What a prince, he’s going to raise taxes on himself to pay for it.

GASP he just repeated the AARP supports it lie!

That reminds me...

I cancelled membership in AARP three days ago, and they were supposed to get back to me within "two days..."

Haven't heard a word yet. But when I do, I will be sure to post their response, whatever it is.

I am curious to see their response to my parting statement, "I don't want a discussion or debate on this; I just want my refund."

Questioner confronts: How are you actually gonna pay for all this?

Now, Bam is explaining..... sort of.

still rambling

2/3 can be obtained by eliminating payments to insurance companies

[damn them and their profits!]

and waste is part of that 2/3.

$30 million remaining [he can’t subtract. $800 billion less 2/3 is NOT $30 million, it is nearly $300 billion]

still rambling

rambling

‘what I said is...’

lower deductions on income tax from 30% to 28%

writing a donation to his local church [huh?]

That alone would pay for the amount we’re talking about.

“I’m not just making this up...”

rambling

I note that they started this one after Rush was off the air.

I did some work up near Bozeman many years ago. We worked near an area in Gallatin County near the Gallitan River (world class trot for the well to do). There was an area of 40+ acre “home” sites with multi-million dollar cabins on it populated by the biggest bunch of wild eyed liberal fruits and nuts you could ever imagine ...most likely the people lining up since they limited it to locals.

Rigged and plants without planting. Look at how Gallatin County voted.

What he's really saying is that we have ONE shot at getting our surgery right. After that, well, there will be a waiting period till the hospital can admit us again, or they will be fined.

so lowering itemized deductions does not equal a tax hike in the mind of chairman zero...
