What part of 3/4 of the States for approval do you not understand? You can’t get 3/4 of the people to agree on what beer to drink.

It can be paid for.
Start by cutting the bloated military budget by 30%. That would amount to about $225B yearly. We could even take a third of that amount to pay back the debt and there would still be $150B a year.

People have the opportunity to work right now. All they have to do is get off their asses and go get a job.
I have a job, and operate a small business on the side. I dealt with some current and potential clients in my home town yesterday. Every one of those businesses I walked I to had a help wanted sign in the window.
People have more opportunity to work than ever before right now in America.

The country is moving in the direction of a 2nd BoRs. Everything it includes is popular and is being enacted bit by bit.
If not an actual 2nd BoRs, there will be a de facto 2nd BoRs within the next 25 years.

If you open your eyes you’ll see it’s already happening.

Is the ACA not a step in that direction?
There are many programs that move the country towards addressing issues outlined in the 2nd BoRs. There are also proposals that go even further.

I almost hope I live to 100 so I can witness you being totally wrong. Well, that and to finally have the flying car in my driveway that I was promised in 1960.

I hope you do live to be 100.
I also hope you won’t be too upset when our country truly begins to value the lives if its citizens.

The left doesn’t value lives. Never has. Never.
It is a cult of death.
The left ONLY cares about POWER.

Thank you Bob, but should both you and I live another 25 years, it won’t be me who is disappointed. People have been talking like you do all of my life and they haven’t been right yet. The lib utopia you dream of is no more than a myth born in your progressive fantasy land.

I don’t know how old you are but during the course of my life our country has taken many steps in the direction of improving the lives of its people.
Medicare, CRA, EPA, ADA, ACA - all, to one degree or another, improve the quality of life of Americans.

None of those are on the second BoR list.
… and the last one did no such thing.

What you going to say when the country goes totally broke & can’t pay for any of that any more? It’s headed that way.
