Canada gets mentioned every time this comes up and if you say France,
you are talking about "Free" medical care ... unless you pay taxes.
The problem is that level of taxation is politically impossible here
so it would just be rampaging debt.

Canada gets mentioned as a unlikely and not viable example for the US. The
French med system isn't free. Umm... most people pay taxes, except maybe the
very, very rich, and the very, very poor.

It is mostly young people in mediocre jobs who don't buy insurance.
Those are the ones we need in the system if this is actually going to
be insurance.

Yes, but they could afford it if it's set up properly, which is where we
need to be.

You keep saying "this is where/what we need to blah blah blah, but you
have no ****ing idea how your pipe dreams could be accomplished or who
could fullfill them. You are just another silly left wing whacko.



Otherwise it is just a medical brokerage. Nobody wants to buy
insurance until they think their medical bills will be more than their
premium.

Nobody wants to buy car ins., but we're generally required by law to do
that.


He was a whacko who drove the fiscal policy of Gingrich/Clinton that
got us close to even for a year or two. You could criticize Perot for
being an egotistical jerk but his charts were right on.

Gingrich?? His "Contract on America" was just a rehash of the same bs.
Clinton mostly got things under control.

Perot was unwilling to listen to anyone. Having a good chart means very
little.

I actually saw Perot once at EDS in Rockville Md, and he fired me for
having hair on my face. Too bad I didn't work for him.


The problem is, guys who used to be making $60,000 and up, building
cars and houses are now back working... but for half that at some
menial job.

Ok, so what's your solution?

If he had a solution he would be President. Anything beats the " throw
it at the wall and see if it sticks action guy we presently have in
charge. Sorry President Barry. I love the crabs you sent me, but my
conscience dictates that I tell the truth. (gag)
