Rand Paul stops unanimous passage of 9/11 first responders funding bill.
Republican Sen. Rand Paul objected Wednesday to an attempt to pass the bill funding 9/11 first responders' health care unanimously, arguing that passing such a long-term bill without offsetting the cost would contribute to the national debt.
Fuck You Rand Paul...You Repugnant Repulsive Republican POS!

disgusting human.Krassy - Wait *Does real research to find out exact cost. 70 year bill, Ok. Cost for first 10 years, $10.2 Billion or $90+ Billion total. Woah he has a point. Who pays??robotron3k
- You pay Robo. As a New Yorker you should be happy to do so.ben_
- Numbers are a bit strange, they have paid out $5 Billion to 21,000, 700 have passed. but 19,000 have not been paid out, so they want $70-90 Billion more??? Hmmmrobotron3k
- I'm sure at the end the people are getting monies, but smells like a few others are scraping from the pot of gold as well...robotron3k
- Thanks for the research Robo, it's chump change so they should really vote for it.zarkonite
- A rounding error compared to how much deficit the republicans have added since they were put in charge!zarkonite
- This is true, the future is for the future people, spend away!robotron3k
- The good oldé USA had no problem forking over $2.4 trillion by 2017 for losing wars in both Iraq and Afghanistan.utopian
- But our American hero's on 9/11 deserve only the best! - The GOP Rally Cryutopian
- a responsible representative. at the end of the day it will be the middle class most fucked by uncontrollable costs on such a long time line with healthcaredeathboy
- costs running rampant already due to poor legislation. if anything shows how few ppl represent the ppls interests above their owndeathboy
- however if NY wants to fund it themselves until 2090 for anyone who possibly gets ill involved so be it. Its really a local issuedeathboy
- just add on property tax and sales tax to pay for it.deathboy
- make a statement for the rest of the US and show how much people like to give their money to causes not their own.deathboy
- 9/11 was not a "local issue."Krassy
- but really if it was such a big deal and popular why wouldnt NYC fund it themselves? I mean it's not like a bunch of money or anything the city couldn't afford?deathboy
- haha hell it is a special interest. oh krassy you getting on board with the USA patriotism and flying flags after 9/11 and wanting to storm terrorism?deathboy
- well there is terrorism on the border and NYC should pay its fair share for a border wall right? The collectivist shit cuts both waysdeathboy
- Pay for it through an increased federal property or income tax... but that's unfair because those are so much higher than the rest of the country as a percentagdeathboy
- which is a way to soak the wealthy for causes not their own. why such things should be state leveldeathboy
- let the lower states increase taxes for a wall and not call on federal funding. see if they still feel so strongly when its not someones elses moneydeathboy
- This political fed fund slush funds calls for every special interest from state politicians is getting asininedeathboy
- good thing most politicians are as dumb AF and not trying to trade this more expensive policy with cheaper wall funding. those situations are always win/win fordeathboy
- them and lose/lose for the people. good thing theyre all self centered focused on self interests and funds for their special interestsdeathboy
- could always run a go fund me account too and let those who feel so strongly including jon stewart to fund it. just crazy to setup state funding for any medicaldeathboy
- *fed funding for state level disasters. imagine setting up funds for CA fighter while the gov restricts controls of fire control out of fear of pollutiondeathboy
- it pretty much incentivizes risk which first responders get a nice coin for in the price already. it boggles the mind its an issue on rational stancedeathboy
- oh and its not a local issue because people wouldn't support it if it was. that says everything you need to know. the interests and goalsdeathboy
- being best, the usual republican morbidity..neverscared
- what the fuck does that even mean never? rationally i know nothing, but what do you think you are saying? a disease to try to be the best?deathboy
- we can sum up on every motivational poster ever sold that is an unpopular ideadeathboy
- unless you can clarify the meaning of your statement? and love to see how you tie it to single sided partisanshipdeathboy
