`So Ilkan, you have now made it personal. I have no intentions of forcing anyone to do anything. You seem to be deluded in labeling me as someone that wants to shove something unwanted down their throat. Take the Obama medical reform plan before it was crushed in conference. It always allowed people to keep their current insurance or change to an insurance of their choice. I was in favor of that. It also offered a public option which would allow everyone to have some kind of health insurance, and also keep the private sector on their toes with pricing. I get called a comie fascist for this??? THis smacks of brainwash from FOX news or the far right. I just don't get what is wrong with this program. The only ones with something to lose are the insurance assholes that are screwing us over completely. Please tell me you aren't so selfish as to deprive 50 million people of medical insurance over a 2.5% tax. Think about health and see if you can't really admit it should be a right, not a priveledge of the rich. The current health care situation can not be sustained. There are 50+ million un-insured and growing, millions are going bankrtupt over medical bills, and you and those on the right favor the status quo, or actually, the insurance companies, and I'm a commie. This is complete insanity
Health Insurance shouldn't be a right. Its something you work for and earn. All of America shouldn't have to foot the bill for the people who fucked up in life. Its not our fault.
I mean, there are always those situations where people need some
help. Shit happens in life that we can't control, and some people
are dealt bad hands in life....
But I'm talking about all the lazy fucktards who don't want to get off their ass, get a degree, and a decent career that provides good health insurance. They want to sit at home and pity themselves because
of the life they have, knowing they can do something about it.
thats the problem now, America thinks everything should be a right.
I don't. I say get off your ass and work for what you want in life,
don't expect the government and the citizens of this country to
take care of you or feel sorry for you because you decided to
drop out of high school and work at Mickey D's.
That's the problem with some of the poor people of America. They see successful people with all of the things they have acquired through
hard work, and feel that even they are "entitled" to it although
they haven't worked to get it themselves. So they expect a
handout, instead of a handup to get themselves going.
They expect everything to be given to them because they
think its a "right". They feel entitlement for everything the
successful person has in the name "equality".
Bullshit.
Get off your ass and don't expect everything to be given to you
because you feel sorry for youself. (not directed at you MM, just in
general)
I do think health care is expensive, and that costs should be brought down, but not through the government. They fuck up everything,
and I don't see why anyone would want to put their health in the
hands of the government. They don't give a shit about your health,
just how fat their pockets get from screwing you over.
Not saying pharmaceutical companies and insurance companies
don't fuck you over, but the government is going to do it with a
20" dildo if we let them.
Just my .02.
