I'm a proponent of you should not have to research what has been in the news for years unless you are a total illiterate!!

So you're incapable of supporting your position. Not surprising.

Government forcing one to pay them and have their lives controlled by them; sounds like a form of slavery to me.

Before ACA everyone with insurance was forced to pay for those who didn't have it through higher premiums and costs , also try driving without car insurance see how DMV reacts, that should also mean (by your cracka Logik) people who don't have children in school shouldn't have to pay their portion of property taxes that go towards schools

Gatsby is a goofy libertarian, and you know how that goes.

...socialism (killed 120 million in USSR and Red China)...

No.

dear, what does "no" mean in this context????

No means it conflicts with his world view, therefore it didn't happen.

You misjudged that one, too.

Sounds more like tyranny to me.

Your pretense at interpreting what other posters mean.

this is true of course; the more welfare you grant the more you have to grant thus you are always making the problem worse, especially now that the schools are liberal sewers creating more dependency rather than less

Carson is not stupid, just not ready for being president.

He will never be ready until he values civilization, the need to pay taxes to run it and understands science.

Sadly he's probably right. ACA is a huge move toward socialism (killed 120 million in USSR and Red China) when we know that capitalism would reduce prices 80% and add 10-20 years to our life expectancies.

The guy is definitely no rocket scientist.

 

[Arianrhod]

...we know that capitalism would reduce prices 80% and add 10-20 years to our life expectancies.

Just as it did between the 1970s when the for-profit insurers entered the market and 2014.

Yay...Capitalism!!

Specialists in infectious disease are protesting a gigantic overnight increase in the price of a 62-year-old drug that is the standard of care for treating a life-threatening parasitic infection.

The drug, called Daraprim, was acquired in August by Turing Pharmaceuticals, a start-up run by a former hedge fund manager. Turing immediately raised the price to $750 a tablet from $13.50, bringing the annual cost of treatment for some patients to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

dear, for profit and capitalist are different. The insurers were not allowed to compete which is at the heart of capitalism. Thus profits and prices go up.

Do you understand now??

What are you talking about?

What are you talking about?

McCarran Ferguson in 1946 made interstate insurance , in effect, illegal

dear, interstate competition is illegal so no capitalism, very high prices, and very low quality

interstate competition is illegal

Which has nothing to do with McCarran-Ferguson.

so no capitalism

No profits, no stockholders? On what planet?

very high prices, and very low quality

Which the PPACA was created to rectify.

Are you even aware that everything you post makes the case for the PPACA?
