I disagree with you and therefore you should leave the country.

[LotusSutra]

Big deal is that there are millions of people in the country that can't afford healthcare and that a universal healthcare is best for everyone. If you've ever actually had healthcare problems it becomes a massive hassle dealing with insurance companies and hospitals that won't give you your treatment or overcharge you for it, and nobody is saying that you're not allowed to have your own personal insurance to supplement it.

Please show me where there is a *nationalized* fire department or nationalized police force and I will show you a police state.

Youre intentionally mixing up the issue with something that is not related in an effort to muddle the conversation with your irrationality. If you were intellectually honest you would recognize that there is no such thing as a national police force nor a national fire department in America. Brain dead creeps like you want to hand control of your life togovernment

please make the government stop taking my tax dollars for fire, police, paramedics, water delivery and protection - this man should be able to afford his own insurance for those services.

We don't need the government in there we can negotiate with private fire, police, ambulance insurance companies and their departments ourselves or with our lawyers

If his house catches fire why should I have to pay guys to put ir out? Let the market decide at the time the service is needed - army too.

Again, your information concerning the present Health reform is in error. You haven't read the bill or watched any of the hearings.

So why is this guy against healthcare for Vets? Why is this guy against healthcare for the old, Medicare? How many Insurance CEOs has anyone ever voted in?

[ThunderAppeal]

So perhaps instead we should create a nation of the infirm. So rather encouraging business to give people an opportunity to help themselves lets redistribute that wealth with still more government beauracracy and meddling. If you want that kind of system move to the uk or canada.

[ThunderAppeal]

If you want a canadian type health care system move to canada. Whats the big deal?

[Boomer1949]

Guess this guy is all about the money.

From your post I assume there is some kind of known(to you) limit to making profit. How do you establish such limit? What is "human welfare"?
