The CEO of United health Care's salary accounts for every eigth dollar they take in. So each of these low wage employees would be contributing about $100 to his salary
Oh but thats ok...its the 'free-market'. Ask any Republican, according to Reagen and the 'trickle-on' crowd, if he wasn't worth 500 million dollars a year he wouldn't make that much, that's how the glorious free-market works (free for the rich and mega-corporations, very costly for the rest of us).
And again according to the free-market/Reagen/neo-con/talk-radiot/tea-tard crowd, that has nothing to do with why health care costs are out of control, they are out of control because of gov't regulations.
Only if the gov't was involved in any way whatsoever would the CEO earn too much or too little...
People who do not insure themselves and their family are playing with fire.
Personal responsibility is part of living in a free society.
I pray that they don't get sick, but why should we responsible people take on their bills?
If you feel that that is mean, so be it. You pay for them.
Still waiting to see how people, especially those making minimum wage or paltry salaries in general, are supposed to be able to afford to insure themselves and their families.
I used to work in corporate for a company that provided benefits for all of its employees. The majority of the employees were paid bottom of the barrel wages. For some reason because they offered benefits to so many low-wage employees the cost was much higher? Anyway, insurance for a family was like 600-700/month. Most of those people were barely making 1600/month.
So according to the tea-tards these bottom feeding scum should die if they get sick because they were the irresponsible ones who didn't have insurance. That sounds great to a chrsitian warrior Republican, but realistically...I can't imagine somebody with a family is really going to be able to spend 50% of their income on health insurance...???
Oh wait...the church will make up the difference!
You are a doll, GAisGreat!! And just think, 50% of their income on health insurance then 40% on rent or mortgage. That leaves $160 bucks for food and transportation to work! Yee-haw.
'bottom feeding scum tea-tards' I will be using that one! It's appropriate.

This whole matter wouldn't be so horrific if most of the Tea Partyers didn't pretend to follow Jesus. As the recent joke goes, "Obama is not a brown-skinned, anti-war socialist who gives away free health care. You're thinking of Jesus."
The hypocrisy is stunning, the way they accept any and all government health care, Medicare scooters, etc. Even if they're rich and reject those things, one has to wonder at the cruelty and the morals of people who wholeheartedly support expensive high-tech wars overseas to blow up a few camel herders at their wedding receptions, and want the taxpayers to support their bloodlust by taking away public health options for the poor, making sick people suffer terribly for the remainder of their lives, or die in the streets.
I wish my church had that kind of money. I love the way you make all kinds of assumptions about me just because I disagree with your interpretation of the events at the debate. You just reinforce everything that I find wrong with the Tea Party.
I couldn't care less about how you or anyone else feel about the Tea Party.
Just keep it straight.
Hate for the right reason.
As far as your interpretation of the event, you are looking at it through the eyes of a leftie.

I get it.
In your world looking at it 'through the eyes of a leftie'...really means looking at it through the eyes of someone who is not a brainwashed/dead right-wing nut...So I'll keep it straight for you 'alphamale'....ROFL. I am curious, how did you become 'alphamale', are you the leader of a boy scout troop or something? Were you top dog at band camp?
Actually, I spent today helping out a friend with brain cancer who has no insurance, because his employer did not offer it. He had lost a previous job that did provide insurance due to the economic down turn, and was working this job while looking for a better one, but bad luck and cancer caught him at a bad time. I've got my own problems due to the economy, so money is tight. My friend no longer has cable because he can't afford it, his computer and books were his only source of entertainment. And his computer was 10 years old and in bad shape. I pulled together some donations from mutual friends to help offset some of my costs, and bought him a new computer.
I suppose you think that was stupid of me, but I can live with that. I live what I preach, I don't b**** about the government and entitlements for people who dont deserve them, then come running to it for a handout whenever I get in trouble myself.
What I find hard to live with is the reprehensible hate and behavior of a large percentage of the Tea Party and the idiots who deny that such behavior exists.
How mighty generous of you.
It's amazing how people think that you're a bad person because you feel that people should be responsible for themselves.
I have different charities and causes to which I donate.
As for you lefties, you depend too much on the government, which, as things turn out, the largest denier of claims in America.
