Why does society have to take care of me? The Great Society was an

idiotic
idea in the beginning and has turned into a massive money wasting

failure.

Shouldn't I be allowed to take care of myself? Why do you want to

make
decisions for me, you don't have my best interests in mind.

Bert

Sure I do! Why are you so paranoid?



Why are you so defensive?


And why does he defend his arguments with so many woulda', coulda',
shoulda's.



Because....he is a typical liberal. Offer excuses. Do not offer solutions
other than "throw more money at it". :-)

If you look at our spending on education, including the increases we see
year after year, you would think that the state of schools/learning would
improve. Not so.

Don is a liberal who depends on the government to solve his problems and
support him. Very typical and very sad.

You mean that it won't? Gosh I am so disillusioned!


Take a peek at the *health* of Don's government run healthcare system in
Canada. Another socialist program gone bad.

Do you see a trend?


Is that true Don? I thought that you told me that the United Nations voted
Canada as the best place to live?

That can't be true can it?

Gosh, that could sour my dream of immigrating and living in Canada.

Please don't let it be so!

If we had a fraction of the money spent on health care in the US our system
would be the Rolls Royce of the free world.


I wonder what the actual proportion (monies spent) is as compared to
population?

The problem with our system is that the federal gov't keeps dropping their
fair share...leaving about 80 of the costs on the province's back. When it
all started..the split was closer to 50/50.

It's like buying a few more dozen bilge pumps for a leaky boat. The pumps
might keep it afloat for awhile...but it's still a leaky boat
that'sventually egoing to sink.

That so?
What kind of 'great society' is it that can't even take care of all it's
members health needs without putting them on the verge of bankruptcy.


Do not forget that goverments do not actually produce income. Why is it
the job of government to take care of everyone's health needs?




What
are you worried about...that someone may regulate your exorbitant fees??

They sure did...two years running until a Scandinavian country knocked us
back a peg.
Wonder where Texas fit in on that scale?
You can immigrate here if
a/ you have any marketable talents
b/ you leave your guns at home
As a matter of fact...if you end up with another 4 years of George W, I'd
recommend you apply early to avoid the rush.

Despite your absurd assertion below the goverment still does not produce any
income, they confiscate money from those that produce income.
