The Left's War On Free Speech

[Spare_change]

Actually, free speech is for everybody .... even you.

Sounds great lol- but in this case it's (often secret) big corporate MONEY. Say goodbye to affordable health care and coverage for pre-existing conditions for example. Shhhh!

And, you know this how?? You have some magic crystal ball that enables you to see all this?

Get back to us when you're ready to talk facts ... that is, if the left hasn't decreed that you're not allowed to speak about it.

Google Citizens United ferchrissake...

Maybe you should do just that ...

Citizens United is nothing more than the Supreme Court decreeing that people have a right to band together to further their political positions. All the harum-scarum from the left doesn't change the simple facts.

CU is a 501(c)4 charitable organization (non-tax deductible) with a mission to "restore the United States government to "citizens' control," seeking to "reassert the traditional American values of limited government, freedom of enterprise, strong families, and national sovereignty and security.".

Part of those people exercising their freedom of speech is thru contribution to various political entities.

Tell me just exactly what part of that you object to?

Maybe you can explain to us just how CU is causing the loss of "... affordable health care and coverage for pre-existing conditions".

Have you seen the new healthcare proposal? Do you know that it is going to be passed in its current configuration. Tell us, tell us, oh please, how you know all these things. (Oh, and by the way, can you check your all-knowing source and tell us who is going to win the next Super Bowl).

It's a ripoff of the poor and those with pre-existing etc, and is a giant tax cut for the rich and medical corporations (deregulation too). Hello?!?

Is that right? Prove it ---- you talk trash, back it up.

Explain to us HOW it is a "ripoff of the poor" and a "giant tax cut for the rich".

It takes away health care from 15 million poor people DUH and is a tax cut for the rich of up to 883 billion dollars, dupe. It's also the end of a possible solution to the old GOP scam system. Hello?!? CHANGE THE CHANNEL AND GET SOME REALITY.

Had you actually bothered to read your own reference, you would have seen that the AHCA transfers responsibility for Medicaid, through phasing, to the states, and then supplements each state's Medicaid program. Nobody is getting pushed off a cliff, nobody is going without .... it merely put the authority, and responsibility, for healthcare insurance at the state level, where it can be more effectively, and accurately, managed.

As for the supposed "$883 billion tax cut" - which your own reference says is nothing more than a guess since the bill hasn't been scored by the CBO yet (oh, there's a source for ya), it is simply reversing the redistribution of wealth engineered by Obamacare.

While I must admit that I enjoy your paranoia for its entertainment value, you need to tone down the rhetoric until you have something concrete to complain about.

Idiot. Cutting the expansion of Medicaid is what? In most states, people will have to go on welfare to get Medicaid again. The 1% has doubled their wealth in the last 35 years of Reaganist tax rates. see sig.

What AHCA actually does .... keeping in mind it is NOT the final version.

INDIVIDUAL MARKET: The AHCA repeals Obamacare's individual mandate tax, which requires every American to purchase a product, fining millions who won't or cannot afford to comply. It rolls back the employer mandate, which has had negative economic impacts, including curtailing some workers' hours. It rolls back, repeals, and delays many of Obamacare's taxes, such as the innovation-stifling medical device tax. It undoes the current law's subsidy system starting in 2020, replacing it with an "age-adjusted, advanceable, refundable" refundable tax credit for individuals and households, raging from $2,000 to $14,000 per year (with generosity levels phasing out for wealthier recipients). It doubles the allowed tax-free annual contribution to Health Savings Accounts, and it shifts the ratio of "age bands" to pre-Obamacare levels, allowing carriers to offer cheaper plans to younger consumers.

MEDICAID REFORM: The AHCA grandfathers in everyone who has been included in Obamacare's expansion of Medicaid, then "transition Medicaid into a system in which each state receives a certain amount of money for each of its residents in the program and has more flexibility over how the program functions. That allocation would revert to per person spending levels from 2016 and then grow each year at the rate of medical inflation. However, states would still receive enhanced Obamacare-levels of spending for individuals who were grandfathered in by having enrolled in expanded Medicaid before 2020." Medicaid already suffered from major flaws such as poor health outcomes and seriously constricted access to care before Obamacare expanded it significantly. One-in-three doctors are not accepting new Medicaid patients. The status quo is hugely expensive, putting major strains on state budgets, and not working well. The whole program cries out for reform, which the AHCA delivers.

PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS: The legislation maintains several of the more popular mandates and protections under Obamacare (although it's worth noting that some of those requirements become much less popular once people are told how much they cost). People with pre-existing conditions must be covered, adult children can stay on their parents' plans through age 26, coverage plans must comply with Obamacare's categories of "essential health benefits," and consumers with pre-existing conditions cannot be charged more than others. On the latter two mandate categories, states have the option to seek waivers from some of the EHB's and "community rating" restrictions. In order to be granted a waiver, states must attest and demonstrate that they are doing so in pursuit of lowering premiums and/or covering more people. Recall that before Obamacare, every single state had a set of mandates and regulations in place. So even if some states apply for and receive voluntary waivers, there will be protections and requirements for consumers who live there. Fear-mongering about a return to the "wild west" are exaggerated.

That's the LAST ACHA March 7, and that's how we know what the CBO thinks. AND a RW bs propaganda site...

Now, you've digressed to name calling? That's the best you've got.

The purpose of Medicaid was to help the poor --- that's what it's for. States will set their own thresholds.

Yeah, according to the right, money = speech, and property = people.

No, it was for the indigent. ACA made it for the poor, and the GOP is trying to cut it again.

STOP THE BLACKLIST
Blocking the Left's kill-shot in its war on free speech.
September 6, 2017

David Horowitz

In Berkeley and Boston, in Portland and San Francisco, leftwing vigilantes organized under banners like Antifa, By Any Means Necessary, and Refuse Fascism, have violently shut down peaceful protests, beating anyone in their path with clubs and truncheons with the express purpose of “denying platforms” to ideas they don’t like. These violent attacks on free speech have been augmented by an equally similar trend pioneered by the Southern Poverty Law Center – a notorious leftwing smear site – and by groups such as the radical BloodMoney.org, which has appropriated the SPLC “hate group” list, re-categorized them as “White Supremacist” groups and targeted the funding sources of dozens of respected conservative organizations in an effort to suppress them

Collectively, these attacks pose the greatest threat to American freedoms in our lifetime.

Confronting and stopping the violent assaults on free speech in the streets or on university quads is a matter for law enforcement. The threat posed by blacklists is different. It requires a vigorous and determined public response. We at the David Horowitz Freedom Center, who are one of the targets of these efforts to suppress conservative viewpoints by stigmatizing them as “hate”, are today launching a campaign to Stop the Blacklist Now designed to rally public opinion and persuade the corporate business interests, the credit card companies who have been targeted by the blacklist organizations, the CEOs of Apple, Google, and JP Morgan who have donated millions of dollars to finance them, to have second thoughts about what they are supporting and to stop doing it.

...

The Freedom Center’s campaign to Stop the Blacklist Now must succeed in rousing a ferocious opposition to this leftist threat. If it doesn't then there will be only one voice in America, that of the radicals. Free speech, already on life support in our university “safe spaces,” will pass away. The Antifa and other leftwing storm troopers will control our streets. We will find ourselves living in a country we no longer recognize as home.

This cannot be allowed to happen. We must fight back against this effort to silence conservatism and strangle free speech. Please join us in this crucial campaign to Stop the Blacklist Now.

Stop the Blacklist
