  1. But is "what you think" the same as "what you can prove". No, but lets take a chance! Hell we took a chance on Iraq! Oh wait, that wasn't a very good chance was it!? ----------------- I love and Miss you so much Honey! Orfun #3 ~ Darla

  3. I thinks that's what is in debate. I'd like to see the numbers before jumping to that conclusion. You assumption might just break the bank. Understandible, but I do not think this would break the bank. ----------------- I love and Miss you so much Honey! Orfun #3 ~ Darla
  4. Exactly! Where do you think all the money came from? Not the Bush administration! But hey, it made him popular for a moment! ----------------- I love and Miss you so much Honey! Orfun #3 ~ Darla
  5. I agree -- somehow I don't think healthcare run by the government will be the best way. They don't seem to be cost effective in many other avenues. I admit, I'm not sure what the answer is, but I don't want to turn over something as important as HC to the government. I might as well let my 5 year old granddaughter pay my bills. That would be as fiscally responsible as allowing the governemnet be in charge. IMHO Anybody remember $150 hammers and a toilet seats? You know, I am sick of people stating that having the government take over health care is a bad thing. I was in the militray for 6 years and still to this day we had the best doctors, the best equipment, and almost any type of coverage (including plastic surgery). Everyone thinks that having the government take over is going to give us shitty health care. What do you think HMO's do? They are worse than the government in the fact that most of them will not pay for your bills if you did not go to their doctor! Having universal health care is not a bad thing. People use the argument that taxes will go up. Well, they will, but if you pay for health insurance already then it will just balance pretty even. I pay $100 a paycheck for my crappy health coverage (and that is low compared to others with children). If you are paying that much now, having universal health care will take those insurance premium aways. So it will probably stay about the same. But now at least, everyone can get taken care of. ----------------- I love and Miss you so much Honey! Orfun #3 ~ Darla

  8. What I really love is when they say that tax cuts (for the wealthy) in the long run will help this country. Let's see........2001 until now. I am still waiting for this great idea to come into play! ----------------- I love and Miss you so much Honey! Orfun #3 ~ Darla

  10. AP Congress Asked to Lift Debt Ceiling Wednesday September 19, 1:19 pm ET By Martin Crutsinger, AP Economics Writer Paulson Tells Congress the Current Debt Ceiling Will Be Hit on Oct. 1 WASHINGTON (AP) -- Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson told Congress on Wednesday that the federal government will hit the current debt ceiling on Oct. 1. He urged quick action to increase the limit, saying it was essential to protect the "full faith and credit" of the country, especially at a time of financial market turmoil. The current debt limit is $8.965 trillion. Unless Congress votes to raise that ceiling, the country would be unable to borrow more money to keep the government operating and to pay debt obligations coming due. The United States has never defaulted on a debt payment but the decision on whether to raise the debt ceiling often sparks a prolonged political battle in Congress. In his letter to congressional leaders, Paulson said that according to data now available, the Treasury expects to hit the current debt ceiling on Oct. 1 -- the first day of the new federal budget year. However, that projection does not take into account maneuvers the government often has to employ of withdrawing investments from certain trust funds to create room for extra borrowing until Congress finally approves a debt increase. "The full faith and credit of the United States, to which we all remain committed, is a national asset and a cornerstone of the global financial system," Paulson said in his letter. "In light of current developments in financial markets, which would be exacerbated by uncertainty in the Treasuries market, I urge the Senate to pass the legislation reported by the Finance Committee to increase the debt limit as soon as possible." The Senate Finance Committee earlier this month approved increasing the limit on the national debt to $9.82 trillion. That boost of $850 billion would be the fifth increase in the government's borrowing limit since President Bush took office in 2001. The national debt is the total accumulation of annual budget deficits, which must be financed with borrowed money. Democrats blame Bush's tax cuts and the war in Iraq for pushing the debt to record levels. Republicans defend the tax cuts, saying the deficit is now on a downward trajectory in part because of the economic stimulus provided by the tax cuts. The House approved an increase in the debt limit in May when it adopted the annual congressional budget resolution, but the full Senate has yet to act to raise the limit. --------- ----------------- I love and Miss you so much Honey!
