Medicare reform = cuts to benefits
Social Security reform= cuts to benefits

I want to smash things - it is like some kind of widget that magically fixes everything.

But, the problem is that they get away with it, that people are large are so simple minded and childish to thing that big problems can be fixed with a one word throw away line.

People have access to buy fancy sport cars, the reality of doing so, though...

Those are just the facts of my life.

I live in a very, very conservative area. When asked how I could've voted for Obama twice I just reply that in my life Republican lies have been worse for me than Democrat lies.

I then, if pressed, use facts like union breakups, rising deficit, less choice and access to basic necessities, the wars that have been started and the complete financial meltdown. There is plenty of ammunition.

They still look at me like I'm crazy.

How you get there or whether you can afford it, that's entirely your business.

I couldn't possibly afford to buy one, which Repukes would no doubt characterize as my "choice. "

Chaffetz said poor people need to choose between "iPhone or health care".

Democrats, liberals and progressives say that both are pretty much a necessity and that government should ensure basic health care for all in a civilized country. A phone / pocket computer is a necessity of modern life, especially working life and for people who have friends and family (i.e. 99.99% of us).

These days with the internet it is either a home computer & land line combination or a pocket computer with a phone app. Either way, all-in costs are comparable. If you can only afford one combo, most people will opt for the pocket computer.

What about next month Jason?

They never REALLY understand the long weary haul of grinding poverty.

In this case it turns out to be the freedom to die because you can't afford medical care.

I have access to them , but I don't have $100.00 for a one person steak dinner.
