My problem with the democrats is that they are for redistribution of wealth (take money from the one who have it, and give it to the ones who don't). In my opinion that's theft; the only reason it's legal, it's because the government is doing it. I don't think that tax money should be used to ensure that lazy-ass "poor" people get a TV-set, a car, cell-phone, and so on. Nor should this money go towards making sure that everybody has access to decent helathcare. Last year I was working as an EMT 60 hrs/week, pulling in about $15,000/yr, and still had enough to pay for my insurance (which wasn't bad at all). So, to make it clear, many of those 40 million uninsured (not quite sure where this figure comes from) are uninsured not because they don't have the money, but because they don't make medical insurance a priority (and why should they, let the government pay for their bills). I think it is outrageous that as it is, when it comes to income, the first 10% of the americans, pay 90% of the taxes. And what I really fail to understand is why on this thread, which assumingly gathers people who want to become doctors, there are individuals who support Kerry and Edwards, specimens known for making money by suing doctors; do you hoenstly believe that once in office they wii go through a life-changing experience, and all of the sudden support doctors??? Or maybe you believe in what they say now, and ignore their past actions???
