Humans dont care about humanity.
We are far too greedy and selfish.

  • We don't need more taxes. End the wars and save billions, end the war on drugs and view drug use as a medical illness rather than criminal act saving billions more on DEA funding an incarceration. Lower taxes and people can afford health care. That's how it should be.

  • he kinda looks like steve austin, or that other guy who plays in movies

  • @Satanicallyfree Could you explain where in my responses I described a "philosophy" and where I claimed that someone makes trade decisions for you. Your claim that tax money does not generate knowledge is grotesquely stupid when made on the Internet, which was developed with US tax money and on the World Wide Web, which was developed by European tax money.

  • @Satanicallyfree DDT is not a fertilizer. Food is not free if you have to invest significant amounts of time to collect, hunt or farm it. As a side note: hunter and gatherer societies are not sustainable as population counts increase (see mammoth, whale etc.).

    There are few places where food is more expensive than in the Third World, where human resources are wasted on ineffective farming and are not available to advance society in science, research and information age technology.

  • @Satanicallyfree, great timing!!! It only took six months for your response.

    Funny how you only use the USSR (which is not even the USSR any more) as the preface to your argument. This is such a failure that anything else you have to say means nothing. You fail to mention Canada and the UK and how their health care programs leave ours in the dust. Our government has let this industry rape its citizens. Since this is a Democracy our government is made up of its citizens, not a few individuals.

  • @brokensoul70 The government is blocking competition by allowing the existing companies to put up so many barriers to entry. If it were free it would be cheap and everyone could afford it because it would be vastly more abundant the more supply you have to meet the demand the lower the price goes. It is giving up more freedom to just let the government take over like a crutch on an industry so large it is impossible for it to effectively manage it to any decent extent.

  • @brokensoul70 any study of the USSR shows what the result of socialized medicine is slow and barely decent service. After all the government is only human and made up of only a few individuals.

  • @brokensoul70 Healthcare is not a right. You have the ability to go and get healthcare.You have the right to eat, live and be free and happy as every human does. By designating it as a right you are insinuating the government should step in. (what it wants) Healthcare is a priviledge of advanced nations.The problem you are encountering is corporate control.The solution is to decorporatize it.Allow more people to go into business. This would drive the cost down to where everyone could afford it.

  • @mbruck77 you mean those same fertilizers like DDT? that is now illegal? Government are made up of people a very small number of people as science teaches us the more people working together the more knowledge we gain. What's funny is that in 3rd world nations food is free. Only in advanced nations do you have to spend your hard earned money just to nourish your body.

  • As we gain more knowledge and understand life the causation of famines becomes clear. It's all about information and learning.
