“Now you have to ask a question - is that really, is capitalism really about the ability of a handful of rich people to manipulate the lives of thousands of other people and walk off with the money? Or is that in fact somehow a little bit of a flawed system? And so I do draw distinction between looting a company, leaving behind broken families and broken neighborhoods and then leaving a factory that should be there.” PeopleShouldLittlesFactsAsksBitsAbilityWalksBehindsCompanyRichBrokenRepublicanLittle BitDrawsCapitalismLeavingDistinctionNeighborhoodFactoriesManipulateFlawedHandfulRich PeopleLootingBroken Family Author:Newt Gingrich

“The money in the stabilization fund, $130 billion which I call an insurance bailout, is put in to try to cure the adverse selection that Obamacare created by making insurance too expensive. Healthy people didn't buy it. They tried to fix this by forcing young people to buy it through an individual mandate. Even that didn't work. So the way the Republicans fix it is they don't actually fix it. They subsidize it. So we have to fix what went wrong with Obamacare, not just recapitulate something that's broken.” PeopleTryingIndividualBrokenHealthyRepublicanFund Author:Rand Paul
