Who is stealing from who? Because I have lived my life full of effort and am able to pay for whatever I want am I stealing from the ghetto thug who puts ZERO effort into life by not wanting to pay for him? Or is the ghetto thug stealing from me by expecting me to pay for the things in life he wants, that are not free, but is not willing to work to secure?
Let's clear up your misconceptions of the US tax system first.

Your taxes pay for schools you'll never attend. Roads you'll never drive on. Events you'll never see. Food you'll never eat. And yes, even now, health care you'll never receive.

As a participant in our representative republic (through activism and voting), you can help write policy on how your tax dollars are spent. But no single person makes the decisions. If you live in the country, you pay your taxes, with no ability to direct that money to things/people only you approve of.

So your tax dollars might be helping your neighbor down the street. Or a single mother in the next city. Or some street thug with a criminal record. It's not up to you do micromanage each cent of the taxes you pay.

He sure as fuck won't turn down the services those tax dollars provide, though.

Again, stupidest argument I've ever seen. Also, I'm probably old enough to be your dad, "kid." Save what you consider a witty retort, I'm done with you, genius. Have fun trolling someone else.

lol, god some people make me laugh. Reflect my question with emotions, priceless,

but please answer this,

So, in your eyes, do you think the USA should also pay all other nation's health care cost? As you said, why put money before human life.

OK, I'll play your game.

Do you think the USA should invade any country that has a resource that's lucrative and kill everyone who resists?

No, of course not, but what point does this have with healthcare?

Do you think the USA should depose the leadership of a small country that wants to nationalize profits of their resources to help it's inhabitants, and install a puppet government who will let American corporations run the country, and reap most of the spoils?

If you mean like what we did to Iraq, then that is wrong and we shouldn't do that to any country.

Kucinich owned the hell out of some retard crying about the supposed horrors of the Canadian health system. It was pretty sweet. Also this bill is terrible, written by the insurance industry, and will only hurt the common man. Single payer is the way to go, every civilized country knows this and if it weren't for the fact that we have a fascist party as a major political force we'd have that.

I'm convinced the USA has the highest concentration of stupid citizens on the planet. It boggles my mind that such a large portion of the population can be convinced into disregarding common sense. "I don't want no commie gubment health care 'cause Hannity tol' me it sucked! I'll pay $600 a month, or I'll do without!" Unbelievable.

It's true. It blows my mind that we don't have a universal health care system.

so·ci·o·path [soh-see-uh-path, soh-shee-] Show IPA
?noun Psychiatry.
a person, as a psychopathic personality, whose behavior is antisocial and who lacks a sense of moral responsibility or social conscience.


"I think we see another Socialist."

"Who say's you have a right to medical care?"

"Is it still going to be paid for by taxing the benefits of those who actually have them? If so, I guess I'll be saying goodbye to having a refund."

"I'll stay at my private hospital, you can go to Walter-Reed for your government cheese."

"Do those other industrialized nations have the same population we do? Are they as fat/unhealthy as we are?

Do they have the same kind of immigrant numbers we do?

Are they counted on to protect much of the world like we are? (I really wish we werent)

Do they give as much aid to other countries as we do?

Do they have the same inverted pyramid that is about to happen with the baby-boomers hitting their SS benefit years?

Are foreign investors cutting off their debt? Threatening to drop their currency as a world standard?"

How the fuck do you people live with yourselves?

Time and time again government programs are proven wrong yet the USA keeps trying to impose new, more expensive programs that will not work.

Amtrak? That sure turned into a money maker like the promised once the government took it over.
USPS? Sure, they are a model of innovation in the shipping industry.
Medicare? I guess they are the world standard in efficiency.
US Military? How many of their projects go over budget?

Morality has nothing to do with it. Government has not and never will be efficient or innovative because it has not incentive to be efficient or innovative. After all, the government has not competition.

BTW: You have a CHOICE to not buy health insurance if your employer does not provide it to you.


Amtrak was killed by:

Cars becoming:
faster
more comfortable
more fuel efficient

Airlines becoming:
cheaper
faster
more prevalent / having more routes, cities, etc..

Everyone deciding to buy multiple cars, and use them for short- to medium-distance travel, and the subsequent buildout of our road infrastructure, coupled with the increasing convenience/speed and falling costs of flight for long-distance travel, that is what killed Amtrak.

Is this really hard to figure out?

So uncivilized people don't deserve health care? You're an evil monster who deserves to die.*
