And yet the seeds to the housing crash were planted as far back as the Carter era. Trying to blame Republicans for policies instituted by both parties is just ignoring facts and wanting to always blame the other guy no matter what.

What is it with your wanting to pin Obamacare onto Heritage any way you can? Is it because you think it then insulates criticism of it from conservatives?

You don't realize how much you are trying to stretch this do you.

If Think Progress came out with a study saying that gun control needs to be removed and conceal carry be allowed everywhere, and then they decided to say that that study is unworkable; would Dems be beholden to it for 20 years? Because thats what you are doing with Heritage and health care.

Does Obamacare require:
      Only minimal catastrophic coverage?
      Minimal regulations on insurures?
      Tax changes to eliminate employer-sponsored insurance?
      Replacing medicare w/ vouchers?

These are all parts of the Heritage plan.

Saying that the Heritage plan is the same as Obamacare is like saying that the Ryan voucher plan is the same as the NHS as they are both health care plans.

The key word there is "Politicians". Not Democrats. Not Republicans. (As they both do this).

And yet when the Democrats came to power, the motto was "Never let a crisis go to waste".

You mean the plan that Heritage came up with in the early 90's that they concluded was unworkable? Romneycare and Obamacare are nothing like that (they are worse).

RTFA - Republicans called for this to happen.

"Last Friday, Sens. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) and Mike Lee (R-Utah), along with Reps. F. James Sensenbrenner Jr. (R-Wis.) and John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.), signed a letter calling on Holder to end Equitable Sharing."

RTFA next time -

Republicans called for this to happen.

Depends which part of the GOP you are talking about though (As the Republican party is not some giant monolithic lock step party). The Republicans that are concerned about civil liberties (ie, those who didn't think about civil liberties when the patriot act was first signed, but have regretted it) will support this move. They have seen how this program has been abused by law enforcement agencies and needs to be curtailed.

(BTW, the democrats are very predictable in opposing anything republicans do, no matter how rational it is).

This kind of shit belongs on DailyKos or Politico, but not on Slashdot.

Actually, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress would be great as a movie...

So what about the 3 Billion in long term losses it had to reveal back in '87? Additionally, per the CBO, the ExIm will cost taxpayers about 2 billion over the next decade.

The simple fact is the US taxpayer need to stop subsidizing big business. (ironically, this is something occupiers and tea partiers agree on).

Elizabeth Warren is also in bed w/ the corps. Why else would she vote to continue the ExIm Bank (which is basically free money to a few large multinationals)?

So the dedicated traffic for LoL wont be allowed?

I guess West Coast players remain fucked.
