Why don't we have an independent post this or a someone from a party who didn't create the situation or cares about it. Then we can see some credibility of how a person actually cares about the subject.

Perhaps if you saw people as people instead of as party labels, you would recognize that WalterMitty is not exactly your average Republican.
It doesn't matter if you can't take the person seriously. It's like a slave owner trying to be an abolitionist. My other comparison was a little to controversial.

The "health care crisis" has contributed significantly to the complete collapse of the U.S. automotive manufacturing industry.  They are continuously slashing jobs and closing plants because they're constantly fighting a losing battle against healthcare costs.

Well...that, and really sh**tty car models.

No, you're wrong.  The 'complete collapse' of the industry you mention was caused by right-wing political actions.

Zuh?  Overseas car manufacturers do not have the same burden for covering health care costs of current and past employees, which gives them a massive competitive advantage.

I know you want to be partisan and rah-rah-Democrat-boom-bah, but, seriously, come on.

It is because of all the benefits they give out. Healthcare is one of them. However, I'd have to disagree with you about the cars. Over the past two years, they started from making their cars bland and then everyone was like you're not selling because these cars have no style. So then they made some really great looking and performing cars, but it turns out people just don't want those either.

I'm certainly still more worried about what would happen if gay marriage was legalized then if you had health care.  But I am more worried about UHC being reality than gay marriage
And you're pro-life?

Nice try, but bzzt...comparing waltermitty's republican affliation to a slave owner trying to be an abolitionist doesn't work.

try again.
My other comparison is too controversial so I won't say it. The fact is, it is just hypocritical.

If you can't take the person seriously because of the color of their avatar, exactly whose problem is that?
Did you have problems with connecting the dots now or puzzles when you were a child?
