    and it’s a shame that Obama has forgotten which party he supposedly “belongs” to.

    yes, it’s very sad when only the sorta well-off and above can afford copays, deductibles, and the like. Much care is being postponed, and perhaps with dire consequences. “Excess”. What is that in real terms? No psychotherapy for PTSD? A festering tooth? Not able to purchase medication because the car broke down again? Only in Amurka.

    2013-04-22 13:50:45View | Delete

    And we don’t have to purchase Nestle products! I have avoided them for years, with only a rare Baby Ruth candy bar once every couple of months.

    We have choices. Make them smart ones!

    bluevistas commented on the blog post Perhaps the Best Argument Yet Against the Filibuster

    2013-04-18 08:48:04View | Delete

    dysfunctional House, Senate, WH, and Court (system)

    Harry Reid is a scared weakling.

    And we will continue to resist the takeover by the wealthy and corporations.

    2013-04-14 18:39:46View | Delete

    my sentiments exactly.

    I don’t waste my time, energy, or effort on the hopelessly deluded.

    2013-04-05 10:22:43View | Delete

    slick, on the part of Peabody. Tying health care to employment is the wrong way to go, always was.

    We need a better Medicare for All.

    bluevistas commented on the blog post Three Reasons the GOP Ironically Remains the Best Hope for Protecting Social Security

    2013-03-18 16:23:52View | Delete

    cutting military funding is cutting funds to war corporations and their investors.

    bluevistas commented on the diary post Robert Samuelson: “What Frustrates Constructive Debate is Muddled Pundit Opinion” by Dean Baker.

    2013-03-18 07:25:26View | Delete

    “If only President Obama could show some leadership and try to educate people like Robert Samuelson.”

    Thing is though, Obama subscribes to the “New Democrat” worldview in which privatization of the commons is desired. So, Obama won’t be educating anyone otherwise.

    2013-03-12 07:34:29View | Delete

    Obama and his “New Democrats”, and the Blue Dogs don’t value what traditional Democrats value. They’re DINOs.

    bluevistas commented on the blog post Rev. Irene Monroe: Was Marco McMillian killed in Mississippi because he was black or gay?

    2013-03-07 08:23:47View | Delete

    maybe it’s “both”, not “either/or”?

    just turns my stomach.

    the already-wealthy double down on those with less.

    bluevistas commented on the blog post Lowering Medicare Age Offers Possible Solution For Healthcare Spending

    2013-02-28 09:31:30View | Delete

    Sadly, Obama and the corporate whores won’t let people out of the private for-profit insurance system that enriches the administrators, not the practitioners!

    2013-02-28 09:22:02View | Delete

    Why? Because Obama wants it.

    Glad I voted for Jill Stein!

    2013-02-18 07:37:44View | Delete

    I noticed that NPR turned right-ward about 5-8 years ago. More corporate ads. That’s when they lost me.

    bluevistas commented on the blog post Slow Health Care Spending has Already Substantially Reduced the Deficit

    2013-02-06 13:06:54View | Delete

    I hope that people are getting the care that they need and not delaying it or being unable to afford co-pays/deductibles etc. There’s the financial side and the patient side. Plus practitioners’ concerns too.

    leave the real counseling to the professionals.

    support is fine, but not to present oneself as something they are not.
