people who can do simple math and have basic morals agree that simply placing a very minimal tax on wealthy individuals can result in broad healthcare for those who have no access and can't afford it, which includes predominately people who have jobs and are working but can't afford the ridiculous prices of "republiCONomics" which basically is just a $275 Billion dollar tax break, aka welfare, for wealthy lard-asses not only is it morally the right thing to do but it also saves money in the long run... so repugnants don't have a single leg to stand on... you idiots are wrong on all counts... but that's just par for the course isn't it congratulations... you're a douchebag... but we already knew that didn't we... i-load "the country cannot afford all this Medicaid... it is necessary to dump the Medicaid as it now stands. So we can give billions to wealthy lard-asses such as Trump... All hail wealthy lard ass liars such as the Trump-Turd

Wall Street Journal Delivers Blistering Trump Editorial He clings to wiretapping story 'like a drunk to an empty gin bottle' By Newser Editors, Newser Staff Posted Mar 22, 2017 8:45 AM CDT newser.com (NEWSER) – President Trump is known to bristle at criticism. Plus, he happens to be a teetotaler. Which makes a scathing new editorial in the Wall Street Journal likely to be one of his least favorite bits of presidential commentary yet. In the piece, the editors say Trump is seriously damaging his own presidency "with his seemingly endless stream of exaggerations, evidence-free accusations, implausible denials and other falsehoods." As a prime example, it points to his allegation that former President Obama wiretapped him, complaining that Trump "clings to his assertion like a drunk to an empty gin bottle," despite all evidence to the contrary. The problem is one of credibility, the editors say. What happens when Trump tweets about something serious and real, say a missile strike by North Korea? It was one thing when he was a candidate and his hyperbole was largely forgiven, but as president he "needs support beyond the Breitbart cheering section that will excuse anything." Instead of a week dominated by headlines about his Supreme Court nominee or the ObamaCare alternative, news that Trump has been repudiated by his own FBI chief has been the big story. Trump's approval rating is now dismally low, and while he may dismiss that as "fake news," the WSJ says he'd better be careful: "*If he doesn’t show more respect for the truth most Americans may conclude he’s a fake President.*" Click for the full editorial.
