  2. Exactly, why does health come before a house in Liberal minds? Shelter is by far the most pressing need of any individual out there, after food and water. Though i guess once they win socialised healthcare, that housing will be the next step, then it will be a car, then an ipod, and so on and so forth.

  4. this is the most false argument coming from these people.


    Remember, these people are Darwinists ... The Least Of Their Concerns Are the Weak


    God Helps Those Who Help Themselves ... Theses Scumbags pretend to help those who vote for them.

    And why shouldn`t hardworking/innovative/productive parents provide for their children etc?

    Maybe/maybe not, but you want to tell medical personell who to treat?

    If government control medical care, bureaucrats will make the call.

    An innocent enough process it would seem, but over time it leads to social stratification, which undermines the meritocratic ideal. Besides, to quote Thoreau, it is not enough to say that you work hard to get your gold, so does the Devil work hard. How do we mitigate this? That's one of Man's toughest problems.

    Actually, yes, I do want medical professionals to allocate medical resources. That is, assuming they are professionals in the truest meaning of that word.

  10. loik don't you think they already make the calls, as insurance company execs.
    I understand the mistrust of the government but I do not understand the trust of the insurance cos.
    I'm not in the corner of either side, I am for what works. If the right would put out their ideas and take the effort to put together a complete plan that would give them a little credibility, but they put forth nothing. As it is they have no credibility only walking party lines as spoilers.
