How frequently do you think of that image of Trump in the robe, laid out, ready for you?

Because he knows dick about health care. That's it...dick. The best part is, he's content to just know dick and pretend to be smart.

Brennan is slime, and always has been. I've told this story before, but i watched a show on showtime i believe it was, called the Directors, and it was interviews with the past CIA directors. Well, they start discussing 911 and the aftermath. And they discuss water-boarding. Every single CIA director said if they were in the same situation as Tenet was, they would probably have done the exact same thing as Tenet and conducted water boarding to get information from terrorist combatants...EXCEPT 1, John Brennan. Even Obama's past directors were in agreement with Tenet, except for Brennan.
Your telling a story about how you saw a TV show. You sound like my preteen daughter.

It's amazing that Trump and his supporters don't see this. Shady mofos.
And for the record, screw Sessions. Good riddance. Hopefully I can say that later part of Trump in 2020.

My very conservative mother and step-father hate the idea of single payer, yet they are very satisfied with their health care now. It's Tricare, which is essentially the military version of single payer.
Now, I'm sure there are plenty of people that despise Tricare, but there are plenty of people that desire BC/BS, Aetna, Kaiser Permanente, etc. There's also multitude than can afford none of them.
I don't care for government bureaucracy so much, but I'm also not so keen on the plans by the GOP. I see no less potential for bureacracy in those plans.
You can argue the States rights platforms, but when you live in a state like Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, etc., you're arguing for your system to be arbitrated not by sly foxes, but by the most corruptible wolves this side of the Fort Lee bridge.
Their plans so far also don't add to the promises of the guy that many of you voted for as president.

I don't know that it would be successful here, but to assume that it would be either a success or a failure without a fair and honest survey of countries that do have single payer systems is a waste of thought.
A friend of mine that, due to his line of work, has many European colleagues recently hosted a discussion about the opinions of those colleagues related to health care. Those in single payer systems were almost unanimously satisfied with the level of care compared to their experiences with other systems.
Of course, we could easily find a way to screw up any health care system, so I don't base my curiosity about single payer solely on those sort of informal discussions. I do consider it as valuable input though.

Look, I know you want to let this go...but was that Chipotle in Prattville, AL? Was there a family there that you had seen earlier in the day at a gas station near Florala with a toddler kid yelling "I need candy" over and over while crying?
Are you me and I don't know it?

Honestly, even as liberal as I am, it's easier to play long games based on charity or giving things to people than it is to work in the opposite direction. My own leaning is to err on the side of compassion and giving. That's why I line up the way I do, even though I can see some cases of people gaming the system.

Well you better hope someone figures it out. The Dems are determined to ride Obamacare straight into the ground to protect Obama's legacy and the republicans are too afraid to touch it despite all their talk.
Edit: now that I think about it, that's all this is about. Dems want to protect the Obama legacy at all costs, and the republicans are sitting on the sidelines because they don't want to get the blame for destroying/ dismantling the legacy of the first black president.
This is what really bothers me. Blame the tea party obstructionists or us anti-Trump obstructionists, it doesn't really matter. The problem comes down to party over country, and ideology over pragmatism.
I doubt any one politician has the answer to this issue. People are going to have to suck it up and work with the other side. Unfortunately, they've (both sides) spent the past 20 years portraying that other side as evil, unpatriotic and stupid. They've won elections that way and they're scared to do what's right due to optics, i.e. election consequences.

You're just kind of douchey in every thread. That's all. I think most people got the point I was making about Rand's libertarian skew, his trend towards the whole "Who is John Galt" style, being the freedom caucus, pseudo-libertarian, etc.
You do this in every thread I've seen you on. Sometimes the connotations in a post are more important that the denotations. Are you that old poster Wiki, I've heard about?
By the way, it's ok. Be a douche with a bent toward correcting every statement you read if that's you. Just accept that douche is how most people will consider you.
You free to consider me as uniformed, bullshite artist from here on out.

1. I think he and his supporters consider him more libertarian than most of the other Republicans.
2. Much of the modern libertarian rhetoric is rooted in Ayn Rand's philosophy or philosophies from which hers developed.
3. Ok. His wife likes Rand better.
100% douche in every thread I've seen you post in. Also impressive.
