“totally fanned and faved and not just for the Sanders endorsement :)”

“I'll second that. I wish i could believe for a minute that he would have a chance at winning.”

“Jerry Brown rocks! He is a very, very smart man and he knows California, and after Arnie we need his experience here badly!”

“Don't put Jerry Brown in the same category as Dianne Feinstein.
She's a conservative and he's liberal.”

“Oski?”

“Insurance Money”

“Love for Israel?”

“Do you ever wonder if they are price fixing?”

“A lot of us are still hoping for real reform. In the meanwhile, people need help, and that might mean the necessary evil of temporarily giving money to the money-grabbers.”

“so don't blame these people and vote for reps that will change thingS! call your reps today and demand Universal health coverage. Do it now. You seem very angry at the system, that's great, but you're directing it at the wrong people!!!”

“Dear Lord, the guy who posted about the psycopaths was right.”

“It's a nasty Catch-22. Now the insurance companies (for life, home, health, auto) check your credit report and base their rates on that . . . call them on it and they'll tell you it's 'risk assessment'. So crappy credit numbers get you higher rates on crappy insurance that will scr3w you when you need it.”

“ok, sparky here goes my attempt at relieving your confusion: Most people who file for bankruptcy in this country do so because of medical bills. That means that they have exhausted all means of paying these vampires so they can KEEP THEIR HOMES, cars and food on the table. Most of these people have used their credit cards for food and to pay their electric and water bills due to their situation. They have done everything they can to keep going, without having the leeches take their home.

They need their cars to get to dr. appointments, hubby's job, etc... so they still have to pay for gas and insurance on their vehicles. Millions of americans RIGHT NOW, are using their credit cards to get by.

Use your imagination a bit and you'll see that it's really not that hard to imagine being there. Lose your job and insurance and we'll see how far you get. Get an illness that debilitates you or limits your life and then you'll understand.
In the meantime, be grateful and thankful that you are not going thru something like this!”

“Just an FYI so you can understand.

Today was my first time getting a lawsuit for a medical bill going unpaid in the court I work at.
The hospital can sue the family and if they win, with a judgment they can garnish wages, get their assets in a writ of execution, and even have their licenses taken away.

So the consequences can be much worse than just a bad credit report.”

“Bad credit = no student loans for their kid's college.
Bad credit = can't rent an apartment (in some areas/cities).
Bad credit = may deem a person too big of a security risk for some jobs.
Bad credit = no car loan, if you need a car to get to that job.
Bad credit = maybe, getting sued by your creditors.

In this country, it's not nothing.”

“That's just it. There is no reason. They won't be denied future care. In fact they are insured. This is nothing more than helping this family clean up their credit.”

“haha yeah see my note below the slideshow...

"To research this list we polled the twitterverse and our own office. We have to admit, that while we love these apps, our favorite response was: @GlassHouseApps: "Um, might be best to put the iPhone away on a date?"”

“Universal health care translates to health care for everyone...not necessarily single payer, or public option - it could be the very expensive for profit insurance companies which won't help the economy at all. We need public option, single payer - medicare for all...”

“I am happy to start with the public option if it leads to universal healthcare - like France, Argentina and Israel. Anything less is a crime.

BTW, Jane Harman used to be my congresswoman when I lived in Playa Del Rey. She is one of the best...”

“This is a common scam in the Carribean (and other developing places). Odds are that the "cab driver" is the real bad guy.”

“I do not believe a corporation or any organization should be granted the same rights as a citizen of the United States. If the employees or investors of a corporation want to be active, that is fine. But an "entity" (made up of citizens) should not be afforded Free Speech or be treated as a person.”

“Oh, nonsense. I suppose if we de-criminalize theft, there would be no thieves.

Meth is beyond the pale.”

“Can't agree with that. Who wants a bunch of meth products in their neighbor's house to cause an explosion? That stuff has a specific smell too--Ammonia. No thanks. Keep it illegal.”
