Obama care - bend over and take it

So, the supreme court has given the go ahead to Obamacare, claiming it comes under the governments right to tax. I find this interpretation very strange. When people think of a "tax" it is usually the government directly taking money from you in some form or other for services it provides. This is NOT the case with Obamacare.

Lets get something straight right away, this is NOT A PUBLIC HEALTH PLAN!!! In fact, there is no public option at all, that provision was struck out of the bill, thanks to the insurance industry.

How this works is the government forces people to buy health care from private corporations, refusal to do so gets you fined. Of COURSE welfare people get a pass, as guess what? They ALREADY get free health care, paid for by working people. Most middle class people will be ok, as they already have health insurance. Illegals, ahahahahahaha, good luck finding out where they live to send them the fine!
Correction - I have since found out illegals are exempt!!!
The people who are REALLY going to get a screw job off of this are the low income working class U.S. citizen. It's almost impossible for limo libs like Obama to picture this, even middle class libs don't or won't see them but yes Virginia, there IS a subclass of people who WORK for a living, get shit pay, and live hand to mouth. They didn't wake up and say, "hey, health care, fuck that, I don't want it!" The FACT is they can't afford it, their peanut paychecks barley cover rent, auto insurance, food, utility bills, etc. So now you tell these people they are going to have to shit out $50-$100 a week extra for health care? It won't work, all that will happen is the unemployed numbers will go up as these people say fuck it and quit. Why work at all if the government is forcing so much money from you you can't pay all your bills?

I just love the whole "tax" angle the moronic Supreme court let this slide under. As we have the best congress money can buy it will only be a short time before the 1%'er corporations and the politicians get together to decide what the next "service" they will mandate the public buys.

No doubt they will mandate you buy the dildo they are going to assrape you with.

Who should get welfare?

There is an eternal argument about welfare. The most common is why pay people to not work; that is applied to poor people. Advocates of this type of welfare argue, "what about corporate welfare"?

It used to be most people weren't aware of corporate welfare, but now they are. Corporate welfare had a LOT to do with the occupy wall st movement. They didn't express that well, but if you dug down corporate welfare was at the heart of the resentment felt by many of them.

There are many types of Corporate welfare, I don't even begin to know them all. I'll provide a partial list here, anyone reading feel free to comment if you think I left anything out.

• Non Profit Status - This isn't even considered corporate welfare but if you think about it it is.
  
  
  • Colleges
    
    You have Universities that have jacked up tuition way beyond the inflation rate year after year after year yet pay no taxes on huge volumes of land they are squatting on.
    
    
  • Churches
    
    
  • Charities
    
    If you can pay six and seven digit salaries to your ceo you can pay your damn taxes too.
    
    
  • This kind of speaks for itself. The catholic church isn't generating a profit? Really?
    
    
• Allowing corporate use of public lands
  
  Typically government allows corporations to use public lands for a cost far less than they would have to pay a public sector land owner. Some examples are:
  
  
  • Logging
    
    
  • Grazing
    
    
  • Mining
    
    
  • Oil and gas
  
  
  There is a LOT of debate on this issue, but what should NOT be up for debate is that if corporations are going to lease PUBLIC land the very LEAST that should be required is they pay market rate for it. Currently they are damaging public resources while profiteering at the taxpayers expense.
  
  
• Bailouts of banks and insurance companies
  
  Taxpayer funded government bailouts of "too big to fail" corporations has angered many people, big corporations get a helping hand up while peoples houses get repossessed in the never ending stagnant, shitty economy.
  
  
• Corporate tax breaks
  
  One law for you, another for them.

I'm with conservatives when they say welfare for poor people needs to be tightly regulated. It should NOT be doling out government money for life, and recipients should not be allowed to use that money to buy luxury items, booze, or drugs. In Massachusetts welfare people get an "EBT" card, which they can cash out at any ATM. This allows them to buy crack, hookers, or anything else they want off the taxpayers dime.

So when it comes to who should get welfare, I don't think corporations should get ANY. They are a BUSINESS and in a REAL capitalist system need to stand or fall on their own.

I wouldn't eliminate welfare for poor people, but it should be put back to the helping hand up it was originally intended to be, and not be an eternal payout to those who won't work.
