was covered, he worked a second job at night as a school custodian. It is outragous that anyone needs to do that in this country. Finally at age 69 they sold the store because he couldn't do both anymore. He is still a custodian.

damn socialists.....what? (none / 1)

i'm up in canada, and my girlfriend just had treatment for leukemia this past year.  were it not for the "socialist" system up here, we would not have been able to afford to save her life.

amy had mention that she was uninsured because she only sees the doctor once a year, yadda yadda...if she were to get, say, cancer, wouldn't the insurance companies basically pat her on the back and say "good luck with that"?
