If we wake up and the bill only gives insurance to those that got kicked off the wagon of the health insurance companies then we have completly got shamed
I don’t watch corp TV. Way to jump to wrong conclusions.
Turn on Fox Moos and go back to sleep, genius.
This is the worst report I’ve ever viewed from realnews. This was the kind of “reporting” that one gets from the likes of fox snooze. Realnews is hypocritical in not having a single payer supporter in this report. Instead we got that cheap obamapologist roger “the dodger” hickey. He is not a progressive and neither are the phony organizations in which he’s involved! Hey, hickey! NO ONE TAKES YOU SERIOUSLY!
SHAME on realnews for producing this piece of tripe!
Starting from Scratch is gobbledygook and babble.
Hokes Pokes mumbo jumbo.
The USA already has a single payer system, It’s called Medicare so, WE ARE NOT STARTING FROM SCRATCH, PERIOD.
WAKE THE HELL-UP, start thinking for your self’s, and quit letting politicians and the Health Care Industry do your thinking for you !
Puppet politicians act as prostitutes to the Health Insurance Corporate Elite. Baucus sold seats at the table(he took $400,00) from health insurance comp. and pharma.) They get their money by denying claims & causing bankruptcy & death.
Take away elected officials tax payer paid health care. Let them buy it on the Free Market.
When corporations controll the government& their concerns trump that of the average person’s you have fascism. Not a democracy,not a republic.FASCISM
Well, it depends what they’re watching on HGTV
As for where to start, I recommend searching for “The courtroom testimony of James P. Cannon” on Google (with or without quotes) and clicking on the first link. Also at the James P. Cannon library/Internet Archive, see “America Under the Workers Rule” by James P. Cannon, which will be under the “1953″ heading. Rising unemployment will provide the incentive, and the time. Hopefully people use the internet wisely while they can still afford it.
I think it is fair to say this, though I think some democrats should go ahead and join the republicans or start adopting more progressive ideals, But I think people like Obama and others really are a force that is tugging Left (as confusing a term that can be) and I don’t think it is good to assume that Obama is the same as Bush, Look at how difficult it is for him to get Guantanamo closed, Not just the politicians but the people in this country are very capitalist minded and afraid of change.
There is so much information out there though…Where to start? I barely understand your other comment…I looked at your youtube profile and I see the books you have read, whoa when are people going to read “Materialism vs, Creationism from antiquity to present” during commercial breaks while watching HGTV? I think more knowledge needs to flow and be shared, the internet is a start, but then people need incentive to learn, and time to learn..
how can the lower economic brackets reduce or equalize or surpass the amount of power that the rich corporate entities and upper 10 percent or upper one percent have? Boycott? class itself is a tricky ambiguous thing…The snake seems to eat it’s tale everyone i part of the circle to a greater or lesser degree..at the same time we criticize others we somehow play a part in how things are at some level…me too…
Oooh you’re so clever. I bet it took you some time to come up with that one. Was that before or after you removed the penis from your mouth, or was it after you father extracted his from your butt?
I’m sorry, but I’m pretty cynical about these things. The two wings beat pots and pans but ultimately serve the same masters, and I’m not talking about the electorate. Single payer isn’t even up for debate, it’s simply the model of privately owned insurance (in quote marks) that’s being discussed. Everything else is simply circus and distraction.
Good arguement.
If you look at the Congressional voting records since the late 1970’s you see increasingly significant differences between the parties, culminating in the extreme polarization we see now.
Totally agreed.
the fact is the “Ship” is located or positioned in these waters, no matter who is admiral they are going to be faced with a narrow set of options, I think if Ralph Nader (who I admire) were president,he would see that he would have to sway republicans, and democrats and voters etc..The President is not a dictator who has everyone at his command, he himself has to confront other powerful entities and just make due with what is available, I think saying Obama is just Bush is false.
Indeed, and Bush’s mob weren’t conservatives either. It’s like the illusion of two boxers being separate entities, when in truth they are one, serving the bag men.
what’s with the obama backdrop? necessary?
“Hi, I’m part of the messiah’s admin.!” what a tool.
Agreed bryan, I think Metallica wrote a song about it. Sad But True.
Two parties huh, like a flaming unicorn fighting a leprechaun, absolute fantasy.
The people that voted for Obama seem to be just as blind to what Obama is doing as the Repubs that voted for Bush were incapable of seeing what Bush was really doing.
I know the bailout began under Bush but Obama is continuing it and has already spent triple what Bush has.
No, but apparently you came down from one.
ITS OFFICIAL!!!I now despise Barack Obama as much as George W. Bush1He refuses to appoint a special prosecutor to punish Bush for his illegal WIRE TAPPING and TORTURING ways.Its becoming real clear that our government tortured detainees not for information but for forced confessions2He’s NOT pushing for Single Payer Health Care3He’s killing innocent civilians in Afghanistan and is killing Americans troops in these failed 2 wars he refuses to end. Even the NY Times says he’s Dick Cheneys BITCH
The bailout began under President Bush.
I think the days of the two party system are comnig to an end. Obama is not really to the left, stop listening to your television set man. What has Obama done to expand civil liberties? nothing what has he done to end the war in Iraq? he started another war. He has expanded Bush’s spy program, expanded his war in the east and expanded our countries debt x3 in the short time he’s been in office. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
