Add up all the outstanding mortgages that won't ever get paid due to statute of limitation violations.

Seems to be about $2 Trillion. Check the Federal Reserve's H.4.1s from 2008 to now.

Rambling? That's because you fail to understand the consequences...

Mortgage debt negated due to statute of limitations. How are investors (MBS buyers) made whole on that? Enter the Federal Reserve to create $2 Trillion out of thin air to buy GSE-issued MBS. Enter the taxpayers who now have to pay interest on that created $2 Trillion. Furthermore, enter every American who now has to deal with a devalued dollar due to having another $2 Trillion artificially injected into the economy.

How is any of that hard to understand?

So... how has that universal access NOT prevented the following:

Medicaid Pays For Nearly Half of All Births in the United States
http://publichealth.gwu.edu/content/...-united-states
Because Medicaid wasn't expanded every state. For example in the 2nd most populous state, Texas, medicaid wasn't expanded and the funding for reproductive services was cut and the program was replaced with a less successful one. Texas had the most uninsured before ACA and still have the most uninsured and there is no healthcare plan in place to solve that. Turns out planned parenthood was actually effective in helping low income women in Texas.

Furthermore, Medicaid births are more in he Bible Belt because of religious pressure to not adequately fund reproductive health.

So when you say widely available.... You don't mean the south and southwest where republicans control state legislatures.

Republicans and their supporters proving again that any idiot can tell you what is wrong but offer no viable solutions.

Does Texas not have public health clinics that provide family planning services?
Quote:
Provision of Services

Public funding for family planning comes from a variety of sources. In Texas, 63% of funding is from Medicaid and 9% is from Title X (see chart).

State-only sources: 13%
Other federal sources: 15%
Title X: 9%
Medicaid: 63%

Most women who obtain publicly funded family planning services do so at safety-net health centers. These family planning providers are particularly critical for those most likely to fall through the cracks of the U.S. health care system. For example, centers are trusted, accessible sources of contraceptive counseling and care for teens, who often lack financial resources and have confidentiality concerns that may bar them from seeking resources from their families or even from using their insurance coverage.

Publicly supported health centers provided contraceptive care to 281,170 women in Texas in 2013, including 163,850 women served by Title X-supported centers.

Did I ever say they don't have them?

Take the time and read....

Can only respond to that snippet? Dont be scared. FYI, Texas has changed its services since 2013, the year of your link.

It isn't but it NEVER happened. It NEVER happened. No one got their debt forgiven other than the banks.

It was said when all that happened that it might happen BUT it didnt. It was just another bank welfare program.

Actually where I grew up it was obvious that the changes were coming. There were 2 types of people, the whiners who sat around b*tching, and the people who understood they must change with the times and got educated in a different type of business.

The whiners are still whining and struggling. The people who understood that change is inevitable are doing better than the whiners.

Change is inevitable. If it weren't we'd still be hunting with spears, we'd still be riding hoarse back, we'd still be lighting lanterns, we'd still be chopping wood for heat and on and on.
