And, per what I have said before.
Largely supported by Christian Conservatives.
So we can make it harder for everyone else. Loving our brothers and sisters we are haha. Not funny of course, but it is contrary to teachings.
If I'm guilty of lying, let me know because I am not. And we can say "not with my taxes" or "those bums my tax dollars support". But the truth of the matter is, income disparity has caused a huge mess and most Americans have no savings. This of course ignores the poor while helping the rich (greed).
What a nation of love we are not!

If that was the case then Trump team would not be giving out tax breaks to the greedy and increasing military spending. They would simply cut and apply that surplus to the debt.

While I'm an advocate of tax cuts, I believe that the structure should be in place to let individuals take responsibility for their own retirement and health care before such draconian cuts are made. Give us things like pre tax health savings accounts that we would use for minor medical needs, with catastrophic care insurance for the big health issues . Eliminate taxes on 401 (k) accounts for those who would opt out of Social Security.
That January story doesn't seem to match the administration's April proposal; might it have been a negotiating tactic rather than a serious proposal?

The only problem with your proposal is this: money.cnn.com/2017/01/12/pf/americans-lack-of-savings/That would make it impossible to cover a health emergency. I am an advocate for universal health care and many Americans feel that same way. The reason is, medications and treatments for things are outrageous. If we gave the people now who pay a ton for insurance all that money back into their pocket that money instead would be pumped back into the economy. Not to even mention, all the major countries on earth offer the same thing I advocate for. Our health care system is inefficient and way to expensive. We pay more then any nation on earth and yet rank 37th for it: thepatientfactor.com/canadian-health-care-information/world-health-organizations-ranking-of-the-worlds-health-systems/If we are going to spend so much and put lives on the line with our care, the system is failing.

This guy could not say it any better. I agree with him 100 percent. And we want to talk about morals? Health care should be a right!

here is one word as to why we can't privatize Social Security and should not privatize healthcare!!!
Maddoff!!!!

nothing as important as healthcare or pensions should be put in the hands of the private sector.
