In Case You Missed This... Confirmation On What Many Of Us Believed Re: The Publc Option Fight

[Leopolds Ghost]

103. Buck Krugman. He supported the mandate. We're supposed to side with him on every issue why?

Because the wealthy technocratic 53%ers over on Huffingtonpost worship everything he says?

Krugman has all sorts of eccentric opinions.

THE MANDATE WAS A GINGRICH IDEA IN THE 90s, along with Salvage Logging and Welfare Reform
-- two concepts that your liberal townships and liberal representatives have likely endorsed --also--
since then.

The concept of the mandate is to MANDATE THAT PEOPLE BUY INSURANCE FROM PRIVATE PROVIDERS
in order to PROTECT THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY FROM LOSSES that would come from agreeing to
insure people with pre-existing conditions -- NO MENTION of affordability or universal access -- indeed
the Public Option is there to prevent the need for private insurance to have to cover everyone. It's not
meant to be an option for everyone, only for THOSE WHO CAN AVOID A FINE. The idea was to fine
5% or 10% of the public (for not having insurance -- or not willing to be scammed in order to get
insurance) to cover the remaining 5%, and force everyone else to buy private insurance.

THAT was the MATH advanced by the EXPERTS THEMSELVES who wrote the bill.
