Did you read this part, blue?:

"Use my tax dollars to provide us with real universal health care instead of pissing it all away on lawmakers salerys and bennifits as well as invasions, meddeling and nation building"

You must have cherry-picked that post for the stuff that supports your paranoid Communist-invasion-view of the world, and skipped right past this statement...

Whatcha drinkin' tonight?

I've started out with a Fat Tire- not my favorite, but a friend left a few in my fridge. Gonna bump my way up to a Wassail later, and maybe a nice scotch for dessert.

National news (CBS or whoever ) a voter living in Virginia who along with her husband received their healthcare through Medicare voted for the republican candidate for governor to save her grandchildren from the affordable care act. She did not seem to realize she was voting to cut her grandchildren off from a similar structure that she was benefiting from. To much partition-ship, politicians and their constituents seemed more devoted to their dogma then finding a workable solution. the american version of the Taliban.

Welcome to Communism. Destroy the middle class and steal the welath of the 'rich' in the guise of 'helping the poor'.

The moment you conflate socialized healthcare with communism, you have completely lost the argument.

Read tradman's comments closely, blue & the rest of you Repugs...

He may be agreeing with you that the ACA is a disaster, but he's not keen on seeing tax dollar$ going towards the dumbass shite you guys support, either.

Confusing, ain't it?

Europe is even waking up to this, they are becoming more nationalistic and fiscally prudent as we speak.


How's that working for Britain?

It might be interesting to hear from people who do NOT feel that basic health care is a fundamental right within a civilized society. If you are one such person who does not feel that everyone is so entitled, can you tell us why? Do you feel education is a basic right? What about police protection? What about public roads? Also in your argument do not use extremes like a full set of dental implants for the patient who has "meth mouth" (abused methamphetamine and rotted out his teeth). We are talking about treating that patient's dental pain with antibiotics and analgesics along with someplace where he can go to extract the rotten teeth still in his jaw.

If you do not feel it is a basic right in a civilized society, please tell us why?

I am saddened when idiots try to tell me communism is dead, or that socialism is actually really awesome.

Some cite the death of communism as Russia's re-emergance, but they forget North Korea and Venezuela.

Which brings me to my point. That is, communism is never instituted, it creeps in. This is what is happening in Venezuela.

Largo? Got comments on this?

We are creeping into socialism in this country. We'll see what happens.
