"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
The more I think about it the more I believe in health savings accounts to pay for private insurance. Government interference would disrupt everything, drive up costs, and force doctors out of medicine.
I thought this was interesting, you may be paying the AMT (tax), and still qualify for the Schip program:
Now, the S-CHIP program was originally designed to help poverty level children, something I think we can all get behind. But who will be the beneficiary of this increased spending under the new plan? A family of 4, including adults, who make up to $81,000 per year or 400% above poverty level could qualify to be covered under this program. It looks to me more like a gradual spread of socialized medicine rather than helping the truly needy in our country. Ironically enough, under the Democrat’s expanded S-CHIP program, 70,000 American families would be “poor enough” to qualify for S-CHIP while at the same time among “the rich” who have to pay the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT).
I predict Bush will sign this bill. He's never seen a spending bill that he didn't like, and being the illegal aliens' best friend, would only be more than happy to do anything to make their stay in the USA more of a pleasant one.
Stealing Health Care From Babies (Ronald Brownstein Blows His Stack Alert)
another socialist advocating the US taxpayers fund and support illegals up to age 25.....
what a true a-hole!!!!
If a scumbag like ronnie was REALLY serious about wanting to cover children and not open America up to more abusive illegal aliens, he would be fighting to keep these burglars out. He would be talking about how we have limited funds that can ONLY be spent on Americans to solve this problem. But a scumbag does as a scumbag is.
The government can “help” the children get health insurance by simply lowering and simplifying the tax code for their parents. But that’s too logical for the gubmint.
Ron, are we talking about good health care, or
King-Drew/King-Harbor/whatever-they-call-the-place-next quality health care? Because if we’re talking about “Killer King” quality health care, trust me, we’re doing babies a favor by stealing it from them.
It`s Ron BrownSTAIN
Children up to age 25, that just kills me.
Under this plan, a 24-year old illegal alien is a “child” who gets free healthcare. No f**king way!
I don’t get it. How can it be “stealing” if the president merely opposes the expansion of the program? Simply opposing the expansion of coverage does nothing to take away what coverage is already in place. Not only that, but the proposed expansion of the health coverage would actually take away private insurance for large numbers of children and replace it with government-run insurance. And the author thinks that the president is “stealing”? It makes no sense.
