This is not some culture it is known a propaganda,, material with out substance,, I noticed the republicans did not talk about the Bush culture that ran the national debt up 9 trillion dollars .. starting with Regan you are in Texas ,, why have you not gone in and arrested Bush for accepting a bribe.. if you ask what bribe.. look at that ranch of his . . a political gift unfortunately a bribe remains a bribe no matter what politically correct name you give it,,
You complain loudly about heal care for the masses but you jump up and down on how you have provided for your health care.. If it was not for the masses you would have no health care as they are the ones who pay for it with their taxes.. and if you really want to pay for your own with out the support of the masses .. well be prepared to lay out the money and a lot of it.. I am sure you will be thankful for the new law where you can not be refused.. for pre-existing conditions.. Those that are using political influence.. well chances are they are the wealthier and more likely they are republican simply because they tend to want to use political influence.. Until law enforcement gets away from politics.. and starts dealing with political corruption instead of just covering it up.. well there is not much that can be said..
