Second on that. Look at Roman Polanski.

He isn't going to be shown. Another movie like this one was made and people talk to the camera as if it was Mohammed.

Same reason you can't debate the "intellectual's intellectual" Al Gore.

I answered honestly and got no response to my posts.

So, in conclusion, without repeating Radio Host comments, that is my idea. I agree with a lot of what you say, but come to a totally different conclusion. It took me a while to write all of this out. I it is enjoyed for serious thought and discussion.

4. That is because of not enough competition in the market. Most people are underinsured not because they can't get more coverage, but because they don't know that they should. That is how my car insurance used to be until I had an insurance agent solicit me for business. He explained how he could get me more and better car insurance for less. Its amazing how that can be done when insurance isn't tied to the place you work. NEITHER plan would allow us to get insurance outside of a work plan. I take that back. The Democrat plan would, but I don't want to be tied to the government either.
5. If we had proper competition (and once again, adding a single government plan to the market doesn't significantly increase competition) then those companies would go out of business because people wouldn't buy insurance from them.
6. If we had proper competition, then we wouldn't have to subsidize them. A market would be out there to get their business. I believe that is how Wal-mart started...

A few minor clarifications:
1. 50%+ aren't DUE to health care bills, but health care bills do play a factor along with credit card debt, spending beyond their means and several other factors. In the Harvard study that this statistic is cited from, medical bills over $1,000 (not paid by the insurance company) over a 2 year period were included.
2. Absolutely. I used to be in that statistic. I had the money. I didn't spend it on health care. But beyond this, it looks like the proposed republican bill is aimed to help those 25 million rather than trying to overhaul a system for 600 million people.
3. I'm in 100% agreement there as well. I find it as more of a matter of education though.

Mr. Shapiro, I would love to see a funny piece on all the times that Obama has used the phrase "teaching moment". I sure wish he learned before coming onto the job. Teaching moment means he is learning how bad he is at getting caught.

They didn't even throw him under the bus. They "transferred" him to another position. One in which they won't say what he is doing. Sounds like he is getting a free ride and they are trying to make it "appear" that they are doing something. Everybody heard on the tape that they admitted themselves that they were braking the law.
