Are you willing to burn your Medicare Card? The Tea Party outfit FreedomWorks wants the uninsured to burn a non-existent Obamacare card. But as a loyal Tea Partier are you willing to burn your Medicare Card to support Freedomworks and the Koch brothers and their fight against socialism? Didn't real patriots in 1776 do more than burn Medicare cards?? Isnt it time for the real Tea Party to step up?

Like that's going to fix any of the problems associated with America...

I'd rather see Washington DC burned, maybe then we can start America all over again...

Burning Medicare cards what a joke....

How about people give up their:

~ welfare
~ food stamps
~ EBT cards
~ government cell phones

After that occurs lets talk about burning Medicare cards....

Why would poor people willingly give up the handouts they voted for? This is why democracies have a short lifespan. The people just keep voting more freebies for themselves, or the candidates that promise the most with the least effort. Expect more Obama clones to exact a death grip upon this nation, no matter how many teabags the teabaggers staple to their baseball caps. Expect poor people to continue to play the victim card, regardless of how inadequate an effort they actually put in.

I do not have, nor will I ever accept, MediCare/MedicAid. Just as I will never accept, or participant in, the Affordable Health Care Act. I do not require fascist liberal freaks in the federal government dictating the kind of medical care I can or cannot have.

I feel your pain but ..You wanna bet?

You may never use it (BozoCare) but one way or another .. You are going to help pay for it.
(I'm guessing that you aren't homeless, sitting in a cardboard box, posting from your found laptop, using free wifi outside of a StarBucks?)

Taxes my friend, Taxes!

(FICA ring a bell?)

You say you're wealthy (And not sitting outside that StarBucks)?
That is why the IRS is involved.
(They have 'creative' ways to look for and 'find'.. more money than they "think" you need and tax it).

Buy food?
Purchase fuel?
Use cable?
(Taxes)

Of course ...you could give all of your wealth away, live like a hermit.

Dumpster dive for food.
Never watch tv.
Walk everywhere you go and then, one day ...
They find your body .. sell the clothes off of your back on ebay and your body to science!

(Death Taxes!)
(Which of course ... will help pay for the BozoCare that you never voluntarily participated in!

(OR paid for)

Excellent post!

I can see why you're a $500 winner. Facts are facts.

Really?
The poster is a $500.00 winner?
Why?
If all of his (or her) posts are as 'confusing as the one you call Excellent .. I'd give it back!
(The money)

Uses the talking points of most conservatives 'until' he/she throws out the insults .. typical of a Lib!
("... no matter how many teabags the teabaggers staple to their baseball caps.")

If I didn't 'know' the political bent of this forum I'd say .. "Give it back"!
(The money)

You don't think you'll need Medicare, which, if you are working, you are already paying into? You won't take it when you turn 65? You'd better be very rich if you are going to pay up front for all of your own medical care after you are retired. And, even once you are eligible for Medicare you will pay premiums and co-payments. Oh, but not you. You think you will never need a knee replacement or cataract surgery or maybe something for your heart. The rest of us are grateful to have some insurance for our old age. I guess you don't have car insurance either?
