When we went to pick up our monthly meds at the drug store there was a sign up for ALL RETIRED MILITARY ON TRICARE FOR LIFE

New Co-pay increases, the $5 stays at $5, the $12 goes to $17, the $25 goes to $44. This along with the gutting congress is doing to Military health care that has not gone through yet.

Retiree’s have not had a pension or SS raise but once in 4 years. Stinking 1.7& SS half went to Medicare so you got about $40 per month, not even a tank of gas and a gallon of milk.

Yet we are not taxing the middle class.

Krugman: "We won't be able to pay for the kind of society we want without some increases in taxes," he said, "and surely in the end it will require some middle-class taxes as well, maybe a value added tax."

Who's this "we" you're babbling about, Krugman? I do not want the type od society you're trying to create even if it didn't cost any more.

They want to get rid of the last major cohort of Caucasians. And we won’t hear a peep out of Caucasians about this racism, as usual.

> Krugman, after speaking at the Sixth & I Historic Synagogue in Washington, D.C., was asked about the debt crisis. After arguing it’s no big deal in the near term, Krugman admitted that “Eventually we do have a problem. The population is getting older, health care costs are rising ... . Something is going to have to give.”

What’s that something?

It’s alway US never THEM to answer his question

If the Supreme Court does not rule 0bama's Death Panels UNCONSTITUTIONAL then the Country is definitely lost. Are we not guaranteed LIFE, LIBERTY and THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS?

The republic is done, dissolve the union. Do it either peacefully this time or in a bitter desperate Civil War. I am good either way.

If the voters want all the benefits the welfare state has to offer, then they should be willing to pick up the tab. The problem is that most voters believe that they can tax the "rich" to pay for it. The reality is that there is not enough money from the rich even if you were to confiscate all their wealth.

When Willie Sutton was asked why he robbed banks, he responded, "That's where the money is." Well, the middle class is where the real money is and they will have to pay the piper if they want all their entitlement and welfare programs to continue. Reality is a bitch.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Anyone who voted for Obama and didn’t realize that his policies were leading us to death panels and a huge middle class tax hike is a complete idiot. We talk about how the time is coming when “America” will have to pay its obligations. We have to be more precise here. We passed the point where “the rich” were paying a long time ago. Now that is not enough and the time is coming when the middle class is going to have to pay too. And we are too far down the road to stop it.

Krugman admitted that "Eventually we do have a problem. The population is getting older, health care costs are rising ... . Something is going to have to give."

Krugman advocates "Final Solution 2".

[Notary Sojac]

Everybody wants healthcare services they do not pay for. That is not going to work.

Medicare premiums do not come remotely close to covering the healthcare services the elderly believe they have "paid for".

And then they get outraged when the doctors and hospitals say no mas.

FYI I am approaching 60, I know Medicare will be gone by the day I turn 80, and have no illusions about that.
