Russian hacking...pubs say lies.

Wiretapping dems say, pub distractions.

Unless we have billionaires on this board, these politicians are not out to help you folks

I don't know about that nappy, Obama took care of Iran.  I expect Trump to load a pallet full of $100 bills and bring it to Evadale any day now.  I promised him we wouldn't build a nuclear weapon at the paper mill :)

I would like to not have to pay almost $30k a year for insurance.  That would be nice.  

I would like to not pay 10k for a 5 day hospital visit or 300 for 30 pills at the pharmacy. But the health care industry is donating far more to politicians than myself.

Let's say you spend 5 days in the hospital, and another guy spends 5 days in the hospital. The hospital needs to charge $5000/person to cover their costs and make a profit. The other guy is illegal and skips out on the bill, so the hospital charges you $10,000 to cover their costs. What is wrong with that? Why do you hate illegals? Why do you not want to pay your fair share?

Now you go to the pharmacy and pay $300 for your 30 pill supply. What research went into making that medicine? How much money did the pharmaceutical company spend on R&D to extend your snowflake lifestyle? Why do you think the pharmaceutical company owes you? And if the pharmaceutical companies are not allowed to make a profit because you don't want to pay your fair share, do you think they will invest more money on new research?

And if we don't have R&D, how are we going to find the next generation medicine to replace antibiotics, which some bugs have already whipped?

And in all honesty, I hope we find something soon.

If I were a hospital, I wouldn't pay politicians to create healthcare. It will go belly up and I would be stuck with the bill. I make lots more money from real insurance.
