Roxy...I'm glad that you're passionate about your views on Obamacare, but how many times do you have to bring this point up?

They won't run out of rich people to tax Roxy, that's the beauty of it.

I wonder who pays for Roxy' healthcare now?
I personally would be happy with a sin tax on items that have been identified to lead to medical problems and obesity, and use these funds to support national healthcare.
Add a 5% tax to candy bars, sodas, alcohol cigarettes, fast food, and other items that may eventually be the cause of later diseases.
It may not only help discourage consumption of some of these items, but also pay medical costs today.

"I wonder who pays for Roxy' healthcare now?"
I don't know. But I'm sure that once he reaches retirement age he won't touch either Medicare or Social Security, because both of those programs reek of socialism, and are supported by ...............TAXES! Ah, the Horror!

On another note, I saw Senator Grassley at a townhall basically lose it when challenged about his healthcare vs that of the normal American. He basically said, if you want good healthcare, go work for the federal government, or John Deere.
It was astonishing in its honesty and total lack of political acumen.
