Congressional Democrats and the ACA


At some point someone will awaken to the fact the ACA is not healthcare, it is a set of regulation for health insurance providers.  I have sat by since 2010 watching the crazy over allowing more people to purchase health insurance at an affordable rate. 

 The ACA is not President Obama’s idea.  It is the brainchild of the Republican party’s think tank, The Heritage Foundation.  It is geared to put more public dollars into the hands of private enterprise.  It is not the plan actually put forth by President Obama. 

Yet, we still have some Democrats running away from the ACA instead of calling it out very simple as I have done in less than 250 words.  We need Democrats with spines to be elected to office.  People unafraid to say, “ACA is not the best but it is better than no regulation of the healthcare insurance market.”  It is simple.  Each Democrat in Congress should be in his or her state making such things known.  It is not for the President to push ACA.   Congress, grow an loving spine and talk to the people. 

Congressional Democrats, tell to the people the good of the ACA and what you would do to make it better.  Grow a loving spine.  At this stage you should understand the people really don’t want GOP governance.  The only people seeking GOP legislation are those who desire to continue the economic oppression of others and those who fear they are becoming a minority.

Take me over the cliff - again

I expect many Americans in my fiscal position are fed up with the GOPs continued fight for the rights of the wealthy to pay less in taxes.  I say take me over the cliff.  I recently found a Twitter account regarding the $250K threshold.   Many of the tweets\RTs where describing the hardships of $250K living.   It is time for a reality check across the board in America.    If the grown-ups were honest about this fiscal mess, they would admit the tax cuts must end for all.  The ending should be in stages to reduce the likelihood of the need for public assistance for working\working-poor families.  Although $250K is different for different parts of the U.S.A it does mean you are not in the ghetto. There is no $250K/individual ghetto in America. If you are reading this posting and you know of such a ghetto, please let me know for I need to move to that state.  If taxes go up for individuals making $250K and above they will not face a n...

Y'all should eat my grits no cheese

It is two days after the GOP primary in Mississippi. We are still laughing at Mitt's attempt to cuddle up to us with cheesy grits and a few y'alls thrown in. In my area of Mississippi it is yaw'all(10 second word). Had he come here expecting us to be able to count to 20 without removing our shoes, he may have been taken a little bit more seriously. I am not sure if Mitt's grits ranks with Bush's "this part of the world" statement after Katrina but it ranks. Truthfully, I enjoy cheese in my grits along with garlic and red pepper. However, I do not think my love of grits, a bowl every morning, makes me Southern. Although I was born in Southern California and partially reared in Southern Wisconsin, I consider myself a full blown Mississippian. Along with keeping my grits to myself, I also speak without care of accent. The fact that I can tell you how to get from Memphis to the Coast without using the interstate or Google says I am from Mississippi. ...

Food for thought

When I read or hear of Minorites loving welfare I think how those in know actually love having minorities on welfare. Hair care in minority communities is huge business. There is a reason Koreans own/operate Black hair care shops. It is a money maker. When minorities concentrate their money within their communities they create jobs. However it takes money out of circulation in the larger community. It is then we see legislation that forces the money into the larger community. I am not against regulations that benefit the public welfare. I do question legislation that is designed to hinder the freedoms of a particular group. It may seem small. I may be off base. However I find it to be horse pucky to claim minorities love welfare while inhibiting the ability of minorities to be self sufficient. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/mobileweb/2012/02/17/crackdown-on-barbers-brin_0_n_1285233.html
