    Medicare and the Veterans Admin. are govt run healthcare.When will the t baggers and GOP demand an end to these socialist programs?
    I dont see any signs at the t bag parties denouncing these govt healthcare programs that already exist.Why not?

    Id like to see these anti healthcare reform people opt out of medicare and the VA since they say govt healthcare is awful and inferior to 'freemarket' healthcare.

    Medicare went upside down this year. So they need to either raise taxes, cut benefits or drop the whole program and send it to the private sector.

    What would you do?
     
  3. I'd be more than happy to opt out of every f'n government program there is, on one condition. They repay me ALL taxes collected from me over the last 40 years, with compounded interest. I have no problem paying my own way, but it's rather difficult to do while the government extorts money from me to pay for their pet projects.

    BTW, I paid for my VA benefits in spades. While many were buring their draft cards, I enlisted in the Marines. These fucks in government owe me and other Vets, and they owe us big time. I don't use VA benefits as I'm lucky enough to have private insurance.
