    Health Care is not as bad as some may think

    Good, I would hate to see you lying to yourself.

    Health Care is not as bad as some may think

    Canadians flock to the United States for procedures that have three-year waits in Canada. Sweden's widely praised system is on the verge of collapse with the government being unable to raise taxes high enough to cover the program's costs. If that "makes economic sense," it's in a far different economy than any of us have ever experienced. Declaring health care a "right" necessarily declares choice "not a right." That is more reminiscent of Soviet Russia than the United States; we all know what happened to that economy.

    universal health care will become another tax burden on the hard-working "middle class" -- the "filthy rich" can buy anything they want. Government employees (including politicians like Sen. Hillary Clinton) will never join universal health care because their program, created by Congress and partially funded by tax money, is far superior to any "universal" plan they might slap together. The "underprivileged" (based on experience in civilized nations) will overload the universal health care system to the point that the "middle-class" working man will be forced to "go private" because he can't sit in the waiting room day after day after day to see an overworked doctor.

    Scooter Libby's Sentence Commuted

    A meaningless statement. Give me a break, I suppose you must hate ALL presidents who ordered bombing(s) then right?! Roosevelt, Truman, Clinton, etc, etc I thought people this stupid only existed on TV. .

    One person without insurance is a tragedy, lucy 13 million is a statistic I do not care, about any of those 13 million people. My heart does not bleed for everyone else like yours. I will stick to worrying about my family first and foremost, thank you very much.

    A thread for Single Bandsters

    I am tired of looking for relationships, dealing with shallow women and being shot down. I am tired of doing the work for nothing or very little. Maybe I should just wait until I am considered "normal" by society's standards. Any thoughts?

    Dating Sites

    I have had bad/annoying experiences but males tend to outweigh females on dating sites, so it is a battle for a overweight male to get a girl interested.

    You missing the point. 13 million in a country of 300+ million people is not that bad. In case you didn't notice also, we do NOT live in a socialist country. Why should I have to pay for some other persons insurance? I would rather MY hard earned money be spent by ME not taken by the goddamn government and spent for me.

    Scooter Libby's Sentence Commuted

    Who the hell is Omarosa? To answer your Question; Nope, however I have had PC Assmonkeys jump on me over the saying of "Pot calling kettle black". Calling it racist and such, I simply was attempting to deflect such comments right off the bat as it were.

    Fanboy is a term used to describe an individual (usually male, though the feminine version fangirl may be used for females) who is utterly devoted to a single fannish subject, or to a single point of view within that subject, often to the point where it is considered an obsession. Have I made up for my wisecrack yet?

    Scooter Libby's Sentence Commuted

    I believe she was just pointing out a clear case of the pot calling the kettle black. (The preceding sentence was not intended in any way to be racist or derogatory to any race or culture. Attempts to claim it as such will be met with the prompt labeling of offending poster(s) as an Assmonkey by myself.) (By the way, Assmonkey: best defined as any disagreeable idiot who has successfully combined being an asshole with the brainpower of a monkey. Similar to an Asshat, but multiplied by a factor 9.73. Thank you that is all.)

    Thats a chance you take when you go out with a fanboy :confused:

    Water while excersizing ..

    Thank you I have been fighting the good fight since shortly after I got out of High School. I only recently got the band because I was starting to slip back upwards in a bad way. Thanks to the band I have reversed that trend!!!

    I had half a shishkabob for the 4th. That is generally normal for me.

    Water while excersizing ..

    I have problems 'gulping' anything but i can take long 'smooth' swallows as long as there is nothing sitting at the bottom of the drain, so to speak. Hope this helps

    Scooter Libby's Sentence Commuted

    I'm glad Libby doesn't have any jail time. He should've been pardoned outright. Considering that he supposedly covered up a crime that NO ONE HAS EVEN BEEN CHARGED WITH. In other words, Libby is supposed to have covered up something that has not even been established as being a crime through someone actually being prosecuted for it. Punishment for covering something up should never exceed that of the underlying crime.

    Health Care is not as bad as some may think

    Not everybody is a socialist liberal like yourself for petes sakes. A younger, HEALTHY person is more likely to NOT CARE about health insurance. A person who makes LOTS of MONEY is less likely to want to deal with health insurance because they can PAY for medical care THEMSELVES. Is that clear enough for you my dear? I am going to choose to ignore your insulting remark.
