That makes sense.



Who told you that the income tax is against the Constitution? The 16th Amendment of my Constitution states:

Amendment XVI
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several states, and without regard to any census or enumeration.


Now I think there might be a decent case made for how this shouldn’t have become an Amendment…but like it or not…it’s now part of the Constitution. Of course…this is what can happen when you go around Amending the Constitution. Handle with care.



The idea of a national sales tax is a joke. Look at FactCheck on it.
If they are paying your health care, they are paying you why you are at home.

Hillary was describing her struggle — I believe it was earlier today or yesterday — like the struggle of oppressed women around the world and the Middle East and "I'm with them, and I'm enduring this." What do you make of this?

MILLER: First off, I think Geraldine Ferraro and Eleanor Clift have to get a small business loan and get their hair together. Because there's no reason a woman has to — there's no reason a woman has to look like David McCallum from "Man from U.N.C.L.E."

INGRAHAM: Brutal. I disassociate myself from hair comments, given my hair problems.

Nobody loves me!!!!!

I was proud of this nappy, and sometimes crude, boxer wearing guy recognizing that he likes to see a feminine woman and not the likes of Geraldine, et al.

Kudos to Dennis Miller!!!

Here’s a thought that might blow your mind…I personally don’t believe businesses should be involved in the provision of health insurance at all. Why make businesses responsible for that kind of expense??? My personal view is that everyone should pay into a single payer national health insurance program where insurance premiums are negotiated with private insurers and supplemented by the tax revenues paid into the system pay those who benefit from it. Everyone should have to pay something toward their health insurance. Right now if I didn’t have insurance I could go to the ER and get treatment. They would bill me. I could simply refuse to pay. Now, consider that there are over 10 million or more of me…that would fuel the rise in health care cost as providers increased costs to cover the loss. As health care costs rise…insurers have to raise premiums to cover those costs. Now YOU the business owner is found stuck paying more or handing more of that cost to the backs of your hard working employees. I say take you and your business out of the equation and let you focus on business. Negotiate rates with companies and then have everyone pay a lower negotiated premium and taxes into the system so all are covered. As providers are actually paid in a timely manner the cost of healthcare would drop exponentially. Not to mention a national medical records database would reduce health care costs 30%.

National health insurance would make health insurance an issue between the voters and their elected representatives. As a business man…you don’t even have to worry about nothing but business.
No, the businessman would have to worry about doing business in an environment where there was excessive government regulation, Chr... I mean, Grasshopper.

Right now the "health care industry" makes up approximately 1/5 of GDP. Nationalizing 1/5 of GDP would have a considerable effect upon the other 4/5's. Removing what elements of the free market that still exist within our health care system would immediately drive up costs.

A national medical records database may or may not reduce costs, but it would also provide information for the social engineers to start making other decisions for you as well. Just look at what Hillary did when she was able to get the FBI files of her husband's political enemies. And you then want me to trust these same people with my genome?

Health care should be a matter between me and my doctor - NOT me and my "elected representatives," Chr... I mean Grasshopper. My "elected representatives" are supposed to clean my streets - my doctor and I have discussions that are fundamentally more private in nature.

I don't think I am entitled to anything, this is so fitting because you think we got to where we are as business owners by luck, entitlement, or whatever else besides taking tremendous risk, incurring debt, with the desire to be happy.

You believe that business should exist for the sake of creating a teat for the impoverished classes. Wrong Pal, small business owners understand the true meaning of what America is all about and that is empowerment to be and do better.

Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime, give a man a fish and he will want you to give him two fishes tomorrow including the one you have for your family. Refuse and this man will go away crying saying the MAN is holding him back.
Maybe if it were someone you loved who died because they didn't have health insurance to cover the necessary treatments you'd care. Does it bother you that nearly 18,000 people die every year because they lack the insurance coverage they need?
