Republicans care more about money than human life

I think Glen Beck sums it up nicely

Link

Healthcare is just for the rich and powerful, and screw anyone else who can't afford it.

I hope his show becomes so unpopular that he loses his job, loses his health coverage, and dies in the street because he can't afford to go to the hospital. Seems like it would be poetic justice.

That guy is pretty damn crazy.

Edit: No seriously, he sounds evil, like Satan.

Edit2: He actually scared me at some point :(.

Just out of curiousity why do you think other people are responsible for the benefits of others? And no...I'm not a Republican.LJS9502_basic

Healthcare is a basic human right. To deny someone quality healtcare because of their socioeconomic status is despicable and inhumane.

The Republicans really love meritocracy and social darwinism, even when it means letting people die.

Every other western, industrialized nation recognizes it as a basic human right. The US is flat out wrong on this issue.

The worst part is that the poor and chronically ill (who can't work), in other words the people who need it the most, are often denied access to healthcare.

Who lives or dies should not be decided by the same kinds of sleazebags who sell you your car insurance. But that's basically the system we have now. It's so horribly corrupt and inhumane I don't even know where to begin.

Republicans need to get less nut jobs openly representing or being biased for them. Fox news, Glen beck ... geeze get some more sensible supporters to be in the spotlight.

Glen beck is mentally unstable. I mean I honest to God think he has severe anger issues. The guy gets insanely angry way too easy. If I hear "Glen Beck kills man in a fit of rage" I will not be surprised.

And Walmart who's the biggest employer intentionally keeps most of its employees part time so they don't qualify.

What's really a human rights issue has been turned into a political issue.

I hope you like living without military or police protection then. Do you like getting your mail? Maybe your children shouldn't be able to go to school unless you can afford a private school. Screw maintaining the roads. Lets just drive on them until they fall apart.

Somone's broken into your house and is raping your wife, but oops, you don't have enough money to pay the police to come out. Pay day's not until next friday. Looks like you'll just have to get murdered.

That's what you're advocating.

In the US, you're entitled to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Healthcare falls under the category of life.

Fox is a horrible representation of Republicans.

I am a Republican and I want health care to be as strong as possible, but the way our government is handling it and has handled it in the past has been wrong.

This new health care bill is nothing more than a short term, temporary solution that will end up costing the country trillions. It is one of those "solutions" that politicans put forth to make everybody feel better. In truth there are no such things as "solutions", there are only trade-offs. America does not want to admit that one.

How is police protection not an individual benefit? They come out to your house when there's a break-in or you're being attacked. Every time I've been robbed I've gotten individual service from an officer who took a report.

Mail and education are individual benefits.

Also healthcare isn't entirely an individual benefit in the broad sense. It's in the best interests of society for everyone to be as healthy as possible. Society is more productive that way.

It also benefits society for everyone to be as healthy as possible. Fewer sick days means greater productivity.

I actually don't even feel like the military serves much of a function in modern society since no major powers will likely ever go to war again since they're so economically dependent on each other.

I'd take in a drastically reduced military in exchange for universal healthcare.

It's to the benefit of society to not allow criminals free reign....LJS9502_basic

Billions upon billions of dollars are lost on sick time. Don't be ignorant. A healthy society is a productive society.

And the people who abuse sick leave often have mental health issues or are overworked.

The GOVERNMENT should be regulating HIGHWAYS, and PRISONS, and POLICE, not WHAT I EAT, MY HEALTHCARE, and WHAT UNHEALTHY THING TO BAN THATS BASED ENTIRELY ON CHOICE IF I USE IT OR NOT.

Then again, I say that you're advocating anarchy. Might as well stop paying taxes.

Also, why are Republicans always so worried about a few people who might abuse the system rather than the greater good? So annoying.

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"] And not everyone on sick leave is sick dude. How are you going to solve that problem. Bet it cuts that money down considerably. But for the record...there WILL always be illness. But there is nothing wrong with individual responsibility. Why should I work to provide for you? Note...general you...not specific.LJS9502_basic

Not really. Lots of sick people, like in a pandemic, means society grinds to a halt.

Also, like I said before the military is rather useless in modern society. Conventional militaries don't mean much. Look at Iraq and Afghanistan. We have these great conventional military forces that are getting their butts handed to them by a bunch of guys in turbans with AKs. The military could stand to be cut down to a small, elite commando force. The one we have now is a huge waste of tax payer money.

On your military comment, I just want you to know how incredibley lucky you are to have worlds greatest military. You might just not understand the military the same way I have, because I've served. It's probably just a perception barrier.
