Sunday Morning Talk Shows.

After watching the SMTS I have once again started outmy day by shaking my head.
I know that I tend to repeat myself but ;

Canadians don't go bankrupt trying to pay medical bills.
- A family of 4 has medical coverage for about $250.00 per month.
- They have zero communicat­ion with the government on healthcare coverage.
- Their houses have held their value in most places. Some have even increased
- None of banks has had to be bailed out. Because of regulation­s.

Let me throw this out there.

-1% national sales tax fixes Medicare, Medicaid and SS.
- Come on. You know the jobs aren't coming back. You cut the tax loopholes and subsidies, end the Bush tax cuts and pour the money into a works program employing millions in rebuilding the US infrastruc­ture.
- End the wars and shut down foreign bases and take the savings and apply them to the debt.
- Bring in universal healthcare and let whoever else wants to continue to buy inflated health coverage,do so. Give them a voucher equal to what it costs to cover a family under the new health care plan. Give the public a choice.

This is all the President has to outline in a jobs bill. Will he? NO!  He might lose some donationd and the Presidency.  Why can't we ever get a leader who puts the general welfare of the public first ?
