Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Exactly the point I was making, when veterans benefits are constantly cut and under-funded of course the level of care drops, but is that is because of political sabotage. You can not gut funding for veterans benefits and then turn around and use the deteriorating service as an example of why corporate healthcare is the solution.

Healthcare is complicated and much effort is made by certain parts of the political landscape to distort the facts in a way that confuses people.

The treatment of veterans in our society is nothing short of criminal.

ask vets how well government medical works... or the American Indians

I don't know what contract employees have, but the salary plans pretty much mirror the plans available in the state exchanges already.

Try reading the damned SPD and see what it says. Sheesh.

Privatizing public resources is just a scheme to steal the common property of the taxpayers, and then use it to generate corporate profits.

Government services are not perfect but when there are constant cuts and sabotage and then that impact is used as an example for government failure, that is dishonest.

I think Trump has finally settled the idea that corporate management is not an effective option for our national government. Privatizing work just inserts the profit motive and encourages shortcuts on services and safety.

Yeah, because government is so good at everything it does. Turn health care over to the same people who make the DMV work so flawlessly.

It is surprising the large corporations do not come out in support of medicare for everyone, single payer health care would save the business world lots of money and give us all better medical care. The only losers on that would be big pharma and the insurance companies.

Might as well, we are paying more for our watered down health insurance as it is.

My understanding is yes, that is exactly what Randy and his gang want to do.
