I thought we burnt everything LF touched after he left. I mean I thought it was required by Imperator decree or some shit, he gave me a nice Persian rug that I would have saved if I thought we could get away with not burning it.

My hopes is that what I have to say and the reasons why will become understandable and inspiring. We already have systems set up here But what we have works against us. 1. Employees are basically forced to accept Workers Compensation Insurance. Our employers pay about $500 amount per employee. That $500 is subtracted from the employees worth. That adds up to about $6500 a year. We pay into social security, that is Medicare. Medicare is a better alternative to Workers Compensation. We also pay into Medicaid as well as Unemployment. The amount we pay in to Medicare, Medicaid and Unemployment is really a small amount. We need the right to slide the amount taken from the employee to Medicare, Medicaid and Unemployment that in it's self would cover health care for all. This in it's self would not work by it's self because safety laws would have to be passed so that no other agency private or government can be allowed to take from it like the CIA did years ago. Look, $6500 x 150,000,000 Americans is almost a Trillion dollars a year the best health care system we already have. Just not used correctly. Further more and most likely the Bank that you used is an insurance broker it's self. They send or offer several policies that can put about $6000 in your pocket a month until you return to work and even more if you become permanently disabled.

Speaking of private care, I'm not sure if it was a Trump proposal or someone Republican in general, but I heard he wants to allow inter-state insurance options which by default would drive prices down through competition.

The interstate option has been on the table and off again a lot longer than just a few years. Another helpful option is for automobile insurance be on you drivers license. And for Obama care... Everything he promised to us was a lie. So HELL NO!!!

Automobile insurance on your license? Why does it matter if it's there?

There are good points on both sides and one side I will attempt to show is the private side. Many wealthy people comes to the U.s. because of the best doctors who are in private care. All doctors pays for their own education and the better doctors pays more for better education and they chose to be paid for it.

To answer Xineoph's question on:Automobile insurance on your license? Why does it matter if it's there?
There best reason is that no matter what you are driving you and it are covered. One rate one price fits all. It is a lot faster all the way around if your insurance follows you and not the thing your driving. Sports cars and suv's cost more in insurance rates that other vehicles. Insurance being on your drivers license qualifies you no matter what you drive.
