This one I will give you. But government can not solve it either nor make it better. We have become too immoral of a nation. More so than overseas.

Why don't more of us just choose not to pay for health insurance and jack up your premiums a little more? We'd save a buck and you'd pay more. In a universal health care system everyone would pay something into the system. Why do you want to pay more in premiums for someone who's paying nothing into the system instead of everyone paying less in taxes with negotiated perscription costs in universal coverage? Why do you think it's fair that millions of Americans choose not to have health insurance and so we who do have to pay extra in inflated premiums to pay their bills for them? Hey...you're paying more right now. If everyone paid into a system with negotiated prices it wouldn't cost as much as what we're paying now.

All of this is exactly what I don't want. Negotiated prices means negotiated services. Ever heard of HMO?. No, I don't want the government telling me when and where and how much health care I can or can not get. Look at the IRS, the education dept., the welfare dept. Social Security. Why would you think I want them running my health care? And premiums went up initionally due to greedy lawsuits back about 10 yrs ago, only now are we looking at the long term results. Don't start another Democratic "gimme program" just because you don't want to make your trial lawyer lobby mad. Regulation can work with out taxing everyone to death.

Thats the governments job, protect us from the evils of the world, be it other countries or the evils here. But its not to dictate our lives for us. It was not formed so we could pay it to provide for us as it sees fit. It was formed because that was the life the founders fought to get away from. It was formed so we could live with the freedom to provide for ourselves as we see fit.

You can list all the statistics you want, but if it puts us back to where we were pre-America then what have you gained? This is what it comes down to and what you can't argue with. You talk about the Republicans being bad by wanting globalization while in the same sentence supporting Democrats because they want to change our policies to be like other countries in the world ?

If you start to notice a foul smell like your nose up someones rearend it is because you just circled around and come up behind yourself.


(The Reality of it All: The dems will win the white house, and might even get away with all this universal stuff. They will also further our position in the UN towards creating a NWO. While I argue against it, I accept it also simply because it is all a sign of the times)
