Some 58 percent of respondents support replacing ObamaCare with a universal healthcare system, while 37 percent oppose that plan. A majority — 51 percent — also supports simply repealing the Affordable Care Act, while 45 percent oppose the idea. Americans were divided over the idea of leaving ObamaCare as is: 49 percent oppose the idea, and 48 percent support it. The three scenarios were meant to correspond to the proposals of the three presidential candidates. Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders is in support of a single-payer, federally administered plan. Presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump has called for the repeal of the Affordable Care Act, and Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton has said the law will stay in place. The poll was conducted from May 6 to 8 among 1,549 adults across the country. The margin of error is 3 percentage points.

To: Willie Green (#0) (Edited) Some 58 percent of Americans support universal healthcare, Hell, Willie, this comes as no surprise. Research shows that 45 percent of Americans pay no federal income tax. So that takes care of the largest portion. The next 12 percent are Bernie Sanders supporters. While the remaining one percent are Paultards. So, there is your 58 percent accounted for. Gatlin  posted on  2016-05-16   12:42:14 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #21. To: Gatlin, GrandIsland (#1) Some 58 percent of Americans support universal healthcare, Trump supports it too. Donald Trump stands by universal health care despite attacks Donald Trump is remaining firm on a sticking point for many Republican voters — government-funded health care for all. One of his top rivals for the Republican presidential nomination, Texas Senator Ted Cruz, has hit Trump hard on this issue in recent weeks. Cruz’s campaign has dubbed Trump’s plan “Trumpcare” and likened it to “Hillarycare” and “Obamacare.” Last week, a super PAC supporting Cruz ran an attack ad on the subject in Iowa. But Trump isn’t backing down. article continues after advertisement “We do need health care for all people,” Trump said at a rally here this week. “What are we gonna do, let people die in the street?” Trump has said he doesn’t support Obamacare but does believe the government should pay for health insurance for all. “I wanna get rid of Obamacare. I want to get you something good,” he said at the rally. He didn’t offer specifics. Paultards. Contrast Trump's position with Dr. Ron Paul's : Health Care The current system is most definitely broken, and it must eventually be abolished if we want to regain both our health and our freedom. But Obamacare is the worst possible answer. All it does is perpetuate a flawed system by forcing everyone to become a client of insurance companies, even those who don’t want to or need to participate. Why should anyone be forced to subsidize the medical care of others? Very few individuals would personally assault their neighbors at gunpoint and steal thousands of dollars to pay for their own medical needs. How could any freedom loving person agree to delegate such criminal acts to the government by supporting a compulsory health insurance system? There is only one solution that will lead to true health and true freedom: making health care more affordable. Ron Paul believes that only true free market competition will put pressure on the providers and force them to lower their costs to remain in business. Additionally, Ron Paul wants to change the tax code to allow individual Americans to fully deduct all health care costs from their taxes.

To: Deckard, GrandIsland (#21) I really don't GAS what that "has been" who could get only one bill passed in all his time in Congress has to say. As for Trump, I will wait to see his detailed plans AFTER he is IN office, and then I will comment on that. Gatlin  posted on  2016-05-17   9:34:51 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #35. To: Gatlin (#34) I really don't GAS Really? Then why the clinical obsession? The fact remains - you make shit up about Ron Paul all the time. Trump has said he doesn’t support Obamacare but does believe the government should pay for health insurance for all. “I wanna get rid of Obamacare. I want to get you something good,” he said at the rally. He didn’t offer specifics. Ron Paul disagrees. You support Trump, therefore you support his plan for universal health care. I guess it's socialism only when Obama does it. Deckard  posted on  2016-05-17   10:19:33 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #37. To: Deckard (#35) I really don't GAS Really?

To: Gatlin (#29) Yes, it is extremely amusing for me to consider Hillary and Ron are both comfortable with same-sex marriage and both agree that same-sex partners should receive benefits Same-sex marriage Asked his opinion on same-sex marriage in October 2011, Paul expressed his support for marriage privatization by replying, "Biblically and historically, the government was very uninvolved in marriage. I like that. I don't know why we should register our marriage to the federal government. I think it's a sacrament." In the same interview, when asked whether he would vote for or against a state constitutional amendment like California's Proposition 8, he said, 'Well, I believe marriage is between one man and one woman. LGBT rights On the specific issue of LGBT rights, Paul stated that, “You have to remember, rights don't come in groups we shouldn't have 'gay rights'; rights come as individuals, and we wouldn't have this major debate going on. It would be behavior that would count, not what person belongs to what group.” Deckard  posted on  2016-05-17   12:38:57 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #46.

To: Gatlin (#46) (Edited) That’s the place where ANYONE can EDIT ALL entries, where they can easily undermine facts through malice or ignorance … uh, is that correct? You fucking weasel - you wouldn't know a fact if it bit you on the ass. Ron Paul bases his positions on gay marriage on the Constitution. In 2004, Ron Paul spoke in support of the Defense of Marriage Act, passed in 1996. This act allows a state to decline to recognize gay marriage or same-sex marriages performed in other states or countries, although a state will usually recognize legal marriages performed outside of its own jurisdiction. The Defense of Marriage Act also prohibits the U.S. government from recognizing same-sex marriages, even if a state recognizes the marriage. Paul co-sponsored the Marriage Protection Act, which would have barred federal judges from hearing cases pertaining to the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act. In 2004 and 2006, Paul voted against amending the US Constitution to define marriage as between one man and one woman. though he does not support allowing gay and lesbian couples to wed. He saw the amendment as a usurpation of the states’ authority. “Mr. Speaker, while I oppose federal efforts to redefine marriage as something other than a union between one man and one woman, I do not believe a constitutional amendment is either a necessary or proper way to defend marriage,” he said in 2006. Paul said he supports the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), a law that bars federal recognition of same-sex marriages and allows the states to do the same. “If I were in Congress in 1996, I would have voted for the Defense of Marriage Act, which used Congress’ constitutional authority to define what official state documents other states have to recognize under the Full Faith and Credit Clause, to ensure that no state would be forced to recognize a same-sex marriage license issued in another state,” he said in 2006. Paul’s statement on the amendment and DOMA was placed in the Congressional Record in 2006 and the same statement had been placed there in 2004. Paul’s opposition to queer community goals dates to at least 1980, when he was among a group of Washington legislators introducing anti-gay legislation. Paul’s bill, the Family Protection Act, barred the federal government from funding “any organization which presents male or female homosexuality as an acceptable alternative life style or which suggests that it can be an acceptable life style.” ******* Meanwhile - Trump tells Catlin Jenner (and presumably ALL transgenders) that they are free to use ANY bathroom they like in any of his buildings. And - THAT is the candidate that YOU support. Deckard  posted on  2016-05-17   14:14:15 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #53. To: Deckard (#47) Ron Paul spoke in support of the Defense of Marriage Act ... Yea he did. The Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) (Pub.L. 104–199, 110 Stat. 2419, enacted September 21, 1996, 1 U.S.C. § 7 and 28 U.S.C. § 1738C) is a United States federal law that, prior to being ruled unconstitutional, defined marriage for federal purposes as the union of one man and one woman, and allowed states to refuse to recognize same-sex marriages granted under the laws of other states. Ron Paul was once again speaking out of both sides of his ass. He is alleged to be a BIG proponent of states rights ... yet he denied states the right of refusal. Typical Paultard ... being two-faced. Gatlin  posted on  2016-05-18   10:47:41 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #54. To: Deckard (#53) If Ron Paul defended the Defense of Marriage Act, as he did … then why did he oppose the Federal Marriage Amendment? The Federal Marriage Amendment (FMA) (also referred to by proponents as the Marriage Protection Amendment) is a proposed amendment to the United States Constitution which would define marriage in the United States as a union of one man and one woman. The FMA would also prevent judicial extension of marriage rights to same-sex or other unmarried heterosexual couples. He doesn’t define marriage as the union of one man and one woman and he is in favor of marriage rights to same-sex couples? Obviously not. Ergo, he is for same-sex marriage. That is the only logical deduction that can come form his action. Action always speaks louder than words … Est-ce bien exact?
