Health care reform almost at the finish line... correction: it's finished

Could I point out that quoting mad people does not strengthen your case?You started off with Investor's Business Daily, the deficiencies of which have been pointed out to you ... and then you moved on to citing something you read on freerepublic?* shakes head in bewilderment *Freerepublic? Really? If I wanted to explain the idiom "letting the lunatics run the asylum", that site would be my first choice of an illustrative example.

No. The bit where you went wrong was where you said "from the government".It is mandated that we pay the government for our police, our army, our navy, our firemen, our roads, our schools, our border control, and pretty much everything else that is considered a general public good.But conservatives have got their filthy claws so deeply in the national back that apparently the nearest thing that we can do to health care reform involves mandating that we should pay, not the government, but private for-profit companies for our health care.Yes, this is America. It's the only country so enslaved by conservative ideology that this sort of thing is even imaginable.
