Lil Red, I couldnt have said it better.
With the mortage thing, I know alot of folks that got caught, my mother included. A good democrat I might add. It didnt take a rocket scientist to see it coming. When you get a champagne house on a beer budget with a ARM or intrest only loan, when it comes time to pay the piper, your up shirts creek without a paddle.
I love my mother, but I told her it was a bad deal. Anyone that got caught in that mess, well, its not the governments fault and its damned sure not my fault and we shouldnt have to pay for it. Plain and simple. Ive made plenty of mistakes in my life and paid for every single one. Never got a penny from the government for anything and wont.
As for healthcare, get a damned job that has a group plan or at least one member of your household get one. Hell, thats the only reason my wife is working. She makes good money, but the main reason is so we have healthcare. Again, not rocket science. And damned sure not the government or my place to make sure you got free or cheap healthcare. If you want something get it from the lawyers pockets. They are the reason its so damned high to begin with. My wife works for a doctor and its a crying shame what people will hire an attorney and try to sue for to get something for nothing.
PBR, I can see you havent gone up any IQ numbers. Your too far gone to even discuss things with. However, guns are a big deal to some of us. Even the black guns that annoy you when your on the range.
Im done for now.
