On what do you base this claim?

I don't use inflammatory rhetoric.

I don't use personal insults.

I don't post misinformation.

And I try to make all of my posts relevant to an issue instead of just a petty pissing match like this is turning into.

So I am going to drop it. I don't want to sink to your level.

You have an obvious lack of self-awareness.

That isn't a "personal insult". That is a studied and valid observation of your short time here.

The Veterans Administration has provided me with excellent, free healthcare, eye care and dental despite the poor quality and wait times reported in other areas of the country.



And who funds the Veterans Administration? Taxpayers, perhaps?

In the end, taxpayers fund everything....even privately purchased healthcare insurance plans.

Oh? Maybe you should fill in randye then. Kind of takes the wind out of whatever he was trying to hype.

But really, that's such a bogus comment. How are taxpayers who are not privy to private healthcare insurance plans able to benefit from them? Simple, they don't.

Nay, nay, taxpayers fund PART of the Federal budget (and the rascals borrow the rest). I give you, DATA, and ask Democrats, Republicans, Independents, (and everyone else), how this makes you feel. Bullish? Nauseous? Dizzy?

My insurance is through my employer. What is your point?

The fact that I am fortunate enough to have insurance does not mean that I don't see the problem with the rest of the population. In fact this is a very personal issue with me because I have a good friend whose life was destroyed because unaffordable health care.

The cost of employer provided health care is factored in to the cost of the product made or the service rendered by the employer. Taxpayers buy the product or service, thereby paying for the insurance provided by that employer.

Taxpayers pay for everything in the end.
