So what's your fix? Everyone agree there's a problem. Pointing at the problem (too many sick people in red states...) doesn't fix it. {nm} BSmurf Jul 28, 08:36

I like your suggestion.....keep obamacare, keep mandates, keep fines, keep rising premiums, keep rising deductables, keep rising copays {nm} TJNFL1 Jul 28, 09:05

Then you should after the Insurance companies, drug companies and their middlemen that keep raising prices. Antibody Jul 28, 09:26

Raising prices because they can. Profit margins. Not cool. More competition needed, not less insurance companies or more tax subsidies. {nm} TJNFL1 Jul 28, 11:12

tj i dont think b ever suggested that. putting words in peoples mouth? {nm} islander Jul 28, 09:28

Sorry Islander and BSmurf. His "red state" comment lead me to assume pro-Obamacare. As if blue states don't have any sick people. {nm} TJNFL1 Jul 28, 12:42

Not at all, sir. I referenced "red states" because that was what was specifically mentioned in your article you linked. Asking you for your BSmurf Jul 28, 14:51

If that is the reason for your statement, then my apology stands. Ending ACA subsidies will probably be the next step taken. {nm} TJNFL1 Jul 30, 12:10

well, not yet. let us know if they actually go through with it. and what will the economic and enviromental impact be with all the islander Jul 27, 06:18

Ya, better that they build the plant in some other country so they can have the jobs and tax revenue to improve their communities. {nm} TJNFL1 Jul 27, 07:36

operative word being "Conn" -- it will cost the state $3b in subsidies ($230k for every worker hired) slipping jimmy Jul 27, 11:24

how about we treat workers at least as well as we treat billionaiires {nm} islander Jul 27, 07:44

Don't know many who are forced to work, maybe in some correctional facility. Most apply, interview, and agree to gainful employment. {nm} TJNFL1 Jul 27, 08:03

Most settle for what they can get because so few are willing to pay decent wages for the work demanded. {nm} DTravel Jul 27, 10:43

So if we take these jobs away, what are they left with? Unemployment? Food Stamps? Street corner soliciting? {nm} TJNFL1 Jul 28, 08:14

UI only pays part of what you were making before and only for a limited time. DTravel Jul 28, 12:43

So taking one of these 50,000 jobs might be better. {nm} TJNFL1 Jul 28, 13:29

Only if it pays enough keep one from starving on the streets, which is not a given anymore. {nm} DTravel Jul 28, 14:47
