The second part of my statement was that putting a price on the fossil fuels was the best way way to address the externality.

This is you when it comes to the credibility you have on what is and isn't nonsense:
All the allegations against The Trump Thing are speculation, even the myriad times it's been successfully sued civilly and been fined criminally, and even though it admitted to being a serial sexual assaulter.

All the allegations against Hillary Clinton are true even though she's never been charged criminally or sued civilly.

I think we know who's the one peddling nonsense, and it's you, you Trumptard Retard.

Blah,blah, blah.  LOL.  If anyone has been triggered here tonight, it is you.  Hill shill fluffer.  LOL

[136 or 142]

Burning fossil fuels also helps us live our day-to-day lives in relative comfort.  If you pit the benefits against the costs, fossil fuels benefit us far more that whatever costs may accrue.

If that's the case then the externality will be priced at zero.

However, since you're a mindless retard who falls for the lies of the fossil fuel industry, I highly doubt you've looked into this, so your comment here should be regarded as being as worthless as virtually all your comments.

I'm not the one who responded to a comment by saying "it's not your place here to comment."  I don't see how anybody can be more triggered than that.

No comments on this forum other than Donald Noory's are as worthless are yours, Hill shill.

Let's do it the democratic way.  Who here thinks 136 or 142 is being especially tedious tonight?  I agree that he is.  That is two votes to one.  This poll will stay open for comments until the bottom of the hour.

I AGREE
but it might be my fault because I discovered today and grilled him all day on the topic that they are allowed to have sex with animals
in Canada /sans penetration/ as ruled by Canadian Highest Court.

Also I come to this conclusion:

OK I watched it ,yes has a good mood to it

P.S. your 'name' 136 or 142 is difficult to type,..I did this:
1+3+6=10=>1 ... 1+4+2=7 ==> 1 or 7 ===>> 1or7 much easier ,lol

?? hey 1or7 considering name change anytime soon ?? ,lol

That's your opinion.  But your opinions are nonsense, Trumptard Retard.

Well you can comment but you are a foreigner that appears to be hostile to our system of government so I take any comments you make with a certain bias.

Yep, many people are opting out of health care altogether since Obamacare went into place.  Who can afford it?  Better to pay office visits out-of-pocket and have some catastrophic health care coverage.  For now the fine is an acceptable alternative than actually paying huge insurance premiums.

I have to wonder where things like check-ups, prescriptions for chronic conditions and other forms of preventative care rank in importance to most people who opt out of health insurance? More or less important than spending on other expenses like pricey cell phone plans, second (or third) cars and other relative luxuries.

People tend to ignore healthcare until their health deteriorates enough to get their attention. This is why, for example, most Type 2 diabetics have the disease for years or decades before it is detected or treated. Likewise for high blood pressure. Then, finally, they start to care.

This attitude is one of the things that drives up costs for everyone and makes insurance so expensive.

Hold on. You've got to give credit where credit is due. He got a little fired up tonight, but for him, the Rabbit did very well. He actually had a reasonable conversation with us tonight. Okay, a little jumpy, but he was keeping his cool most of the time. Just because we didn't always agree doesn't mean he's acting like Ricky on a bender after Lucy kicked him out again.

I can't speak to 136 because, as usual, I never read any of the crap he posts.

[21st Century Man]

I found this pic of 136. lol.  So how's it like working with Ron, man?  How long does it take for him to get it up these days?

[theONE]

You:

hey 1or7 /or 1+7=8/ you are repeating the same shtick, -it's boring- get something new,..like shaking canadian maple leaf for example

[Lt.Uhura]

The fact that they let the insurance companies write the plan was absurd. Of course they were going to gouge us, be it the people, the employers or the Feds.

You hit on prevention which is so extremely over-looked in most allopathic healthcare (regular healthcare, as most know it). They don't want to do that for several reasons. As much as I hate to say this, we've all heard many of the reasons on C2C with the Snoore. His shows might suck but some of those guests do offer hints as to things we should be doing to take care of ourselves. My personal philosophy is that I am responsible for my health 1st and foremost. My doctor, at best, is only 2nd. Sometimes I think not having health insurance has been a blessing for me because I've learned how to take care of myself and don't take all those drugs that so many older adults I know are messed up on.

We have a free AARP healthfare every year that I make a point of attending. Supposedly, it's the largest one in the country. (Don't know if it's true.) They are very lax as to whom they allow in with the idea that the more they service, the better. That's when I get all kinds of free tests. Once I get the results, I then study them a bit more online. My health is actually pretty good but there are a few things I know to watch out for and tend to to keep things under control. But, like I said, I'm the one responsible for my health, not another entity.

Agreed.  Many Americans treat their health like their car.  They run it it the ground and drop it off to be repaired as cheaply and quickly as possible. Providing health care that focuses on prevention would be a huge culture change. My grandparents (from the Great Depression) were adept at taking care of themselves.  My grandmother made and regularly used herbal tinctures before resorting to western medicine.

Ron Jeremy? The porn actor?

You sure seem to know a lot about pornography.

[21st Century Man]

136,  I'm just giving you a hard time.  It is all in fun.  You're a Hill shill but you're ok.  Oh by the way, you lost the poll, 3 votes to 1.  Some nights can be rough around here so don't take it so HARD! lol.

[21st Century Man]

If you know who he is then so do you. Don't play innocent with me.

If single-payer is the ultimate answer, I can't say I have an issue. I do have an issue how the ACA was jammed down our throats without debate - and now as the facts come out - designed to fail to force a single payer system.

You can't just rip apart what had been about 20% of our economy overnight and expect it to be smooth. And if you don't think insurance company lobbyists were involved in crafting parts of teh ACA I think you are mistaken.

If it ends up being like the VA system it will not be the ultimate answer.

I'm a vet and I refuse to use the VA system.

As I said, the insurance lobbyists are the root of the problem, imo.

LOL.  Of course you are right, Astrid.  It has got to be a tiresome job being paid to post on this forum so I'll cut him some slack.

I totally agree with you here, Uhura.  People need to take better care of themselves and they should be rewarded for such behavior.

[136 or 142]

It's hard not to know the name.  I have no idea what a fluffer is though.

[Donald Noory]

I don't know what the answer is but I think it would be best if the government got out of the health care business altogether.

Yeah because all those seniors are just dying to get rid of Medicare. They all just hate it. And the free market healthcare system has worked so well for the rest of us. Damn, you're one stupid fuckin shit-for-brains redneck.

He's an anal sex lovin' Christian.

I'll let you look that one up.

It's a defensible position as long as the person promoting it is consistent.  Just don't try to sugarcoat it but say straight up "It's not my concern whether you live or die."

Of course, there are still difficulties with such a position:  I want to use all the fossil fuels I want, but you have to bear any of the cost from any  illnesses you may get as a result of my or other third party burning of those fossil fuels.

[136 or 142]

I'll let you look that one up.

You mistake my comment for me writing that I care what it is.

[Donald Noory]

I'll let you look that one up.

Is that word in the Bible?
