Choices...
Yeah, these deadbeats you speak of are all across the United States, but most of them are concentrated in the red states that consistently vote Republican.

Quote:
Among the states, Texas had the highest percentage of uninsured; at 24.6%. Still, it was an improvement from the 26.1% who were uninsured in 2009. New Mexico had the second highest rate of uninsured people with 21.6%. Nevada was third at 21.3% and Mississippi's rate jumped to 21.1% from 17.3% in 2009.
And guess which state has the LOWEST percentage of those who are uninsured?

Quote:
In Massachusetts, where former governor Mitt Romney instituted his controversial state-wide health insurance plan in 2006, only 5.6% of the population lacks coverage, the lowest rate of uninsured of any state.
Number of people without health insurance in U.S. climbs - Sep. 13, 2011

BTW, I do own health insurance and pay premiums out of my pocket instead of relying on corporate welfare, since I am self employed. My original post was satirical and sarcastic to drive home a point, which pretty much went over your head.

First, ban illegals from Hospitals, especially for births.
That right there saves Billions upon Billions of dollars.

That is only a part of the problem. There are American families who are uninsured because they can't afford health insurance.

You are not funny and that didn't go over anybody's head. I saw that as the typical low brow liberal sarcasm statement that makes them think they are so genius.

The people who ARE insured and are deadbeats are all the Democrats who are on the dole and get free medical that I pay for.
Also, since Obamacare came to be, insurance went up about 40%.

I don't see you saying get rid of all the trial lawyers that cause a doctor $240,000 a year for malpractice insurance which I have to pay as a patient of a doctor. Oh that's right, they give billions to Democrats after increasing our medical insurance payments.

Right, so the thing under Obamacare to do when they can't afford it now is to fine them $5000 for a lack of it. BRILLIANT!

Part of the reason Obamacare will probably get scrubbed by the Supreme Court (if the American people get blessed).

Look, don't get all gloomy that this socialized medicine in America is going away. As soon as Obamacare goes down Obama will get an economic boost because markets will recover faster, the stock market for a while will be better and the turd in the White House will of course make like a dolt and claim credit for it. LOL

How about sticking to the topic by addressing the findings by US Census Bureau on the percentage of "deadbeats" who are uninsured, which are predominately in the red states.

Then explain why Massachusetts have the lowest percentage of families who are uninsured under "Romneycare" which was the framework for Obamacare.

BTW, insurance premiums have consistently gone up every year well before Obamacare went into effect.

The vote came down to 7-2 against Gore and for Bush which did include liberal Justices. Get over it.

So you like to entertain yourself with lies and false propaganda. Free country my friend, especially again after Obamacare goes down.

BUT, fact is Gore was voted against regarding that election by a margin of 7-2 with some liberal Justices in that 7 number. One of the fun facts of life nobody on the left likes to deal with in their memory.
