“Excellent post, new Fan!
We already have single Payor, Medicare. Through Reconciliation it can become a budget change, increase the Medicare payroll tax and remove the Bush Era Wealthcare tax breaks will pay for it. We need 60 vote to stop a fillibuster and get Reconciliation done with 50 + 1 Biden. I will happily pay 15%. That is the portion I pay for my wonderful 15K deductible BCBS Health Insurance. You know the one, the for mega profiteers that are rationing Healthcare.”

“Ten years ago I was diagnosed with Hyper-thryoidisim. My heart raced, I was hot in cold environments and could not gain weight. The theroy was my stresslevels were so high and I internalized everything I basically blew my thyroid.

“Making my way in business, promotions and positions in the 80's typically held by men, never once was I allowed shelter from the storm.
The self imposed sexisim I see is the from the obvious coddling , hidden from true questioning she is sent out to repeat the same tired snipping speech day in and day out.
Her ability to encite the dwindling masses into hateful screams of "Terrorist" and "Kill Him" is appaulling as she accepts these lunitics with a wink and a smile.
Anyone that thinks these two are fit for office scares me, not for who they are but what they represent - the worse of human nature, stuff I thought our childen would never see.

“It appears that many of their "stories" are embellished.
This reminds me of his "story" in his book how he gave the Bears Defensive Line" names as his squad members then in recent weeks while in PA he said he gave the names of the Steelers.
Either he is having a hard time remembering or having a hard time remembering his "fabrications"!
After all, who can back up anything he claims happened in VN?
Yes, he suffered as a Prisioner but so did many many others.”
