I don't think you have to view food as a "right" to justify support for WIC. Even as a rich person (by any reasonable definition), I still would prefer to live in a society where people aren't starving in the street. Pragmatically, we're all better off if everyone has at least a little than if most have some and some have none.

Don't let the door hit you in the *** on the way out. I hear Somalia has the kind of taxes you want to pay.

UAE and Vatican seem to be the only safe bets today. I suppose if I have gobs of money, I could buy an island and declare myself king.

I'm sorry but in all serious I don't think that makes sense. He's on the one hand calling for a higher payroll tax to help pay for universal health care...then in a different proposal he eliminates payroll taxes? Is that your understanding as well?

No. What's funny is about ten years from now people like you and JJ are going to be running around claiming wifi or high speed internet access is a "basic human right."
Seems to me that to qualify as a basic human right it ought to be something that is basic to the human species.

Yeah it has been working like gangbusters so far.
All he has done is show she cant handle the spotlight and is actually more unlikeable the more she tries to seem like a human. She will win, but lets not pretend it is because she is all of a sudden a better candidate than she was in 2008...she is exactly the same Bernie just isnt Obama.

Re: Campaign 2016 - Snow White and the 7 dwarfs.
Not so. Not for me anyway. I don't care if health care is a basic human right or not. Every other major civilized country covers it. We're the only hold out. That's comical as far as I'm concerned. We're also the only ones without paid family leave. It would be a pretty solid argument you'd have if it wasn't already happening other places in the world.
Course, we could solve the whole thing if you'd just be willing to set the min wage at a livable amount and stop regressively taxing the **** out of everyone with a job who doesn't make 150 G's+. But, that's never going to happen on Repub planet so I guess not.

So living is not basic to the human species?
Sure, we all have a right not to have someone else take our life from us. That's my point. A basic human right is something you already have. You are effectively born with it, and no one should be able to take it away from you. It's not something someone or something has to provide for you. I have a basic human right to, say, practice a religion of my choice. But I don't have a right to have the government buy me the golden calf I may choose to worship.

How is denying medical care that allows a person to live simply because of financial reasons not denying one the right to life? How is that in any way equivalent to your golden calf BS? JFC how can you think like this?!? The right to live is the most basic fundamental human right! And you wish to deny that to people because of money?!? You're a monster.
Ok.
