Sleeping Monkey: Health care stocks? I thought the government owned health care now, how can there still be stocks? Clearly this is liberal propaganda.

what is a publicly traded corporation but a company owned by the people?

corporate america is nothing but a trojan horse for socialism!

That's the Democrats, fighting the big corporations. Yeah...

Auto Insurance.

Oh this ought to be a good thread for level-headed thoughts and replies.

Which probably won't happen, but imagine the financial chaos if it did.

/does not believe it is within the proper scope of government to force people to buy a product

Wall Street doesn't care who is paying the premiums.

This is bad news... for Obama.

/always wanted to say that

It's not unconstitutional to force people to pay into Social Security and Medicare. Why would it be unconstitutional to require that people buy health insurance?

That's state law, not federal.

Because everyone in the US is forced to buy auto insurance or pay a fine, right?

obama trauma: "Buy health insurance or go to jail" = good for insurance companies, no shiat.

Actually its just an increase in your income tax with a deduction if you have insurance. If you decide to take that deduction without having insurance you go in the pile of people who cheated on their taxes. You might go to jail, but you can settle pretty easily too, with all the other tax cheats.

30,000,000 more patients?
Looks like the Health Care industry better start hiring more help.

You are required to have car insurance, too. What's the problem?

Which the new tax on medical devices definitely will.

My question is did they cap co-pays?

If not I'd just sign everyone up take their monthly payments and set the copays at $1000.

Don't like it? To bad you're mandated to stay with me.

Fark.com - Warren Buffett says healthcare costs are limiting America's economic growth. But what does he know, stupid liberal (new window)

Nobody ever went far wrong investing on the advice of a liberal like Warren Buffett. It's why Liberals said they were pulling their 401(k)s out of market-based investments in December 2007 (new window), when the DJIA was at 13,371.72

It's why investing in the S&P under a Dem President returned much more than a GOP President, even if you don't count the destruction that free-market Republican ideas brought about in the late 1920s and early 1930s.



It's why he vies for Richest Bad-Ass Motherfarker On The Planet status.

Do you own a body?

SlothB77: you're right, subby. Mandated consumerism at the threat of jail time is a good thing for businesses and the economy. How about if we take it further - let's mandate all 315,000,000 Americans must buy x number of shoes a year or pay a fine or go to jail? Nike and Steve Madden will love that?

How about we mandate everyone must buy one mattress per year or pay a fine or go to jail? Who will think of the mattress wholesalers?

You really trying to equate life and death issues of healthcare to a pair of Jordans?

heh..

Have sales in K-Y Junior skyrocketed in Florida?

Yes, just like adding 30,000,000 more sub-prime mortgages did wonders for the banking & financial services sectors...

I dont have to buy a car.

I'm positive it's not a perfect solution.

But at least someone had the nuts to make the attempt.

Maybe emergency room response times will improve now eh?

How are Death Panel stocks doing?

You're not required to own a car, though. The living thing, though, is tough to get out of without dying.

With the funny stuff out of the way, I didn't think it was, "go to jail", I thought it go, "be heavily audited by the IRS (then maybe)."

Not that I've been following this much, living in Canada and all.

Still not true, I can own a car and not carry insurance if I choose to. I am OK with what I know about the health care bill so far, but this analogy is retarded. If I don't want to pay for auto insurance I can choose not to drive, therefore every American is not forced to buy auto insurance or pay what is effectively a fine.

Social Security is a better analogy.

It's only Monday, you fools!!!!! Ahhhhaaahhhaaaaaaahaaaaa!!!!
