I’m with you on that. I have no problem with them turning over data if properly done. Not how to get the data.

My former neighbor was English.

Her 92-year old mum has always been taken good care of by the NHS.

Even Cameron the Conservative Prime Minister praised the NHS.

It's poo stirirng made up controversy by Team Cruz.

If Trump didn't manufacture poo by the trainload there would be nothing for Cruz supporters to stir.

Going to stop lying about it now?

Nope, wasn't lying, and I won't stop posting articles that show the duplicity of Donald Trump until he quits speaking out of both sides of his mouth.

He brought this upon himself by his own words, not my understanding of his words, but his penchant of speaking out of both sides of his mouth on just about every issue.

I’ll go with the SC House poll that had 5800 respondents, not the others that are heavily weighted and use a few hundred respondents. But go ahead and have fun. Tomorrow will out.

It should be obvious what Trump is doing, he’s using the MO the liberals and NOW, it seems, the GOPe uses.

Say anything to get the opposition to swing to your side THEN restate your real policies after they vote.

(example) He has already revealed the strategy he will be using when talking about the Iran deal, after he has finished negotiating with the Persians, he tells them...”Oh sorry, we can’t give you the money, we are broke”

Trump clarifies Anderson Cooper remarks on Obamacare mandate
Twitter ^
Posted on 2/19/2016, 3:54:46 PM by springwater13

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 26m26 minutes ago

I was asked about healthcare by Anderson Cooper & have been consistent- I will repeal all of #ObamaCare, including the mandate, period.

I was referring to a backstop for pre-existing conditions. I will eliminate the law, in its entirety, & replace it w/ something much better.

I will replace it with private plans, health savings accounts, & allow purchasing across state lines. Maximum choice & freedom for consumer.

I’m self-funding and I am going to take care of the people – not the special interests and insurance companies like the other candidates.

Remember, Cruz and Bush gave us Roberts who upheld #ObamaCare twice! I am the only one who will #MAKEAMERICAGREATAGAIN!

LOL. I have made a reasoned logical choice. My criteria are different from yours. I am not going to waste my time trying to convince you to do otherwise. If Cruz gets the nomination, I will support him, the only candidate other than Trump I will vote for. Will you support Trump if he gets the nomination?

“Of course, that doesn’t tell us how his “backstop for pre-existing conditions” would work (much less fit in to his “much better” overall plan), or how he would structure the “backstop” to prevent the free rider problem.”

That’s actually a very easy problem to solve. For someone with a preexisting condition, the insurance for that condition is taken care of my medicare and/or medicaid. The person with that condition uses private insurance for everything else.

Hense, no free rider problem...

The only one lying is Trump when he says he has a plan that will be much better than Obamacare. He hasn't a clue.

Got it, due to a mindless feverish worship of a certain candidate you will cling to the lie spun out by bloggers and ignore all facts that show it to be a lie.

Truly sad that this sort of mindless bot behavior is now marketed as “Principled Conservatism”

You know, you give several rallies in a day and then a town hall and then are expected to articulate in a perfect manner. Especially when you are not a politician. One would hope the ‘spirit filled’ folks in this forum would understand that. Nope, they are just as weaselly and Cruz.

I respect your position and I thank you for your reasoned answer. But my reply is no, I will not vote for Trump. I entered into this election season determined to vote for a conservative candidate for president or I wasn't going to vote for president at all. I plan on sticking with that.

Bloomberg is a politician. In case you missed it, he was mayor of NYC for 12 years 2001-2013. He had the law changed to run for a third term. He is not someone I could support given his performance in NYC.

There you go. “Principled Conservatism” Cruzies voting for more invasion. How patriotic. And Trump supporters are the cult? LOL!

That wouldn't fix the free rider problem, it would just put the taxpayers on the hook for the pre-existing condition. Those pre-existing conditions would be extremely costly (think cancer).

Fine. You favor a member of the political class, someone who has spent most of his working life feeding at the government trough. If you typify the average Cruz supporter, then it shows how difficult it will be for Cruz to govern. Ideologues don’t do well in executive positions unless they govern using executive orders.

Nope. It’s Cruz and his sleaze ball campaign staffs specialty. Both his campaign manager and chairman are very shady characters. If you don’t believe me just ask Ben Carson. LOL.

Better you ask what part of their income is taxed to provide the cradle to grave health care and what are the wait times for treatment of serious diseases?

We had a aunt who lived under that crap, couldn’t change doctors, and when she fell and broke her back, the doctor told her she was TO OLD to treat, go home and DIE. Her heart doctor treated her broken back.
