  • This person doesn't understand "free".

    Somebody somewhere has to pay for it, the government dosen't have any money they can only get it from us.

  • @Iain1962 you're right, the reason we went through a major recession is because the country is so much debt more going out thats coming in ect. The government are trying to change the welfare system to try and get it's self out of debt, the country has no choice but doing something.

    You believe in corporate boogiemen. This is nonsense.

    Think of government as a monopolistic corporation which has the ability to write laws and use force... with government, all your fears of 'corporations' are realized.

    Keep in mind that even the weakest government can squash the most powerful corporation with it's pinky.

    Big business loves big government... because they can snuggle up to it to get favorable regulations. This is antithetical to a free society.

    It does not work in Europe. It is costly and ineffective... and it has contributed to a depressed birthrate. Europe imports most of the advanced medical technology from the US... very little of it is developed domestically.

    There is no legitimate reason why the government should run a health care corporation. This is foolish.

    "Our democracy will cease to exist

    when you take away from those who are willing to work

    and give to those who would not."

    - Thomas Jefferson

    "When the people find that they can vote themselves money,

    that will herald the end of the republic."

    - Benjamin Franklin

    Not long after the introduction of the welfare state in the UK... the British Empire collapsed. Why do you think the government should run health care corporations and manage charity programs? It's silly.

  • Without welfare the capitalist system is reduced to a fiscal social darwinism - a system in which money survives and propagates; one in which the 'lesser', the poorer, are made extinct by pitiless greed.

  • Anyone knows the first song used here? What's its title? Thanks in advance!

  • @gemanrioaks "Young Folks" by Peter, Bjorn and John

    Shut up. Every rich man makes his money by the expoitation of poor workers.

    Every rich man wouldnt be rich if he could not call on the labour of those workers.

    So whose fault is it that a poor man cannot afford private healthcare?

    And if every labourer walked out tomorrow to look for better employ, would you welcome their initative or order them back to the factories just so 'you alone' could make more wealth.

    Its selfish people like u who are the crime.

  • Future historians and economists will laugh at how silly and regressive Beveridge's ideas have proven to be.

    The welfare state is a crime against humanity.

    It created a society that was dependent on government for all of it's primal needs, maintaining that society in a permanent state of adolescence.

    Way to go Beveridge!
