complete bullshit and the republicans trying to demonize the poor. However i think we should drug test all legislators especially republicans.

Look, i am very liberal and I am all for single payer. However we are stuck with the ACA. Subsidies should be for the people who are between 20,000 and 75,00 with graduated scale for now. Healthcare should be around $2,000 deductibles $4,000 out of pocket. and a $20 copay.

We then work towards a single payer with a time table of let's say 10 years. this way the economy can figure out how to get there.

It should be for the working family or single person. It should not be for people who have decided on voluntary early retirement. Burnt out is not forced out.

In the earlier original thread someone suggested an emo(discounted local doctors) a reasonable request. his response we want to travel. That is when i had it.

Hey we all want to travel and take it easy. If you voluntary retire then you have an obligation to society on a whole to incur the expenses of retirement and not ask the taxpayer to pay you way.
