It's either hypocrisy or ignorance. Either way, Maher and Olbermann just don't understand. Maher says some very reasonable things from time to time, but Olbermann is just a lying piece of shit.
So wait a minute.... If 80% of Republicans will vote for a Republican who can beat Obama, don't you think Paul is a shoe in for the GOP nomination? I mean he is probably the most popular amongst Democrats.
It does not matter weather Ron Paul or anyone else wins the election, it does not change the fact that the US is the only 1st world country where health care is not considered a right, or the fact that it is 37th in health care.
@dave19941000 Its hard to afford healthcare for 300 million people when we are spending trillions on war. Ron Paul can end the wars himself as commander in chief.
@dave19941000 When did he say that? First off he has said he will gradually make reductions. Secondly it is well known that spending in education doesnt mean better quality. Same for healthcare. You equate spending with improvement which is flawed.
@Jononutoob The first part he implies whenever he calls himself a Libertarian because that is part of the ideology, as for healthcare and education, you ae right, the US pays twice as much per capita for both compared to any 1st world nation yet is behind all others. The point is that aslong as the US refuses to accept Universal healthcare and reforms its education system to one similar to other 1st world nations there is no way it will ever catch up, and Libertarians opposes it.
@dave19941000 To be honest, I look at the state of the EU and most European nations, and it makes me laugh when you say WE have to catch up to them. Sure lets catch up to Greece.
@dave19941000 Libertarians are fueled by ideals. Those ideals include self responsibility and personal freedom. Europe is a stew of non independent liberal states.
@dave19941000 The problem isnt the government system. The problem is Americans live in a lifestyle that inevitably leads to expensive healthcare service. Americans also are raised to be idiots. You cant force someone to be healthy and cant force someone to learn. It takes pride in the people and America lacks the things in society you cant see.
This health care issue contradicts the 10th admendment to the U.S. Constitution. KNOW BOTH SIDES OF THE STORY. Health care is an important issue and all aspects of the issue need to be considered. Ron Paul treated many patients in his time FOR FREE b/c of his strong moral character as a doctor. Moral Character is the key to health care. W/out a charitable moral character, forcing people to be charitable won't last. Individuals, including those in a coma, are protected by the U.S. Constitution!
I suspect that Maher's unconscious anti Ron Paul agenda is not based on Paul's views on the govts role in health care, but Dr. Paul's willingness to address the problems caused by US servility to Israel
@Uncle99B I'm going to help U out, Dumb Ass. I'm going feed ur hate. Make it easy 4 U 2 hate Bill Maher. Fact:Bill Maher's mother is Jewish. I know U don't need facts in ur fantasy world but ur hatred is so twisted and stupid I figure this could only make dumber. I can c U now ranting about Bill Maher and Zionist. I going to hold my breath b/c U can't control it. Again, either U work for the Zionists or U r superstupid. Both are pretty bad.
What Paul is saying here is that HE TOOK THAT RISK. He had freedom to not take insurance, to make his own, INFORMED decision. Getting hit by a truck was unexpected yes, but INSURANCE COVERS YOU FOR THE UNEXPECTED.
I usually quite like Maher, but why is it when Paul says people should look after one another, he has to take it in such a god damn stupid way?
Paul isn't saying get your neighbour to cure your cancer, he talking about financial aid, you total ASS.
@naryanr Paul said that we should just let the guy die unless churches or the community would pay for him without actually saying: "yes, we should let him die"
@Zentz29 Even if he had actually said that, I don't see why that's crazy.
You make a stupid move like not insuring yourself (when you can afford it) and then you get hit by a truck. That's too bad. Guess he should have thought of that BEFORE he decided he was invincible.
Ron Paul is right on. If people don't want these "difficult" decisions in life (like swapping a little money for their CHANCE AT SURVIVAL) then they should shut the hell up and THINK before they yell they want "freedom".
@Zentz29 Oh dear, looks like somebody's getting a little cranky. Why don't you have some juice, take a little nap and try reading what I wrote again. K buddy?
@Zentz29 So you're allergic to juice or something. Letting people die isn't what he said either but that didn't stop you putting it up your ass then whining about it. I don't hear complaining about the Am. lives being lost in the east every day.
You really think if this was the reality, the cost of health insurance would remain the same? Or that commonwealth funds wouldn't be subsidized with the massive monetary boost this plan would make available? Time to wake up. He's a doctor for fuck sake.
Ron Paul said the guy shouldn't get care if he has no insurance and nobody to help him. That's just a fact. You're either going to admit it, or you're going to stop replying to me. Those are your only options.
I don't care about anything else you said. My only point is that Ron derp-a-derp derp Paul said the man should not get care because he doesn't have insurance.
@Zentz29 If you're stupid enough to need help from the government when deciding whether or not to die, then maybe you should bail them out yourself, you've obviously got a lot in common.
I think I'll choose my own options thanks. When you've grown out of your pissy little brat stage and figured out how to make a real argument instead of your shockingly witty 5-year-old-esque blanks, maybe you'll figure out a way to pull your head out of your ass and learn something. OK kid?
@Jdrbean just from that comment alone I can tell that you're a weird, creepy Paul cultist.
Now it's your turn to be my good little bitch! I assume you read the string of comments & not just the last one.
Did Paul say to let the man die if churches or the community wouldn't help? I know he didn't actually say the words, but he made it clear that the man should die.
Now be my good little bitch and admit it, or don't reply. You know the drill. You don't have a choice but to do what I say.
@Zentz29 When your iq reaches tipple digits ( if that ever happens
) ill open up a discussion with you. Until then your just a fucking moron. I can understand not everyone agrees with Ron Paul that's not my beef. You sir are just a fucking idiot. I don't have time to waste on a piece of shit like you.
@Jdrbean Who's the moron? I'm right. Paul wants to let the man die.
So you won't admit that Ron Paul wants to let the man die?
You know what. I'm feeling particularly generous today. I will grant you one comment to explain why he wasn't saying to let the man die. I like to give my bitches a chance to explain sometimes. It makes them feel special.
Now you have three options. Admit it, don't reply, or make your case.
@Zentz29 Are you trying to set a world record for repeating the same sentence in a paragraph? I don't have time to re watch the video and honestly don't know what the hell your talking about saying "let the man die". Also quite an ignorant statement to say Im a Ron Paul cultist i only found out about him a few days ago. However from the debates i've seen he's more articulate with his speech and his understanding of policies than any other politician i've seen. At least half his speeches,,,,,
@Zentz29 are not "uhhhhhhh". And this whole be my bitch and shut up or blah blah blah just how shows how much of a doosh you are. This is the last time i will even dignify anything you have to say with a response. People like you are the reason that America and humanity has gone to shit.

@anarcy7777u I agree with you 100%, but understand someone's going to react to what someone saying something that may conflict with someone's idea or belief. I call it the force of nature and its the same type of behavior that's been going on for thousand's of years. But we can always sit back and relax, and enjoy the show :)
I support Ron Paul, but seriously people need to realise that not everyone will agree with you. Let people say as they please, thats what free speech means.
Stupid cunts, this is why dem's are so retarded, Ron Paul's only problem is he has hard time explaining to idiots what he means. Cradle to grave welfare cant work, neither can do for some and not others. Paul's point was no one is ever turned away, much less a person in a coma.
Bill Maher is such a corporatist inconsistent cock sucker. He'll spout his support for Ron Paul, even invite him onto the show, then he just back hands him with this shit...just to get a quick laugh.
@xodis911 You are fucking nuts. Maher is always the same. He is a very intelligent man and if he is wrong he says it. No stable minded person will repeat the same things like a robot. He challenges people on their weak points. We should.
@stevinie7free Bullshit. He completely overgeneralized Ron Paul's stance on Medical Care. Ron Paul doesn't need people like Maher to completely misguide his brain-dead audience with this. Everyone believes they have a "right" to medical care. which is bullshit because that can only be brought by the expense of others. government intervention in Medical Care brings nothing but oppressive bureaucracies. Medical Care would be more effective through the free market system.
@xodis911 Apparently, generalizations can be even more general. I think you are right though, he did exactly what EVER PERSON IN POLITICS DOES. (See what I did there?) You're right again, Ron Paul can misguide people with his own beliefs, he doesn't need Maher. Nice generalization, not everyone believes in that "right", the majority does, and that's why it's there. Great vast claims with no backing, I love doing that myself. And socialism would have worked if Stalin showered his cats more.
@xodis911 Well, they're both liberal socially, but one's a republican and the other a democrat. There's bound to be disagreement, and it's not inconsistency if they're both on different sides economically. And it wasn't for a quick laugh, he strongly disagreed and made some jokes because of that. I mean, come on, he makes jokes when he agrees with people, what do you expect? Also, if he loves the cock, what does that have to do with politics?
Alright Ron Paul is nice guy and all and a politician who actually stands by his own ideas but the guy is 76 and by the time he will be inaugurated is 77! By the end of his first term he will be 81 people...come on he is 20 years too late! In the general election he will be killed by Obama get real okay it's the presidency! Not a who is the most sincere politician race! Ron Paul did a nice job very refreshing politics for a change but he has no chance in hell.
very true. being a president requires you to travel a lot. and even though ron poul looks healthy for his age, 4 years of traveling will take a toll on him and he might not make it through his term... yet again, he does say limited government and that u.s.a should stay out of other countries.. hmm. idk. just a thought
socialists wake up every morning wishing for a master. Their is nothing less intelligent than a socialist. They practically beg to be slaves to the government because they have no common sense or they want to live in a social utopia that cannot and will not ever exist no matter how advance society becomes. Socialism = bankrupted Europe and stupidity. I can fully understand Britans longing to leave the EU.
@Sumoto999 Only one stupid is you, for talking about something you clearly have no idea what is. and btw Europe came in a crisis from the exact opposite of what you claim. As an acutal resider in Europe (I live in Denmark a SOCIALIST INSPIRED state who´s economy is doing GREAT!) The union was cracked by conservative numbskull useless economic plans. England is trying to leave because the remaining moronic conservatives in EU are trying to save Greece, so they can save their asses.
I hate you so much rigth now dude. We do not need babysitters the government shouldn't be taking care of the people liek we are fuckign babies. You are takign my money and giving it to people who are too fugn stupid to take care of themselves.
So I guess in order to not be a, "heartless bastard" I have to agree to help pay for those who gamble and lose. People who don't take care of their personal responsibility get a free ride.
Sorry folks, the deal with liberty is that you ride on your own dime or should expect to have to.
And just wondering, are people left to die in America now when they can't afford to pay for an ambulance ride and the emergency room visit?
What a red herring argument they make for Ron Paul.
Saying "I long for the time when people just took care of eachother" is just a bullshit remark from Ron Paul, I mean seriously? In America? The most individualistic society in the world CARE FOR EACHOTHER? I've seen movies of people getting shot on the street, and people just walk by totally ignoring it. America today is the antithesis of a caring society. The only people who care for eachother over there are religious cults. And they only care about the fucking ingroup.
Health insurance should be less than a 1000 dollar a year, and medical bills has to be 1/100 of the current rate. If medical bills and health insurance rates are currently cosmos numbers, it is not because that is their real rate. It is because of lobbyism of insurance corporations and also because of the lower demand. Health insurance became a luxury good. less people can afford to have it. therefore I became expensive. Why it became expensive in the first place, because of the lobbyism.
People advocating for a free marked health system should contemplate this for a second: Which is better, a corrupt,greedy and profit hungry health insurance company who only cares about money, and the aquiring of more of it; or a government that is interested in you surviving the accident so you can continue to pay taxes for another 40 years? Government might be occasionally putting their head places they shouldn't be, but I don't like the idea of a private company controlling my life or death.
And If government doesn't intervene to provide free health insurance with the money that we don't have, the price of health insurance providing by private companies will drastically dropped. It is rule of supply and demand. Government instead should has its own role to prevent these giant insurance corporations from lobbying and becoming monopolist. I think liberal are very confused and brain washed. Today, The best governing policies is provided by Ron Paul, combining Libertarian and Republican
Ron Paul says every person in society should be responsible on his or her life. Is it very hard to understand? I give an example to clear this out. If you don't buy a car insurance because you think that you would never caught by cops (metaphoric to happening an accident for a person that they re talking about), what would happen. Well, the person pays the consequences ending up going to jail. If our life is worthy to us, we would get a health insurance. And If government doesn't intervene....
@amirbk60 Being responsible for your own life is different from saying you need to use money to pay a corrupt insurance company for a slip of paper, and if you don't you better not get into an accident, because no one will care. Immoral, and kinda disgusting. Healthcare should be a human right, not like buying a fucking burger from McDonald's.
@InsanityVonMike You do NOT have a right to health care, why should I be forced to pay more taxes to support your friends surgeries because he got injured rock climbing?
@Merktime2889 Because it saves lives? You just proved how fucked up the healthcare of US really is. The owners of the health insurance companies only care about earning money, they don't give a shit about the people. And there's no government to regulate it. That's pure selfishness.
@InsanityVonMike selfish huh? what about the a family the cant afford to feed there kids and now they gotta pay even more taxes to health care, what about all the people that lost there houses cause they cant afford to pay these taxes? you friend should man the fuck up and take responsibility for his actions or stop rock climbing cause its dangerous. example i do MMA i know its dangerous and theres a good chance i can get hurt should i force you to pay my bill because of something i chose to do?
@Merktime2889 With higher taxes there will be less to pay for, especially when you have a family where a lot of the income goes to healthcare and education. Did you even think about that? Doubt it. First of all, I've already said this before - he was 8! That's not an age where you can take much responsibility. Without taxes, he'd be dead or the family out on the streets. And yes, you should be able to practice any sport, I don't mind that.
The best thing about these Ron Paul cult followers is they never really have an argument. Whenever someone criticizes Paul they only respond in ways they can like "Ron Paul loves Freedom!" or "Bill Maher is a zionist controlled NWO puppet!" Pretty sad

America was built by slave owners who wanted to be free.
Americans want religious freedom to impose their religion on everyone else.
Ron Paul has many good ideas. Social justice is not one of Dr. Paul's strong convictions. He does not support equal rights for all, nor does he champion a living wage for hard working Americans who are currently exploited by a system designed only to grow wealth for those already wealthy.
Ron Paul is good. Ron Paul could be much better. He's no Obama.
Bottom line about all you people who decided socialist medicine is now an evil thing since you saw Ron Paul talking and got swept up with fangasms like you did with Obama, and make an even bigger joke out of your broken democracy.
Bottom line: In the UK and most of EU, socialist medicine works wonderfully, if you want to be completely libertarian then you should be supporting privatized policing and water suppliers, good luck with that America
PEOPLE NEED TO SWITCH PARTIES 12 WEEKS IN ADVANCE OF THE PRIMARIES IN MOST STATES.
IF YOU DO NOT SWITCH IN TIME YOU CANNOT VOTE IN PRIMARY.
IF YOU ARE NOT REGISTERED REPUBLICAN YOU CANNOT VOTE IN PRIMARY.
IF RON PAUL DOES NOT WIN PRIMARY, NO GENERAL ELECTION ! REGISTER AS A REPUBLICAN. FIND OUT WHEN YOUR STATE HAS PRIMARIES. FIND OUT WHERE AND VOTE VOTE VOTE ! PLEASE !
WE NEED EVERY LAST VOTE ! Copy and paste this everywhere
You shut Ron Paul Off when he was reponding... If the people choose to not be responsible enough to have health insurance then they should bear the responsiblity of there chose. Why should I that works 40 hours a week near the poverty level pay more for my health care insurance to cover this guy's neglect. Bill Maher you are a rich man why don't you pay his bill ?
@InsanityVonMike well why was your friend on a cliff? if hes doing something that could potentially be so dangerous that you will need a two million dollar operation, then you should be wise enough to invest in health care.
Ron Paul used to work at a Catholic hospital for less than $10 a day, THAT'S what he means when he talks about people helping other people out. But let me be clear, he's not saying that it has to be through a religious organization, he's saying that there should be more competition in medicine and that people should be able to use alternate sources for medicine. He didn't mean that the guy down the street who knows nothing about the medical field should take care of you.
Im a huge RonPaul supporter and I love Ron Paul but true is Bill is Right. Taking care of each other. I love his foreign Policy, Federal Reserve Stands, all but this is not a good answer. I'm a realist.
@mcmelvincar NO ONE IS EVER DENIED CARE!!!! NOW already.. invest in health insurance be responsible... healthcare goes up because the government intervenes..
So these jackoffs think it is acceptable that just because someone is "young", they don't have to be responsible, support themselves, and fund for their own healthcare?!? They are taking Ron Paul's statements and twisting them to fit their criticisms. NONE OF THEM ARE HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. They know jack crap about health care compared to Ron Paul.
Fuck you Bill , I thought you were much smarter than that. Go read a fucking book you idiot....educate yourself about Ron Paul before you speak you sack of shit.
@Darusdei i think we take more criticism than any other group. think about it before you write me something stupid again. We take criticism form republicans, from democrats yet at the same time Libertarians are made up of former Dems and republicans along with independents. Just look how everyone is treating Ron Paul. Why would you want to believe people that have created the problems we are in or the people that want to continue same polices. How about you educate ourself a little
@DadoPennsylvania yes you probably take alot of criticism but you have no ability to handle it. legimitate concerns are raised about his policies and then comes the typical "you don't understand" fanboy bullshit. or something about "freedom" and other melodramatic bullshit... (ironically just what you did)
@Darusdei ironically what you say is the same shit we hear from uneducated people "Legitimate Concerns" The moment that you think you know everything and you start listening to only one side is the moment that you stop educating yourself and you become an idiot. I do support Ron Paul but I dont stop there. I am still educating myself about the Fed ,Military Industrial Complex , Austrian Free Market Economics. So just please read about these things for few years,educate yourself.
@Darusdei Of course I know you have not listened to me at all. Now you are saying "you just proved my point when I said "typical you dont understand fanboy bullshit" So if you have any serious questions or as you call them concerns about Rons policies , all you have to do is ask. Instead of thinking that you are already educated enough and just going out there attacking people like me. No wonder we get pissed of when people come up and attack us...usually it because it does not make any sense.
@DadoPennsylvania it's no wonder. fanboys get always pissed off no matter what you say about their love affair. there has been loads of critizism level about his policies straight from 1800's
"should a coma patient be let to die if he hasn't got life insurance?" and the fanboys reaction is "yes" and paul's is "we have charity" you got to be kidding me...
@Darusdei YEAH you said it right , no wonder we get pissed off because idiots like you dont know what the fuck they are talking about. Taking everything out of context , idiots that compare a whole group of people just because someone might of said something stupid, idiots that educate them self off of fox,msnbc,cnn,Rush,Glenn,Chris Wallace,Cooper. First take an IQ test, if it is over 120 then start reading Austrian economics, Gold standard,End the Fed. If its not, then good luck , and God bless
@Darusdei Great job reading educating yourself. You must of been reading Austrian Economics cuz you know so much about it. WOW ...You must be proud of yourself . Sometimes I wish I was like you (thinking you are the smartest person alive). Must be nice. You just proved all of my points about how noneducated person thinks they are already smart enough which in return makes them that much more stupid. Please do not respond to me again. You are wasting my time.
I think the direction Bill Maher's show is slightly out of his hands. Not a month before this Bill was singing Ron Pauls Praise, Paul was ON the show, and bill gave him a standing O. What happened??
Whoa, jes, Don't make fun of RP or all the RP crazy's will come and chew your ear off. I don't know if the guy walks on water. But I do know that his fans are as annoying as Pre-Teens at a twilight showing.
@mdelair420 i see it as he meant that he can do whatants regarding his insurance needs not his medical needs when he's already in a coma. These idiots are living proof that the educational system is fail. You believe you have a right to medical services and that is just not the case. You have a right to freedom and a responsibility to take care of yourself. Why should the government take care of you when you won't even take care of yourself?
@Madaxxeman I am broke and in chronic pain 24/7..Like you care.They took me to the hospital last year..No how much my heli ride was..10,965dollars,for a ten minute trip.I cannot work and i suppose i should just die because i cant afford my treatments..You are heartless and judgemental..I wish i could work and enjoy my life?Would you have me crucified as well you fuckin roman.I have paid my taxes since i was 12.I worked every day and still would if i could.Wish you could wear my shoes awhile?
Are you a Democrat disappointed in Obama? Hate neocons?
Maher's right.
Help us do something about it.
Vote for Ron Paul in the GOP primaries, and kick the warmongering neocons out of the race.
Do you really want to run the risk of a Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum or Newt Gingrich for president? Another war? No more Neocons. Show them the majority of america is sick of them.
We welcome your help. Please consider it.
Search "Blue Republican" if you want to know the game plan. Interesting stuff.
@9753zing because he doesn't want to go to war with iran and kill a million brown people, and doesn't want to give billions to superrich bankers for failing, and wants to stop sending millions of americans to jail for smoking pot?
But never mind all that he has some religious faith like pretty much all people have to have some form of to make it in politics. But I'm not getting in an argument with on this religion deal, so you win and please leave me be because I'm busy.
I'm willing to give Paul a shot. If he enters the presidency and rolls back some of the laws corrosive to our liberties, and if he cuts the defense budget mostly by ending troop deployments to places like Japan, Germany, Kuwait, and not least Afghanistan, then we'll all be better off. Ron Paul supporters have been demonized by the same people who see no problem with indefinite detention of terrorism suspects be they American or not. Those people are so ignorant; their credibility is simply nil.
Bill Maher is an incurable cynic. He will draw what he can from wherever he can to appear smart and critical. His point against Dr. Paul's health insurance question (which was a trap that he handled beautifully) was misguided at best. He critiqued Dr. Paul's reminiscence of never turning anyone away as hopeless, and labeled him a monster. Dr. Paul stands for civil liberties and personal rights. It is the hypothetical man's choice to get health care or not.
I'd be interested in counting the number of times Olbermann used the adjective "Draconian." I've heard it at least two times out of his mouth, and I avoid him like the plague.
If there was no income tax,and if there weren't many taxes, people will have more saving. For example, If a person earns 45k/year, currently government takes 1/3 of income, i.e 15k/year. Now if you were to save that 15k/ year, in ten years of working you'll save $150,000. Now I don't think I need government to take care of me if I had that saving. I'd rather have my liberty back than government behind my back.
Don't get entangled with smooth talkers, Vote for Liberty, Vote for Ron Paul.
@raazstone what about people that don't earn a reasonable amount of money? we should let them die? besides new taxes shouldn't be charge at the midle clase, but the rich people the 1% that owns more than all the people in the US combine. And for some reason middle low clase don't want that, but they want the economic crisis fixed, how?
@TheWAHTShowTV If there were no Fed Reserve to print money out of thin air then we wouldn't have inflation, prices would be market competitive. if jobs weren't outsourced & there were favorable environment for business with less regulations/taxes, unemployment would be low. States could offer good safety net for unemployed, like interestfree loan until getting hired, offering programs to update skills, etc. Also if you subsidize unemployment by giving free handouts then there'd be more of it.
@raazstone He wants to remove medicare, medicade and "welfareism".
What if someone is unemployed due to a disability and doesn't have the money, thus doesn't have health care. Do you leave them to die if they get cancer or go into a coma?
@raazstone If you are referring to the issue of health care, then you must subtract the amount of your taxes spent on public education, construction, the fire department, the police department, etc. That is unless you would like those to be privately funded as well.
@raazstone Well you see your argument is flawed on the most basic level. If people were not taxed, people would not save that money. In fact most would probably spend it on material goods of which the wealth goes out of the country. Also, there are plenty of other countries (e.g. Australia) in which income tax is higher than the US and they're going fine.(no recession) and they have liberties. And finally, Paul is homophobic, doesnt believe in evolution and hed fuck up the economy.
@raazstone It's good when you completely ignore what taxes pay for. Let's say you do get an extra 15k a yer. But now you have to pay to send your kids to school, you have to pay to drive on private roads or use other means of transportation and every other service and utility you get for free or at a reduced price. How much of that 15k are you going to be saving after that?
@raazstone What would you do during those ten years you don't have any savings? I guess that's the point... If anything happens to you then you're screwed.
@raazstone You obviously have no idea how much some operations cost. I have a friend whose stomach became a complete mess after he fell down from a cliff... it took him almost 10 years and oh, you have no idea how many surgeries, for him to recover. The government payed for it but when he asked how much it would cost him if they didn't, they said almost $2.000.000. Without the tax payers, he would have been dead today. And it's not just the healthcare that would take a beat...
@InsanityVonMike And thats fair? So you can put a gun to your neighbours head to take their money to fix you up. Can you please tell me where you live, I need surgery to fix my eye sight.
@aosseily Fair? Is it fair to put a value on a person? You shouldn't be discriminated only because you can't afford. We're all equal so stop telling yourself that you're better than anyone else only because your parents have a good income.
@InsanityVonMike But that's a ridiculous argument. You dont go to a clothes shop, walk out, get arrested the say "Im being discriminated against because I simply cant AFFORD these clothes....that's not fair". I promise you mate, if someone cleaned out your house and gave you some comparable b.s.you wouldn't be singing the same tune. (Note: I am the son of middle-income, arab immigrants and grew up in one of the poorest areas of Sydney, Australia).
@aosseily And that's NOT a ridiculous argument? How can you even compare falling down a cliff (an accident) with stealing (against the law)? I'm not even gonna argue with you...
@InsanityVonMike Wow, we are really on two different pages mate. Look, its the principle mate. I could have an accident, burn all my possessions and my house down, but I cant FORCE my neighbours to build it back up for me. In a compassionate society, we voluntarily help each other, and we get each other back onto our feet. Im for that and I try my best in that way. But with government, its done with force, and always for political reasons.
@InsanityVonMike that is because of the insurance company's prices. now if we had a free market for the insurance companies or completely remove insurance companies from the medical field, then by default the prices would be considerably lower. Its a fact that Insurance companies backed and some cases wrote the Obama Care.
@InsanityVonMike ok, and look at how many other lives could of easily been saved with 2 million dollars becuase he wasn't responsible enough to get health insurance.
@Spez718 He was 8 years old. Stop being so god damn judgmental. What makes you think that you're worth more than him? Not that the American health insurance companies would grant him 2 million dollars even if his parents could afford one, but you shouldn't be left to die only because you're not wealthy.
@Spez718 Letting people die because they have an accident isn't exactly a very moral position to hold. Yeah, he didn't have health insurance, so he should die. The most ironic thing ever is the system you are advocating actually uses more money a year than any other nation in the world, but provides shittier service. Funny, but fucking ironic. 60% of America's population is Christian, and apparently, behaving Christ-like to people is something unheard of.
@raazstone But without taxes there won't be a road for you to drive to work on. There won't be a school for your kids to attend to learn job skills. There won't be policemen or policewomen to make sure that you aren't harmed at work. (etc.)

It does not matter weather Ron Paul or anyone else wins the election, it does not change the fact that the US is the only 1st world country where health care is not considered a right, or the fact that it is 37th in health care.

@dave19941000 When did he say that? First off he has said he will gradually make reductions. Secondly it is well known that spending in education doesnt mean better quality. Same for healthcare. You equate spending with improvement which is flawed.
Jononutoob 4 days ago
@Jononutoob The first part he implies whenever he calls himself a Libertarian because that is part of the ideology, as for healthcare and education, you ae right, the US pays twice as much per capita for both compared to any 1st world nation yet is behind all others. The point is that aslong as the US refuses to accept Universal healthcare and reforms its education system to one similar to other 1st world nations there is no way it will ever catch up, and Libertarians opposes it.

This health care issue contradicts the 10th admendment to the U.S. Constitution. KNOW BOTH SIDES OF THE STORY. Health care is an important issue and all aspects of the issue need to be considered. Ron Paul treated many patients in his time FOR FREE b/c of his strong moral character as a doctor. Moral Character is the key to health care. W/out a charitable moral character, forcing people to be charitable won't last. Individuals, including those in a coma, are protected by the U.S. Constitution!

What Paul is saying here is that HE TOOK THAT RISK. He had freedom to not take insurance, to make his own, INFORMED decision. Getting hit by a truck was unexpected yes, but INSURANCE COVERS YOU FOR THE UNEXPECTED.
I usually quite like Maher, but why is it when Paul says people should look after one another, he has to take it in such a god damn stupid way?

Health insurance should be less than a 1000 dollar a year, and medical bills has to be 1/100 of the current rate. If medical bills and health insurance rates are currently cosmos numbers, it is not because that is their real rate. It is because of lobbyism of insurance corporations and also because of the lower demand. Health insurance became a luxury good. less people can afford to have it. therefore I became expensive. Why it became expensive in the first place, because of the lobbyism.

People advocating for a free marked health system should contemplate this for a second: Which is better, a corrupt,greedy and profit hungry health insurance company who only cares about money, and the aquiring of more of it; or a government that is interested in you surviving the accident so you can continue to pay taxes for another 40 years? Government might be occasionally putting their head places they shouldn't be, but I don't like the idea of a private company controlling my life or death.

And If government doesn't intervene to provide free health insurance with the money that we don't have, the price of health insurance providing by private companies will drastically dropped.

Ron Paul says every person in society should be responsible on his or her life. Is it very hard to understand? I give an example to clear this out. If you don't buy a car insurance because you think that you would never caught by cops (metaphoric to happening an accident for a person that they re talking about), what would happen. Well, the person pays the consequences ending up going to jail. If our life is worthy to us, we would get a health insurance. And If government doesn't intervene....

@amirbk60 Being responsible for your own life is different from saying you need to use money to pay a corrupt insurance company for a slip of paper, and if you don't you better not get into an accident, because no one will care.

He didn't mean that the guy down the street who knows nothing about the medical field should take care of you.

@Darusdei YEAH you said it right , no wonder we get pissed off because idiots like you dont know what the fuck they are talking about. Taking everything out of context , idiots that compare a whole group of people just because someone might of said something stupid, idiots that educate them self off of fox,msnbc,cnn,Rush,Glenn,Chris Wallace,Cooper. First take an IQ test, if it is over 120 then start reading Austrian economics, Gold standard,End the Fed. If its not, then good luck , and God bless

@Darusdei Great job reading educating yourself. You must of been reading Austrian Economics cuz you know so much about it. WOW ...You must be proud of yourself . Sometimes I wish I was like you (thinking you are the smartest person alive). Must be nice. You just proved all of my points about how noneducated person thinks they are already smart enough which in return makes them that much more stupid. Please do not respond to me again. You are wasting my time.

These idiots are living proof that the educational system is fail. You believe you have a right to medical services and that is just not the case. You have a right to freedom and a responsibility to take care of yourself. Why should the government take care of you when you won't even take care of yourself?

Are you a Democrat disappointed in Obama? Hate neocons?
Maher's right.
Help us do something about it.
Vote for Ron Paul in the GOP primaries, and kick the warmongering neocons out of the race.
Do you really want to run the risk of a Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum or Newt Gingrich for president? Another war? No more Neocons. Show them the majority of america is sick of them.
We welcome your help. Please consider it.
Search "Blue Republican" if you want to know the game plan. Interesting stuff.

I'm willing to give Paul a shot. If he enters the presidency and rolls back some of the laws corrosive to our liberties, and if he cuts the defense budget mostly by ending troop deployments to places like Japan, Germany, Kuwait, and not least Afghanistan, then we'll all be better off. Ron Paul supporters have been demonized by the same people who see no problem with indefinite detention of terrorism suspects be they American or not. Those people are so ignorant; their credibility is simply nil.

Bill Maher is an incurable cynic. He will draw what he can from wherever he can to appear smart and critical. His point against Dr. Paul's health insurance question (which was a trap that he handled beautifully) was misguided at best. He critiqued Dr. Paul's reminiscence of never turning anyone away as hopeless, and labeled him a monster. Dr. Paul stands for civil liberties and personal rights. It is the hypothetical man's choice to get health care or not.

Ron Paul may not advocate marijuana nor gay marriage but you know we will get that with him
But we will also get a better environment

If there was no income tax,and if there weren't many taxes, people will have more saving. For example, If a person earns 45k/year, currently government takes 1/3 of income, i.e 15k/year. Now if you were to save that 15k/ year, in ten years of working you'll save $150,000. Now I don't think I need government to take care of me if I had that saving. I'd rather have my liberty back than government behind my back.
Don't get entangled with smooth talkers, Vote for Liberty, Vote for Ron Paul.

@raazstone what about people that don't earn a reasonable amount of money? we should let them die? besides new taxes shouldn't be charge at the midle clase, but the rich people the 1% that owns more than all the people in the US combine. And for some reason middle low clase don't want that, but they want the economic crisis fixed, how?
TheWAHTShowTV 1 month ago
@TheWAHTShowTV If there were no Fed Reserve to print money out of thin air then we wouldn't have inflation, prices would be market competitive. if jobs weren't outsourced & there were favorable environment for business with less regulations/taxes, unemployment would be low. States could offer good safety net for unemployed, like interestfree loan until getting hired, offering programs to update skills, etc. Also if you subsidize unemployment by giving free handouts then there'd be more of it.

@raazstone He wants to remove medicare, medicade and "welfareism".
What if someone is unemployed due to a disability and doesn't have the money, thus doesn't have health care. Do you leave them to die if they get cancer or go into a coma?
convictPKlol 1 month ago
@raazstone If you are referring to the issue of health care, then you must subtract the amount of your taxes spent on public education, construction, the fire department, the police department, etc. That is unless you would like those to be privately funded as well.
Doyle251 1 month ago
@raazstone Well you see your argument is flawed on the most basic level. If people were not taxed, people would not save that money. In fact most would probably spend it on material goods of which the wealth goes out of the country. Also, there are plenty of other countries (e.g. Australia) in which income tax is higher than the US and they're going fine.(no recession) and they have liberties. And finally, Paul is homophobic, doesnt believe in evolution and hed fuck up the economy.
9753zing 1 month ago
@raazstone It's good when you completely ignore what taxes pay for. Let's say you do get an extra 15k a yer. But now you have to pay to send your kids to school, you have to pay to drive on private roads or use other means of transportation and every other service and utility you get for free or at a reduced price. How much of that 15k are you going to be saving after that?

@raazstone You obviously have no idea how much some operations cost. I have a friend whose stomach became a complete mess after he fell down from a cliff... it took him almost 10 years and oh, you have no idea how many surgeries, for him to recover. The government payed for it but when he asked how much it would cost him if they didn't, they said almost $2.000.000. Without the tax payers, he would have been dead today. And it's not just the healthcare that would take a beat...

I could have an accident, burn all my possessions and my house down, but I cant FORCE my neighbours to build it back up for me.

But with government, its done with force, and always for political reasons.

@InsanityVonMike that is because of the insurance company's prices. now if we had a free market for the insurance companies or completely remove insurance companies from the medical field, then by default the prices would be considerably lower. Its a fact that Insurance companies backed and some cases wrote the Obama Care.

@Spez718 He was 8 years old. Stop being so god damn judgmental. What makes you think that you're worth more than him? Not that the American health insurance companies would grant him 2 million dollars even if his parents could afford one, but you shouldn't be left to die only because you're not wealthy.
InsanityVonMike 1 month ago
@Spez718 Letting people die because they have an accident isn't exactly a very moral position to hold. Yeah, he didn't have health insurance, so he should die. The most ironic thing ever is the system you are advocating actually uses more money a year than any other nation in the world, but provides shittier service. Funny, but fucking ironic. 60% of America's population is Christian, and apparently, behaving Christ-like to people is something unheard of.
