    Past a certain degree of great excess anything is grotesque, even the quintessential beauty of wealth.

    Though most of the richest individuals are not the problem, in fact the rich themselves alone have a smaller proportion of the world's wealth than you would think. Even the fortunes of Gates and Slim pale in comparison to Exxon's holdings, Citibank finances them, and finally 12 insurance companies still own the entire world, just like they did years ago

    Always been the same . Rockefeller financed the Suez Canal and the creation of Israel. Money controls. Only
    way to survive is to get a science degree. Good luck on hoping Don will bring back high school $50/ hr jobs. Dream on trumpets. He's been screwing his friends all his 70 years and can't stop now

    You are asking a question that an internet poster cannot accurately answer, you wait 3 whole minutes and then post about the lack of answers. I hope we can all be covered, but I don't see it happening. There are people who will not get coverage no matter is they can afford it or not.

    No digression here. He is pointing out how corporate welfare necessitates regular welfare, like MoW, legitimate part of the discussion therefore.

    It's a long way from nyc to confederate land. The irony is most welfare confederates voted for Don.

    You make a good point here. Republicans are often too eager to cut failed programs and inadequate benefits without offering a better alternative that does not harm Americans.

    The RP should be as eager to strengthen ordinary Americans as it is to strengthen the military.

    Anything over
    Anything over 3 paras with no solution/number I quit.

    Strengthening the military doesn't necessarily mean increasing funding.

    If they had bothered to educate themselves, maybe we wouldn't be so rich.

    At who? Rich people? certainly not, I like and admire them, even the Kochs and Robert Mercer (though not much them).

    As far as the Corporate People of Great Wealth I dunno. Giving them Welfare, even if it does create a few jobs, (and it's relatively few) seems wasted on me, as they aren't real people and can't appreciate it, (though maybe their stockholders, many of whom could be candidates for MoW, might, ambiguous and iffy thing this)

    Republicans have always been self-sacrificing to better the whole.

    This is the hole in Trump's plan. He presumes people want to work.

    What are you going on about this time?

    Seriously, what are you even talking about?

    Your name shows up quite often in my quote box and I'd say 99% of the time your responses have almost nothing to do with the text of mine that was quoted.

    I saw this report on TV. I gave Ms. Preast the one finger salute. I have been doing that a lot lately. To people like her and the 60 year olds who are suddenly faced with massive (unaffordable?) increases in their health insurance premiums. In about a year I'll probably wear my finger out when the coal workers realize they aren't going back in the mines and the steel workers realize their shuttered mills aren't going to reopen.

    Yes, ALL Americans be covered and, as promised, it will be beautiful.


    The above is sarcasm. I needed to state that because even the most outrageous sarcastic remark sounds just like main stream TrumpSpeak.

    The Masons and the IOOW among others support MoW and will continue to, we just wonder why our government shouldn't be as charitable as we are, since they are using our taxes. If you think that we are REALLY getting better value by supporting submarine warfare to fight the desert based Caliphate I guess nothing I say will ever make a dent.
