Romney's Health Care leaves 72 million WITHOUT insurance!!

Post by RATTdrools »

It was just shown on CNN's Sanjay Gupta's show that Romney's health care plan would leave 72 million without insurance according to the Conservation Fund!

Sanjay also played a clip that showed Romney saying not everyone would be covered under his so called pledge to cover pre-existing conditions!

Romney is a patholgical liar that must be stopped!

Aside from what he now claims, the welfare of those people is not a high priority for him. He has bigger fish to fry.

DRJ, what do you think the final count will be on election day with regards to the electoral college?
Make a prediction, I'll do the same. Anyone else for that matter.

Even IF that number is fair, which I doubt, I'll take it over 12 million unemployed.

I pay less for health insurance than I do for auto and I do it on my own as a self employed person. The idea the govenment has to step in to stop the "health care crisis" is complete bullshit. Yeah, we need a few tweaks, not the socialazation of 20% of the GDP that we got.

BTW - Were we not supposed to see our rates go down under this Obamacare horseshit? Mine have gone up 15% since that shit passed.

Open your fucking eyes people.

How is Romney going to create jobs faster than Obama? His economic plan is exactly the same as Bush's economic plan.

Here's Bush's record on private sector jobs growth:

Private sector employment (thousands) & 12 month change
Jan 2001 111631====
Jan 2002 109214====-2417
Jan 2003 108644====-570
Jan 2004 108883==== 239
Jan 2005 110718====1835
Jan 2006 113250====2532
Jan 2007 115023====1773
Jan 2008 115647====624
Jan 2009 110985====-4662

Here's Obama's record:

Jan 2009 110985
Jan 2010 106800====-4185
Jan 2011 108207====1407
Jan 2012 110470====2263

Bush had an 8 trillion dollar housing bubble boosting job growth. 2004 to 2007 were the only years he did not have totally shitty private sector job growth. Those were the years when the bubble took off.

Home prices in phoenix and vegas:
http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/graph/?g=bN1

Obama has had a economy recovering from a crash of an 6.5 trillion dollar housing bubble.

Home equity - 6.5 trillion gone
http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/graph/?g=bN2

The idea that Romney will improve the economy in any way has no basis in fact. It's pure fantasy.

Socialization of 20% of GDP? What the fuck are you babbling about? Socialized means there is no private sector spending on health care. The private sector is currently spending 1.8 trillion a year on health care. GDP is 15.58 trillion. That's 11.5% of GDP spent by private sector. The socialized part (medicare, medicaid, VA, etc) is 6.8% of GDP (federal, state, local). In 2008 it was 6.4% of GDP. So health care has not become more socialized under Obama. Health care prices simply rise faster than whatever else the govt spends money on.

Take it up with your health insurance company. Health care inflation is much slower under Obama than under Bush. They are ripping you off. Find another carrier. You just said health insurance only needs a few tweeks.

Cute stats sweetie. I think its GREAT you can still squeeze into your cheerleader uniform.

The Reality?

The average unemployment rate under Bush was 4.8%, not counting 2008 - 5.5% if we include that year. In order to average the same percentage each month, the economy would have had to added a nominal 120,000 per month just to keep even with population growth, or 12 million jobs during the Bush years.


The charts, all put together by his enemies, show 3 million. Nonsense. 3 million jobs over the course of the Bush term, amounts to 31,000 jobs created per month - a depressionary total, much less recessionary.


Under the Obama scheme of heightened regulations, federal funding going to Big Labor, the growth of the public sector job community, the fastest increase of our welfare roles in history, and the longest period of paid unemployed benefits in American history, we have the highest number of those in "poverty" in the last 30 years, 42 consecutive months of 8% [or higher] unemployment, the most since the Great Depression, the lowest number in our workforce in 40 years, and 2 million fewer job positions in 20 years.

DRJ, I'd be thrilled if you would post a chart (with links) Pointing my ass to a chart, and a company, that would give me a decent policy at less a rate then I was paying in 2010. I'll accept it being adjusted for inflation. For the record, I'm on Blue cross with a $2,500 deductable. I'm paying about $130 bucks a month and have had the policy since 2005 (when I paid $108.00)

Too late the election is the pocket pal! Obama had his chance abnd all he did is encourage people to go on welfare and use foodstamps, get people on unemploymenty insurance for 2 years non stop (who the hell wants to work when you get a free check for 2 years straight), lie and pender to Wall St, Big Pharma, Health insurance company, bombing more country than G W Bush can chake a stick at...wuy isnt he taken accountable and with the same standards as George W Bush was?

You think hes above the law? Oh yeah hes the savior and the messiah and the first Arab presidents. (check yur facts hes only 5% black). What about having lower University grades than George W Bush. Martin Luther King, Jesse Jackson and Malcom X are great black men who served the people well but Obama is just an american hatin, communist sucking, Donkey fucking muthertrukka!!! Have you taken a look at his team? oh god!??!?! :lol:


Romneys plan is to create jobs so people can buy their own health care! Look what he did in his state of Michigan where schools are ranked first in the country and he did install a form of Obamacare (wow that terme is retarded 7 ways to Sunday :lol: ) that works.

Check his track records, he did gut some companies but being president will stop him doing that and thats another plus Obama has lost the election by 5 points.

Have a nice day!

You're an idiot Speddy, that's no mistake. You're definitely no inellectual...

And if "Obamacare" is so retarded, why do you and the Republitards enjoy using it so much? You know? Like you did in your post.. :lol:

It's possible if the current polls out of Ohio are to be believed. Pennsylvania would be more difficult for Romney even though it is now in play. I give Pennsylvania to Obama.
