If rightwingers got their way they would turn our prison systems into breeding grounds for disease that spreads to the general public when the inmates get out. That's working out great for Russia.

The prison system already is that way.

Anal rape is allowed in prison because it's considered inhumane to keep prisoners too isolated and safe.

HIV+ prisoners are not separated from the rest of the population because it hurts their feelings.

Hmmm, it's probably leftwingers have inadvertently caused prisons to be a breeding ground for HIV.

It's funny that you rage at Infohawk, and yet both of you have done the exact same thing to help this man - absolutely nothing.

Good point and it only strengthens the need universal care. When it comes down to the individual, the bum with his hand out I'm much like the right wing death eater. Let them eat shit I say. But at the end of day I know things could be better and am willing to suffer tax for all individuals to find care no matter the cost.

Who are these right wing fucks that go around talking about leeches to society? What do these pioneers provide for? It certainly isn't healthcare, infrastructure, or regulation. When the system is at best spaghetti dinner healthcare, no one has the right to look down on someone else and say "Look at all that I have given you to only be squandered".

When there is care for all, then maybe you can start griping about what you offer to society.

We can't afford Cadillac healthcare for all. And it's not really benevolence to place a huge burden on the rest of us just so you can feel better about yourself.

There's no reason why anybody shouldn't receive necessary healthcare to preserve life, which has real value, for lack of a virtual representation of value.

Yeah there is. For the same reason you can't magically say everyone should make a million dollars. Reality: whether you call it wealth or money, there is a limited supply of it. You have to make choices.

We have already made this choice as a society that we are going to provide health care to those who need it. ER's are required, by a law that Reagan signed, to treat people regardless of their ability to pay.

Or maybe its from rightwingers who really like the idea of extra punishment on people because they are fucked up people? Look at whenever someone posts about that sheriff in Az, most of the righties on here can barely hold in their excitement when talking about him. As far as the righting is concerned, there isn't enough prison rape, because all prisoners are bad people who deserve it.

Probably,schmobably. Do you have studies to back up this BS assertion?
