So the "wars" will save us a hundred billion a year. Yippee.
Tax cuts will save a hundred billion a year. Yippee.
Medicare for all........paid for with what??
Trade agreements renegotiated? Um how does that save billions?
New deal building bridges and roads.........what about the stimulous that was supposed to do that.
Kuccinich needs to just shut up and thank the lord a guy that looks like that has such a good looking wife.
You can pay for Medicare for all with an increased
Medicare Payroll Tax There is no reason to have
the insurance industry involved in the delivery of
health care unless you want a paper cut
Insurance Companies serve no purpose in reduction or in
containment of health care costs, except to increase it.

Perhaps we see why he can't even come close to the nomination in his own party.
Unfortunately, idiots who can't fathom the truth, or who are so blinded by their own self-interests as to not care about the health of the society as a whole, will continue to vote in idiots like Bush/Cheny instead of Paul/Kucinich.

?
Progressive garbage? I heard that these vouchers would have averaged 1500 dollars per person
Even if it was 5k, that's really going to help seniors, where it's not too uncommon for them to rack up 100k in medical bills thanks to things like cancer?
Please, fail.
Here is what we should do to avoid default: increase the debt ceiling with no strings attached.
“Here is how to get out of debt: End the wars -- save one trillion over ten years. Repeal tax cuts to the wealthy: Save another trillion.
“Medicare for All: End the four hundred billion yearly subsidies for health insurance industry.
“Renegotiate trade agreements with workers rights, human rights, and environmental quality principles: save millions of jobs and billions of dollars.
“The Fed creates money out of nothing and gives it to banks.
Why should our country go into debt, borrowing from banks when we have the constitutional power to create money and invest in jobs?
“We can have another New Deal where we put millions to work rebuilding our bridges and transportation system.

Another New Deal would be our undoing. Contrary to popular opinion it made the depression last LONGER. Any government program involves taxpayers having to foot the bill.
Expanding the money supply by printing more money creates more inflation which is a tax on everyone.
you mean the democrats are frothing at the mouth to steal these funds, dont you? the reality is that both parties have been raiding social security and medicare to pay for crap spending programs, the difference here is that the republicans are starting to see the light and want to SAVE medicare and social security, not kill them.
Exactly how can you say that the Repubs want to 'save' Social Security and Medicare, when their designs are to privatize both?
Years ago in the Plain Dealer there was a Sunday feature parody of "Real Men Don't Eat Quiche": Real Clevelanders do this, don't do that, say this, etc.
I will say one thing about crazy Kucinich he stands by what he says and doesn't flop around on issues like most. He is wrong IMO 99% of the time but you know what your getting from that loon.
Yet you drool over Ron Paul even though they share plenty of views.
