I wouldn't call myself "leaning over the edge", but I'm pretty conservative. Moderate in some cases.My comment came in response to an anti-American and, frankly, racist poster who suggested Americans cannot have the same health care standards in other countries.
There you go, bad-mouthing the American people again.
Patriotic? WTF? You are high, my friend. The only thing the government is going to do is charge us more and give us less. Patient care is going to suffer and you'll be wondering how you got stuck in such a ****hole for a healthcare system.
I'm not saying what we have now is great, because it's not, thanks to the joint efforts of Nixon and Mills creating HMO's and Medicare/caid. What we need to do is put the choices back into the patients' hands and let economics drive our healthcare system, this will help to autoregulate costs and it reward good quality care. If/when Obama's healthcare plan goes through patients will have fewer choices thus creating a situation more dire than the one we are already in. This will cause costs to continue to rise and will inevitably lead to fewer treatment options as a form of cost control. Then we will all be forced to grab our ankles and PAY MORE TAXES for FREE medical insurance.
No thank you. There are other solutions, but people don't want to think about them, because as always, people put their lives into Uncle Sam's hands and blindly trust our governement to lead us to the promised land.
Wake up, man. Go read a book, and please God stop calling people more educated than yourselves with more at stake in their lives idiots just because they know this new system will fail.
I think she looks like a chipmunk....thats just my opinion though.Blah blah more taxes blah blah fewer choices blah blah Obama's birth certificate.
If you have that much hostility towards Uncle Sam and his buddy Obama, there are hundreds of countries over five continents that you could go to. In the meantime, I will watch as our great president and his hot wife score another legislative victory.
I think welfare falls more on the fiscal side of things, not sure though.
Is that the only response you can come up with to anyone that opposes your viewpoints? I would respond in kind, but I'm guessing your reply would be something to the tune of "if you don't like what I have to post, go live in North Korea where they don't have the Internet."
That would be useless, like explaining quantum physics to a puppy. 
I don't know what people want from me. If you're conservative, you obviously can't handle facts and need everything simplified to short phrases/slogans. That's what I'm giving! Do you expect me to waste my time explaining the economics of healthcare reform in the country to a CONSERVATIVE?!!
Anyway, if you don't like my posts, go to Pyongyang or something.
I am also a registered Libertarian. I am surprised to see so many of us on this thread.
