Really, it is starting to sound to me that a third party has very quietly been organized and it is there to support corporations.

Am I wrong? If you agree with me that we now have 3 political parties what do you see as the ramifications of a "Corporate Party"?

Perhaps it is because my own personal odometer clicked over to 48, 5 days ago and maybe the realization that my life was probably half gone 7 or 8 years ago has driven me crotchety, I don't know.. but it's a thought. But for the life of me I can not figure out what the fuck the right in this country is trying to accomplish. Or exactly what it is they want.

When you ask someone on the right what they want and once they get past "Private" all you hear are crickets. No shit... I haven't the slightest idea what they ARE FOR. Truth be told I don't think they know what they are for, so here are a few questions for those on the Whiny Right that I would love to see answered.

     1. If the child of a rich person and a poor person suffer from the same disease should they both get the same care? If you answered NO then we can stop the discussion right hear and declare that you are Heartless Bastards and we all know that heartless bastards are first cousins to the Soul Eating Bastards some call health insurance companies. Come on... you can not really believe that care should be different based on the amount of money someone has. If you do believe that you can stop reading because the questions are gonna get harder.

     2. Why is America  rated 29th in infant mortality? The reason is because we have a pay to play health care system just like our government has become. Think about it how much longer is it going to take before OUR government is a "holy" owned subsidiary of Megacorp. Big business is stealing our form of government right from under our noses.

     3. Why is America rated so low in longevity? See answer to question 2.

     4. Whiny Right if you were kings for a day how would you fix health care? I haven't got a clue to that answer.  "CRICKETS?"

     5 .Why not Medicare for all? And you have to have an answer that doesn't run to the defense of the Soul Eating Bastard Industry or as you call them Health Insurance Companies. I fully expect to hear "CRICKETS"

     6. How do we bring you along, what must we do to get you, the "whiny right" to shit or get off the pot... so to speak. What will make this work for you? What will make you stop the defense of the SEB Industry.

Over 230 years ago Ben Franklin thought that the only hope for our democracy is for people to respect each other enough to compromise. Now my perfect plan for health care reform would be to step on the throats of every single health insurance company until there was no other option than a government run single payer system. My side gave that up without a fight actually, now how far will you move to meet me in the middle. There is a song, I can't begin to tell you by who or even all the words but in the song somewhere it says "we'd both gain a lot if we just give a little" Think about that... when we quit playing politics with actual lives... how much do you think we can accomplish.

Sorry if this seems rather scattered, rain is on the way and it's a painful day. (Those with bad knees or other joints know the feeling). More soon.

5 days ago my "odometer" rolled over to 48 and maybe thats why I'm not seeing the Home run and although I liked the speech I don't really think it moved the debate one way or another.

So you all make me see the light... because while the speech may have been a hit it sure didn't look like a home run to me. PLEASE a little help.
