Question : “Madam Speaker, Do you feel like it’s fair to send people to jail for not buying health insurance?” Pelosi : “ The point is we want to make sure that everyone has access to health care. For a long time those that haven’t had health care were provided it ( ??? ) have placed the burden on others. Everybody is paying the price for uncompensated care in a hospital. This is to say we all have to do our part (except those getting it for free) and that is the point of the bill.” Question: “But Madam Speaker I am trying to understand. If you don’t buy health insurance you are going to jail?” Pelosi :”I think the legislation is very clear in this respect…”

Kelo needs to be rehashed by the SCOTUS. Kelo homeowners lost their homes/lands after the city seized it to help Pfizer to expand their R&D lab. This was supposd to bring in highter tax revenues and higher income residents. Guess what, with the severe recession, Pfizer decided to opt out of the expansion deal. On top of that Pfizer plans to close their existing R&D Lab and move the personnel to another facility. Now Kelo is left holding empty lots.
Oh heck, I was hoping it read, “Pelosi to receive
jail term.”
An old, old standard of Western law. A maxim of law that has been accepted by all the great legal minds of this and previous centuries:
An act done against my will is not my act.
You can’t be “forced” to do something. That’s what liberty means. Liberty of actions and liberty of conscience.
It doesn't. In Pelosi's case her brain has always been pea sized.
I thought the jails were overcrowded? Now we will be sitting behind bars with killers and rapists because we didn’t have the money to buy the government’s death insurance.
In the proverbial cr@pper
>>It doesn’t. In Pelosi’s case her brain has always been pea sized.<<
That must be why LIBs have to rely on emotions, rather than facts. Look at the great thinkers on the left - 0bambi, Biden, Pelosi, Reid, Schumer, Grayson, the media - I ask you is there a single a coherent thought in the bunch?
No
She is a psychopath.
All leftists are psychopaths.
Pelosi is a leftist.
Therefore, Pelosi is a psychopath.
No argument from me, Sam ;-)
Right! And sending people to jail for not buying insurance is also really a stupid lie—it costs MORE to maintain someone in jail than to give care in an emergency room and while they are in jail, the government has to give the free medical care. What Pelosi is really describing is a concentration camp. !!!
I know. I was just explaining why she was a psychopath. Why they all are psychopaths.
They want to destroy the middle class. It’s the dream of the psychopathic literati going back several centuries.
“They want to destroy the middle class. It’s the dream of the psychopathic literati going back several centuries.”
Yep. I knew when Obama won, he would try to destroy our economy, and hand the wealth over to the useless, and the trade unions. He didn’t waste any time either. America was too busy to spend 2 hours on their PC researching this wretch. No we all have to pay for it.
ping!
And some people might ask “why do they hate us so, why do they hate the middle class with such a passionate and everlasting hatred?”
There are many reasons and I’ve posted my own theories over the years but it now gets down to this:
When two guys are at your front door in the middle of the night and one is smashing the lock with a heavy crowbar and the other is standing nervously next to him with a big-a$$ shotgun you don’t ask yourself “why do they disrespect my home and my property so much?”.
No. You don’t ask that. You don’t try to understand their “reasons”.
You defend yourself.
And same with the psychopaths who now rule us from on high. It’s long past time trying to figure out why they want to destroy us.
It’s now time to play defense. Smart defense.
Smart defense or death. Those are our ACTUAL “public options”.
Amen brother!
B U M P
LOL, you do have a point.
