The swedish(socialistic-ish) model is pretty sweet. Makes everyone happy.

@kubrickzghost Reagan also gave millions of illegals amnesty and increased the deficit every year he was in office. Do all teabaggers suffer from amnesia? Haven't they heard this Republican bullshit before? I guarantee you your republican heroes will increase the deficit. After all, they are professional liars. You'll see in a few years. Businesses create jobs. The government only "temporarily" stimulates job growth through either tax cuts or government spending, creating deficits.

@metalreign81 Hey idiot... Reagan created 40 million jobs. Reagan made this country strong. Everything you have today that is great is because of Reagan. Otherwise you might be speaking Russian right now.
Socialism will never happen in America. Too many Americans in the way of those 600 tyrants ruling over the public.

Its kind of sad and kind of funny to here people rambling on and on about socialism.
The Reagan Administration had more protectionist trade policies than all the other post-war administrations combined
His administration poured huge amounts of capital into the steel industry, the automotive industry, high-technology industry (Remember the "Star Wars" program). This is just another fine example of "rugged individualism" at its best.

I would support malpractice reform and tort reform if the other side were willing to allow for the creation of the public option. Politics is all about compromise, its not about me getting my way, or you getting your way. Its what can we do to compromise and find a happy medium.
I don't see anyone on the right offering any solutions how to fix the problem of over 40 million Americans probably a quarter of which are children, going without coverage.

My mother works for the state (part of probation & parole). She gets her insurance through the government and is better covered than anybody making a comparable salary in the private sector.
Remember Ronald Reagen, when he was governor of California he used to go around reading somber speeches, written for him by someone else,
and he would claim in these speeches that if Medicare was passed we'd all be telling our grandchildren what freedom was like. Sound familiar?

People don't understand that gov't and too much insurance is what drove up costs in the first place. Lobbying + government = corporatism. That is what has made the companies lazy. Also, we need to address the costly government regulations, the malpractice costs, the abuse of insurance. The public health option is NOT going to solve much. We need to address the problems, caused by the government, that made health care expensive in the first place. Then maybe you can talk about a public option.
Lol dude... You can call the president a Socialist, but you can't take getting called an extremist yourself, eh?
Now, you say you want to deter monopolies, which are the same problem as a "trust" which the largest banks in America currently hold, amongst other problem industries. You're calling for a lack of regulations, that's where it's fair to call you out.
Finally, since you've taken this argument to some immature extremes, with the name calling and whatnot, I'm dunwitcha.

The Republican Party: The party that feigns empathy for free markets and less government power while screaming at the top of their lungs whenever they lose. Infested with evil doers, mentally ill conservatives, voter fraud, racists, intolerant, deregulate and spend on the rich, fascists, radical religious fundamentalists, anti-choice, liberal haters, anti-atheist, anti-first amendment, hypocritical, projecting right-wing pigs. Do not trust these people. Crush them, destroy them. Vote them out.
