A Short Course in Brain Surgery

The American fools deserve to get free health care like this after electing a foreign muslim socialist as their dictator tryant leader. America is in serious trouble and soon will fall to a foreign power...Obama is a muslim and we all know what muslims are.

This is some funny stuff here.  The current health care reform does not involve "government-run health care." It relates to payment of insurance for private care. The VA is the only care that is government-run. Folks should get their facts straight before offering such "strongly held" opinions.

You are off your rocker and babbling the Democrats talking points. What is being pushed is either outright gov't takeover of health care or a phased in gov't takeover through incrementalism by destroying private health insurance through regulation. Either way, the American people lose and big marxist government grows bigger, now with complete control over your very life.

Anyone who wants Obamacare should go to ANY VA facility and just sit for one day with your mouth shut and your eyes and ears open. Those who get care from the VA receive excellent medical care. However, the clerical staff are all civil servants and most come with a builrt-in attitude from hell. The waits are long --- I was wait-listed for 3 years for a brain MRI and waited 6 months for sahoulder surgery. AND I HAVE THE HIGEST PRIORITY AT TH VA because I am a Combat-wounded vet)

Hateblade, there is no such thing as "public charity." Charity, by definition, is someone giving to another VOLUNTARILY.

When the government seizes taxes from your wages, at the barrel of a gun, that is theft, not charity.

EVERYTHING the gov't gets involved in gets more expensive. Everything. Part of the reason health care here is so expensive is because the gov't is so involved already.

We're Cdns living in the US and we feel "lucky" to pay $350/month for the privilege of SUBSIDIZED HMO insurance....and that's on top of taxes. This is a worst case scenario but why aren't you hearing from the milions of people who are treated for health issues every single day and who aren't drowning in debt or sacrificing futures for hlth care. THIS IS PROPAGANDA pure and simple. Ask a Candadian what they think about this video & they'll laugh.

RayINURay, I've heard how much you Canadians pay in taxes to support your socialist nanny-state, and that makes ME laugh.

Actually Canadian and US tax burden are similiar. Conisder this: I made the equiv to around $93,000USD last year and paid a combined income tax rate of 25%. I friend of friend who lives in Dallas pays almost 300% higher property taxes than what I pay
