Rick Perry says Texans LIKE being uninsured!

[RickBean]

Hey, guys from Texas, tell me,. are u really like being uninsured?
Well, i thought that Perry is little bit smarter, huh.
Appearing in the Granite State ahead of a potential 2016 bid for president, Perry told the New Hampshire Journal that Texans like their lack of health care quite well, thank you very much — and please serve that with a side of freedom fries.
The largest cuts to public education since World War II i think it's one of the many reasons why you shouldn't vote for him anymore!

Who cares what Rick Perry has to say? He's no longer the governor and will never become President.

I happen to like being insured and hope in 2018 the ACA doesn't result in my insurance costing me more due to higher premiums/max out of pocket increases as I work for a self-insured employer.

Rick Perry is an idiot. Never liked him.

 

[zanejohnson]

he's the most pompous douchelord of all of Texas.


which makes Texas suck so much worse because like 3 of the 4 million men that make up the DFW metroplex try their "damndest," to aspire to be like him....


he's like THE conservative Texas "good ole boy," idol.

Had he lost his smartification glasses when he said that?

... They did not want a large government program forcing everyone to purchase insurance."

Oh look... yet another liberal lie article title that does not come close to portraying the truth about a republican. I'm so surprised!
It's as if the Salon knows liberals are too lazy to read all the way to the end of the article to get to the truth... even though the article is only 3 sentences long. LOL

When I went to the link I felt like I was looking at the magazine rack by the checkout counter in Walmart.

Kind of like Time Warner's people like high cost low speed internet logic.

I hope in 2028 the insurance industry is no longer leeching off of us all and we just have health care in the same way we all have roads, schools, postal service, police protection, and other fundamentals of a civilized society. That would be the best way to truly reduce all of our health care costs.

Oh I bet old Ricky Rick has insurance.
Courtesy the Texan tax payer(s).
And most likely insurance for life.
Courtesy the Texas tax payer(s).

And this is how it works don't you know...
I GOT MINE, BUT YOU CAN'T HAVE YOURS.

Rick merely said what Repub leaders obviously want everybody to believe. It aligns perfectly with their actions so far. Or would you say that it doesn't?

And, for sure, it's all about you, anyway, isn't it?

was wondering this myself. Rick Perry is a standard metric for good/bad ideas: If he thinks it it is a good idea, you know it is bad. Without fail.

Everything is dumber in Texas.
