since insurance deals with risk...

...then why do we have health insurance, since needing health care is inevitable?



i can understand why we have auto insurance, since getting into a vehicle accident which injures someone is not inevitable. still, it's nice to know that the driver who just cut me off and put me into the telephone pole has basic 30/60 coverage to cover the bill on my broken leg and whiplash.

i can understand why we have homeowner's insurance, since my grow room burning down my house is not inevitable. still, it's nice to know that everything in my house can be replaced if the shoddy, decades old wiring in my house decides to go on the fritz when i'm not here to extinguish it.



but health insurance is different. the fact is that every single one of us will need health care at some point in our lives, and many of us will need a lot of it.

so why handle the inevitable with actuarial tables, instead of just treating it like the inevitability that it truly is?

Your proctologist bill is long overdue. I realize the head extraction was unsuccessful, but you really should pay the bill.

it's a catch 22.
he didnt pay the bill, so he cant get better.

he will get some free Group Therapy when he discovers that San Jose cops dont turn a blind eye to dope selling.

or when the local gangs decide he is cutting into their territory.

on the real bucky. keep it on the DownLow. California isnt Oregon.

I don't know. Is he? I thought he was a Democrat strategist with a familiarity of Social-Democratic perspectives.
What is your version of communism? Where is the line drawn in your eyes?
Van Jones described himself as a communist, not I, are you inferring he can't be a democrat strategist while being a communist?

And isn't my definition of communism irrelevant?

I found some information suggesting he was into communist ideas post-1992.
Then he smartened up...
or did he ? :?:

Quite possibly, but I still don't know what it is. :confused: This is not a secret message.

how do you even manage to tie your shoes in the morning?
mittens is ONE republican, who happened to be governor of the most left leaning state in the union.

mittens got a lot of shit form MOST republicans, and had very little non-mormon support in his bid for the presidency.

a shit candidate with shit ideas got shit on by the republican voters, after being propped up by the neocon "leadership" to try and appeal to democrats.

and you act like defeating this pathetic dullard was a great victory.

the neocons knew their time was short after bush fucked everything up, so they propped their scarecrow up in the corner and let you whack at him until your BOOOSH ragetears all dried up.

the electorate is about 20% leftist jingoists who would vote for the evil galactic overlord Xenu if the dems put a D behind his name

another 20% right wing fanatics who would vote for the same galactic overlord if their party bosses pinned an R to his tunic

another 20% thinking people who vote for policies not puppets

and the last 40% are dipshits who vote whichever way they are told.

the dipshit electorate is easily swayed by the lefties near total control over the press, but every now and again the clarion voice of truth breaks through the noise. Barry Seotoro is NOT one of those times.

there is an enormous space between what you believe to be true and what reality dictates to be true.
you failed to answer the question, and yes, Van Jones is an admitted marxist (he is NOT a communist, he is a socialist member of the socialist party which is deceptively named "The Communist Party")

there is a huge gulf between words which have purpose, and the words which come from YOU.

In 1992, while still a law student at Yale, Jones participated as a volunteer legal monitor for a protest of the Rodney King verdict in San Francisco. He and many other participants in the protest were arrested. The district attorney later dropped the charges against Jones. The arrested protesters, including Jones, won a small legal settlement. Jones later said that "the incident deepened my disaffection with the system and accelerated my political radicalization."[SUP][18][/SUP] In October 2005 Jones said he was "a rowdy nationalist"[SUP][15][/SUP] before the King verdict was announced, but that by August of that year (1992) he was a communist
