This is awesome!
I'm going to get my teeth whitened, LASIK, Lipo, a penis enlargement, and some botox in my buttocks.
Seriously though - how will we decide which procedures should be covered?
Do the youth of America want to obligate ourselves to paying for expensive knee operations for fat ***** 80 year olds that can't take care of their health? With the old folks retired (and no longer paying income taxes) which generations should pick up the tab? If our $30,000 per citizen national debt was important, I'd say that the old folks should be paying their own way before we give them another entitlement. Forget the war on terror - Our debt is the real threat to America's survival: http://www.brillig.com/debt_clock/- badnewshotel, on 04/28/2008, -18/+5Best comment I've seen in a month.
- mbonzo531, on 04/28/2008, -7/+6We should not forget our war on terror... it is the major reason we have debt in the first place. People want to vote for a democrat to bring foreign spending home so that it goes to things such as healthcare. Yes we need to settle the debt, but we can do that at the same time we offer healthcare. As for teeth whitening and what not... I hope you're aware of how private insurance covers these proceedures.
- noahhoward, on 04/28/2008, -2/+2You forget about how we couldn't afford it when we had a surplus?
- Scheissen, on 04/28/2008, -7/+5You offer too much logic for these Diggers. You will be dugg down.
- Stevanoski, on 04/28/2008, -8/+3Sigh, what has happened to the party of compassion?
- forgiste, on 04/28/2008, -4/+1Actually, the more debt we have the more money we're allowed to print. The real enemy is that system itself, the Federal Reserve. Also, I may be wrong, but I don't think that free healthcare covers cosmetic surgeries.
- InnerRayg, on 04/28/2008, -1/+1You're not wrong, but it's a lot easier to attack Free Healthcare when you turn it into a strawman like he did. Love to check his "facts", but sadly his links are broken. Someone already killed his false statistics on the Bush/Clinton tax amounts though, so I'm willing to postulate there is a similiar breakdown in his other numbers. How does an illegal immigrant get welfare in the first place anyway? I'm pretty sure it requires citizenship.
- jbenson2, on 04/28/2008, -2/+6Thanks sonny, just keep paying your taxes to pay for the retired folks and the baby boomers. Certainly appreciate it.
- Dested, on 04/28/2008, -0/+6It works in other countries you know... Are you saying that americans are to greedy to have free healthcare?
- yojiffyskippy, on 04/28/2008, -4/+3"free" healthcare? Just the fact that you think it's free says a lot about your understanding of the issue.
- thirdcoastborn, on 04/28/2008, -6/+33hillary's plan will garnish your wages if you don't purchase health insurance.
- RRJackson, on 04/28/2008, -7/+6As it should be. Otherwise you're going to see people on tight budgets opting out of healthcare to save a few bucks.
- Azriel7, on 04/28/2008, -2/+3Lets see, pay bills and put food on the table or buy health insurance? Decisions..decisions....
- RRJackson, on 04/28/2008, -5/+1Look, who doesn't have health insurance? Smart people? No. Chimps. Chimps don't have health insurance and they aren't likely to spend money on it unless they have to. Which means that when they get sick they can't pay their hospital bills. Chimps need to be forced to buy health insurance. Health care being optional defeats the entire purpose of having a national health care system. Cause you don't need a national health care system to take care of people who have their ***** together. You need it for chimps who don't know a damn thing about planning for their futures.
- EllimistX, on 04/28/2008, -2/+3What if I don't care to get healthcare coverage.... I will not be forced into getting something I don't want, regardless of budget. That's my problem with this plan.
- RRJackson, on 04/28/2008, -3/+1Really? So you don't pay taxes? Cause we force you to pay for all kinds of things you probably don't want every year. And you have a problem with having health care? Just don't want to be patched-up if something falls on you? See, that's exactly why it shouldn't be optional. Chimps won't think it's important enough to spend their cigarette money on.
- Fordi, on 04/28/2008, -1/+2That it is something I would not deny does not give anyone the right to use my money to buy it. That's the basic rule all government should follow.
- gsxrjason, on 04/29/2008, -1/+1The Health Care tax would be the only tax in this country you have to pay for being alive. All other taxes are a result of something; income, purchases, etc.
- EllimistX, on 04/29/2008, -1/+1I pay taxes, it's the sucky part of being single and making decent money... But I also have a disease that I know will kill me in the next 15 years or so if I don't get the medicine to treat it. I know my dad's insurance used to raise hell about paying $36,000 every two weeks for it back when I was under his insurance, so I just got off of it. I'd rather not have to lose money in taxes paying for something that probably won't cover what I need, so I made my peace with my disease and just don't care about it anymore...
- slabdigger, on 04/28/2008, -0/+2Healthcare would be one of the taxes I would most be happy to pay. At least with a national health care plan, you get something directly for your money. And more importantly, every single US company becomes more profitable. oh. Except the insurance companies.

- RRJackson, on 04/28/2008, -1/+1No. You don't get to decide whether or not you're going to pay for the police, the fire department, the roads, the military, your retirement and hopefully soon your medical coverage.

- yojiffyskippy, on 04/28/2008, -7/+4And Obama is going to take your money to pay for your deadbeat neighbor that "can't" pay for his own healthcare. Here's a thought - cut spending enough to finance your socialized medicine.
- Lazydriver, on 04/28/2008, -2/+7Seriously, shut the ***** up you elitest cow. You have no idea on how poor people got to where they are, so really, shut the ***** up unless you are one.

- Pherdnut, on 04/28/2008, -6/+5I really need to do some googling to see if it's just the Digg bias or if aside from those 3 a week or two ago that the Clintonistas were spazzing over, Hillary just isn't getting the endorsements at all.

- DeejayPancake, on 04/28/2008, -0/+2Wtf? We'll win the war? Oh yes, sir, we'll win it. After years of our men dying, and the fact that we're already plenty of men down. But no fear, Iraq'll totally thank us in the end.
- TheSwashbuckler, on 04/28/2008, -0/+9We CANNOT win the war - the war is between the Iraqis. We're just in the middle.
- Fordi, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1Additionally, the 'war on terror' is rather directly a war on the fundie islam world. I'm not saying this is a terrible thing, but it intellectually dishonest to go around saying we're fighting against an emotion when we're rather explicitly fighting against people whos core beliefs are based on "(paraquote) kill or convert thy neighbor"
Mind you, I'm talking rather strictly about the fundies here - the muslims who believe in the reward for their own martyrdom* enough to martyr themselves via homebrew explosives, 911'ing planes, and otherwise sacrificing themselves to kill 'infidels'.
* The reward for martyrdom in islam is eternity in paradise for you and seventy of your closest friends, and the oft-ridiculed 72 virgins. Fundies believe this with the same fervor that creationists believe that 6000 years have passed since the formation of the earth, or that devout catholics believe a dry bit of overprocessed matzo is really the body of christ, or that secularists and atheists believe that water is wet. Please don't use this fact as validation of your religion over islam; use it as a real and tangible reason for educating people and training them in the ways of rational thinking.
Seriously. People need to get over this god *****.

I'm not one for spite, so I won't normally say, "so and so needs shot for what they're doing", or whatever, but if she goes all the way to the convention, it's inevitable that she'll ruin her own finances. I'd love to see the manipulative liar go broke on her own miscognizance and have nothing to show for it.
- empirefalling, on 04/28/2008, -13/+9Obama will be your next Leader, of this there is no doubt. Now is the time to think of what actions you can take to reverse the damage done by Obamas predecessor. If Obama is indeed dedicated to "Change" then he will need your help.

- akatsuki, on 04/28/2008, -0/+3They had a valid reason for a specific instance of hijacking of the party by radical interests. Just not a campaign where both people are in the Democratic fold...
Dean has hinted at changing the system which would be good - they need to weigh the system more for general electability by discounting solidly Dem states where the candidate doesn't matter and weigh swing states much heavier to determine electability with also an eye towards electoral college proportions (e.g. if the state is proportional federally, then that is how Dem delegates should go). Superdelegates should vote based on how it advances the Democratic agenda in their region. (I know these factors are strong Obama points, but this is for after this nomination process anyway).
Basically the system should be set up to create a stronger party every election cycle and to make strong advances.

- DeejayPancake, on 04/28/2008, -2/+0No. It's people like you, me, and the other several hundred users that cannot help ourselves on the internet.
- poopdigger, on 04/28/2008, -2/+2WOOT! Obama is still going to wiN! Snore..
- cafesuada, on 04/28/2008, -2/+6I thought Hillary won Arizona. Then shouldn't the super delegate vote with the popular vote and go with Hillary?
- bphicke, on 04/28/2008, -1/+5The Democratic Party is not very democratic.
- InnerRayg, on 04/28/2008, -1/+4But giving an entire state's population's vote to one candidate certainly is. Guess what bozo, the electoral system is broken no matter which party you're on.
- Norma156, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1Yes.
- bond1963, on 04/28/2008, -0/+0That's only true if Obama wins the state. You should have known that since you posted on digg.

- zephris, on 04/28/2008, -3/+1How many people out there actually know what a superdelegate is??? If you really knew, you wouldn't be jumping up and down...
- adwarereport, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1Actually, I am jumping up and down. I want to know about every new superdelegate who is pledging their support for Obama. Why? Because when there are 39 more, it's over.
- kerowack, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1At this point, we're all very aware of what a superdelegate is, thank you.
- feiniulacht, on 04/28/2008, -7/+1Stupid Democrats, paychecks are for working people, but most the people on welfare are voting for a liberal Democrat, and Obama won't make it to the white house. There are too many white people who know the score, and we are not going to throw our vote away to please a bunch of illegals and low life welfare recipients, who do nothing but lay around and produce more babies who will grow up to be just like their parents. More low liefs for the Sharptons and the Jacksons of the ghetto Seine to speak for because they are told they need these ghetto pimps to stand up for them. Neither Billary or Mama will ever get their traitorous butts into the white house because they have too much baggage and they are untruthful. You can call it racist all you want; I don't have any empathy for freeloaders and fools, so bend over cause here they come. Yohembi baby!
- InnerRayg, on 04/28/2008, -1/+3***** off *****, the only one who denigrates people on welfare is someone born into wealth and who assumes they deserve it.
Go ahead, tell me that the people in my community are not the hardest workers I know, because they have to work every day and night just to make enough to feed their families. Tell me that my parents have not done more work than you ever will to make a nice living for me. Tell me that so I can laugh in yo face idiot.

- mahsah, on 04/28/2008, -0/+2I wish Clinton would concede already so Obama can beat the ***** out of McCain.
Although I personally will be voting for Gravel, especially now that he is on the Libertarian ticket.- Kyan, on 04/28/2008, -0/+2He is? Link?

- davidlow, on 04/28/2008, -1/+1You're voting for Gravel? Why not Ralph Nader?
- chrissku, on 04/28/2008, -0/+3The thing I thing has disappointed me the most in this election would have to be the media. It is really sad how they have see sawed weekly between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. We all know Obama has this nomination won. There is simply no way that the superdelegates will overturn his popular vote and pledged delegate count lead. The only reason why Hillary thinks she has a shot is because our "unbiased" media keeps telling her she does. This whole thing is f'in ridiculous.
- bond1963, on 04/28/2008, -0/+0I wouldn't count on that as a rule. Remember there are many supers that have already committed for Billary even though Obama won in their area/state. And there are supers that haven't commited even though the people in their area have voted a long time ago. Why is that? Because they don't feel like they have to vote in line with the popular vote.
I'm not saying it's right. I'm not saying they won't rubber stamp the popular vote. I'm just saying that it would be a mistake to assume anything at this point.

- seantaylor, on 04/29/2008, -0/+1As Sen. Hillary Clinton has ‘managed’ to take the Pennsylvania state, the Democratic race for nomination is very much alive – and most likely to be decided by superdelegates. Indiana ,Idaho and West Virginia are still to come.
If you’re tired of waiting around for those super delegates to make a decision already, go to LobbyDelegates.com and push them to support Clinton or Obama
If you haven't done so yet, please write a message to each of your state's superdelegates at http://www.lobbydelegates.com
It takes a moment, but what's a few minutes now worth to get Obama in office?!
Sending a note to current Obama supporters lets them know it's appreciated, sending a note to current Clinton supporters can hopefully sway them to change their vote to Obama, and sending a note to the uncommitted folks will hopefully sway them to vote for Obama. It's that easy...
Clinton Supporters too …. !
