This is what the Democrats do. They divide and create class warfare to get what they want, thus to punish the do gooders with more taxes and regulations

Dom: Here are the real answers:

They take their business to the Far East because they value wealth above people…they are taxed heavily because they are wealthier than the majority of people.

THEY TAKE THEIR BUSINESS THERE TO BE COMPETITIVE, OTHERWISE THEY WILL BE OUT OF BUSINESS.

Factor “X” is GREED. Only by encouraging people to invest IN PEOPLE, rather than in money do you solve the problem.

THIS MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL.

Americans opposed to universal health care value money, not people.

WHAT HAS THE GOVERNMENT EVER RUN THAT WAS SUCCESSFUL? DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT IS IN THE BILL/LAW? WHY DO WE NEED ANOTHER AGENCY, WHY NOT REQUIRE EVERYONE ABOVE A CERTAIN INCOME LEVEL TO PURCHASE INSURANCE AND THEY COVER EVERYONE ELSE BY HAVING THE GOVERNMENT BUY THE POLICIES FOR THEM?

As the only industrialised country that does not have a universal health care system, the USA stands alone. No doubt your taxes would be better spent on another illegal invasion of an oil rich arab nation or yet another prison to add to all your collection.

ONE, CANADIANS COME TO THE US FOR HEATHCARE, NOTE ONE OF THEIR HIGH UP OFFICIALS DID IT JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO, WONDER WHY.

TWO, WITHOUT OIL, OUR COUNTRY COMES TO A HALT.

IT’S REALLY EASY TO UNDERSTAND WHY YOU ARE POOR.

It’s really amazing how many losers out there that bash the wealthy. The wealthy got there because there were smarter than you losers in the bottom ranks.

So what if they have many assets. Do they use more of the roads, more of the schools?

You losers don’t get it. You want to whine about their incomes because your’s is so poor.

Health care is nothing but a hidden tax. Healthcare will not improve, it will get worse. Next is BS Cap and Trade, even though we all know Global Warming id BS dreamed up to steal more of your money.

Will you please quit listening to the mass media propaganda and start thinking for yourself. I know that you are poor and stupid, but the internet is your library of knowledge. Learn to use it, maybe your incomes will increase and you will take the other side of the argument. FOOLS!

“The 1% of the richest people currently pay 40% of the taxes, and the top 5% pay 60% of the taxes already. Keep taxing them and they will take their businesses to other countries and make us loose jobs….oh wait they are already starting to do that!”

They take their business to the Far East because they value wealth above people…they are taxed heavily because they are wealthier than the majority of people.

Factor “X” is GREED. Only by encouraging people to invest IN PEOPLE, rather than in money do you solve the problem.

Americans opposed to universal health care value money, not people.

Solution…stop worshipping money & start valuing people. Or is that too “socialist” for you?

The current tax system does not work. I am in favor of the flat tax system, that way we can all take responsibility for our current debt. This reform bill will mainly expand medicaid at the cost of the states’ budgets. We will all be paying more taxes, whether its at a federal, state, or local level. Unemployment rates will rise as more businesses get fed up with trying to maintain the cost of employess, and then we will increase our entitlement programs even more (because more and more folks will have their hands out asking for their share). 1/3 of working americans support the 2/3′s that do not. Pretty soon, the well will dry up.

I have just one question, I don’t get how the health care reform is going to provide health care to 32 million uninsured people like they are claiming! How is that supposed to happen when the bill will only raise health insurance rates since they are taxing the health insurance companies? Is placing a fine on people that can’t afford it now going to make it suddenly more affordable? Please help me understand where I’m just not seeing how this is going to provide 32 million uninsured with health insurance???

Europe spends half of what the u.s.a. does on health care and they live 4 years longer…why not just copy the German and French systems….if we quit the illegal and immoral wars of occupation and murder then we can provide humane health care…and stop the bank welfare….make the rich pay their fair share of taxes…90%tax rate on the millionaires in the 1950s..where is an Ike for president..revolution….

We already have universal healthcare. Anyone, citizen or not, can walk into an emergency room and recieve care, or have a baby in the maternity ward-FREE OF CHARGE-IT’S ALREADY THE LAW. My wife is a nurse and confirms the above to me. Who is paying for the above-we all are right now, as costs are passed onto those with insurance. The healthcare bill will do nothing but allow the government to require the healthy and young to pay for our universal healthcare system under the guise that the program is for them. The program will be as successful as social security-I’m 35, and know that I’ll never collect a dime of the money that I and my employers have paid into the system. Or, if I do live long enough to recieve a check, the purchasing power of it will be near zero. If the healthcare bill passes, we’ll forever pay more, but continuously recieve less. If the government wasn’t already so involved in healthcare (via medicare/medicaid-and the associated fraud), it wouldn’t be as expensive as it is now-Another example-just look at the prescription drug bill where the government didn’t allow for the prices of drugs to be negotiated with the big pharmas. One last thought, another reason healthcare is expensive is because salaries in the medical professions have kept up with government created inflation-it’s kind of hard to outsource those jobs to cheap labor sources-thankfully!

Yes, this is a major social problem.. the problem of the ‘middle rich.’ No doubt their money doesn’t by the foreign citizenship or villa it used to.

The majority of middle rich have already left the United States. They have bought citizenship and villas and just ask NY State, New Jersey. All their money is tied up in gold; otherwise they are broke.
