Baby booner generation was the anti-establishment generation. What Happened?

Eliminate insurance because it is the main cause of health care being so expensive. When government regulates and guarantees profitable prices through plans as Medicaid, Medicare and AIDS Drug Assistance Program non medical politicians create plans that limit eligibility for citizens who need the plan and eligibility for medical caregivers to be reimbursed while assuring the bulk of our designated federal funds goes to those who own for profit institutions (who make large political donations for these eligibility rules that prevent paying out money for intended causes). This plans guarantee prices (ie. AIDS drug that costs $40 a month鈥檚 supply to produce may be sold to Africa for $80 a month supply, sold to Canada for $350, and because ADAP secured the price of $950 per infected person per month any one not eligible for ADAP must pay the high price because pharmaceutical Co鈥檚 is in business to make money and will not sell for less than what insurance plans will pay.)

Health insurance ruins supply and demand. Since 1988 many hospitals are for-profit now, originally they had to turn a profit for the owners to earn money. In 1994, during the Clinton administration, for profit hospitals were given the approval to receive federal funding, so now 20 - 60 million dollars goes to any given for profit institution in the US that show debt= owners pay themselves and non-medical CEO鈥檚 4 million annually plus 20% tax free bonus plus unlimited healthcare and other benefit packages and they are 20 鈥?60 million dollars in debt and eligible for our federal tax funding while many middle class tax paying citizens must go without basic health care and prevention intervention.


The Clinton-Bush administrations, first baby boomers to be Presidents have led administrations that give government the power to redistribute working class earnings through taxes that means this class supports the rich and the poor, the administrations that made congress and our president above common FICA taxes, Medicare and Social Security by deeming tax payers will just pay all their unlimited health care out of pocket; there are rules for everything (Remember the song "Signs"? There is a freakin rule and sign for everything. Our infrastructure/highways is falling apart and the geniuses in office giving themselves annual raises (that will become their pension at our expense) far exceeding the working class increases want to sell our highways to our enemies in other nations and/or ticket every driver for what ever reason they feel like (Va. A speeding ticket is $3000. a sum that will ruin many families- but if a politician gets caught he/she will most like get off Scot-free- couldn鈥檛 congress stop giving themselves raises and maybe let our tax money be used in a better way such as repairing our highways?)

Congressmen salaries begin at 162,000. a year plus unlimited healthcare 2/3rs their pay for the rest of their life. Considering just the base pay (not raises or previous benefits such as first ladies salary for rest of their life- double dipping if one held both positions)

$162,000 x 2/3rd pension plan only = $107,989.00 x 506 reps in office = $54,642,535.20 annually for reps no longer working part-time as public servants. Add this to the ones actively in office and this number more than triples to annuals costs to the American people. Personal greed of those in office does impact working class people unable to pay for their own healthcare because of legislation made by these representatives. This dies not include the salary of the President that raised to $400,000 annually/$300,000 retirement during Clintons term.

That was all marketing hype.

They got old and sick and their parents were dead and they hadn't saved so they looked towards Government I.E. us to pay for their crap. They were the most spoiled Generation in US history, I for 1 am glad many of them are dying because they were always Based on age rude to me. Greatest rude spoiled now gov. dependent generation in US history and they can not die fast enough as far as I am concerned.

Stopping congressional raises wouldn't be enough to repair the highways. Legislator pay is a tiny, tiny part of the national expenditure.

And, honestly, I don't think they're overpaid.

In addition, your statement about them getting 2/3rd of their salary for the rest of their life is totally untrue. If you have to lie to make your point, that makes me believe your point isn't worth believing.

They grew up .

You th are always anti-establishment until they inherit the "esablishment"

When the vietnam war ended and they knew they werent going to get killed(and some came back from canada)they went back to the good ole american way of doing things,hypocritically,that is.america is a nation of hypocrites,they say one thing,and do another.
