They cover everything that I pay them to cover, I'm sure of that. I forgo some other coverages of my own free will.

But yeah I'm a terrible human because I don't vote against my own interests...beautiful.

an insurance company finding ways to refuse to pay out for the coverage you've paid for is the quintessential american thing for a business to do

i don't know why you feel so optimistic

Major companies including Cisco Systems Inc., Pfizer Inc. and Coca-Cola Co. say they’ll turn over most gains from proposed corporate tax cuts to their shareholders, undercutting President Donald Trump’s promise that his plan will create jobs and boost wages for the middle class.

It's almost like we've done this before and that's exactly what happened

It's almost like money at the top is not what creates jobs but demand that comes from the bottom classes

Gov revenue rose under Reagan and the economy blew a load.

The position was never that every last penny goes directly to new jobs by the same companies.
Some businesses saying some of it will go to shareholders does nothing to actually undermine the position that lower corporate tax rates are good for the economy.

Then debt skyrocketed, structural inequality blew a load, and the gains went mostly to the top.

Republicans are the party of short term gains while screwing over future generations.

Medicare and social security are the reason for the debt. Both Democrat programs. Looking forward to your next redirect.
