The government is already paying reparations. It’s called EBT cards at Walmart.

Free health care is a birthright because my ancestors were discriminated against. A ludicrous argument.

I put nothing past the race merchants these days. I’m ready for the debate she wants. Bring it on!

There were only six attempts to repeal it, as I recall.

I read the book about Henrietta Laks.

Her family really, really wants to be made wealthy by anyone who has ever sold HeLa cells, which have been staples in labs for decades. Henrietta was not harmed by the taking of her cells.

Most people, if told their cells will be taken and cultured and used to perform research to extend and improve lives, would gladly allow such sampling, with no thought of charging for the cells. This family only sees dollar signs.

Most recently, a divided federal appeals judge said it was “an unmitigated disaster.”

What the heck is a divided judge? Do you draw and quarter you now if you say anything bad about Zero-care? Even if they do, I think I would have called him a "soon to be divided judge", since I assume he said that before they divided him.

This author brings up a great point. Do we really want to put the country's healthcare in charge of the organization responsible for the Tuskegee Experiment?

Do we want to have thousands more Tuskegee Experiments?

Obamacare or reparations.

How about "impeachment" and "prison"?

What a pile of nonsensical goofball arguments.

“The health care law, otherwise known as Obamacare, allows uninsured people—mostly poor whites, the elderly and people of color—access to health insurance. The main arguments against it are that universal healthcare—found in other developed countries, is too costly for America—the richest nation on the planet. And Americans will become lazy and work less because they have access to healthcare.”

No, as usual, the author doesn’t have the intellectual depth nor honesty to examine the simple and proven versus the arcane and emphemeral. The arguments against it are that 1: the government screws up everything it touches, 2: ALL government programs are inevitably gamed by insiders. This completely ignores that there is no logical nor even sentential connection between “universal healthcare being too expensive” and “Americans will become lazy”. She forget the part about “turnips will dance the hully-gully in their argyle socks”. She would really have to improve her argument to come up to “stupid”, but I like the racial thing thrown in there, she should have said “shiftless”, that’s the race-trigger word.

So allllllll these people now have access to “healthcare coverage”, but so many doctors and hospitals will not accept the insurance provided by 0bamacare. So you win some and you lose some. It isn’t quite the coverage that was touted, was it? That the president shredded his own credibility lying his ass off over the thing, that’s......just gotta be OK.

“Reparations” is that we made one of the greatest enemies of the US ever the president. And virtually every American is laying for it. He’s the one who gets the
vacays in Martha’s Vineyard. Ask him for your reparations, you little skink.

What a moronic , false dichotomy, illogical stream of nonsense.
The author must have majored in Black Studies , because Logic certainly wasn’t in the curriculum.

How about reparations for the huge amount of violent crimes committed by her people(I mean it like Holder did)? These days, who is lynching who?

I am sorry for what happened to Henrietta Lacks and am sorry for the Tuskeegee program.

However, I am not personally responsible for them, nor have I (to my knowledge) personally benefitted from either of them.

I do not accept the broad brush of collective white guilt.

I will not comply. ‘Pod.

These stories are known because the records exist. And unless we want to have more reasons to dig up America’s past medical atrocities, we should perhaps silence the chatter about repealing Obamacare.

This is stunning. How can this not be read as a threat?

Reparations have already been paid, overpaid in fact. It was known as The Great Society and The War on Poverty.

I refuse to participate in the Communist healthcare program.

As to “reparations”, show me a live slave from the time of The Cvil War, and they, and they alone, not their seed’s grandchildren, should get the money.

Hmmm...did SHE sign up for ‘bro care’? Or does she still enjoy REAL insurance?
