attrayant Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 What is more personal than you wanting me to pay for your upkeep?You want me to pay for your public schools and libraries? I don't have any children. Why should I pay for yours to be educated?You want me to pay for your roads and highways? Those should be funded only by people who have cars. You want me to help pay for your police force? No; they should operate on a 100% chargeback model and just send a $5000 bill whenever somebody calls them (throw in a 15% tip for speedy service on your next armed robbery!). I suppose if they're called to stop a bank robbery, everyone in the bank lobby can just split the bill. You wanting me to pay for your fire and rescue companies? Forget it. Let's go back to the days when fire battalions were owned by insurance companies and you hoped and prayed that you had the right fire medallion on your burning property. Why should I help pay for museums, public beaches, public transportation and public [fill in the blank] that I don't even use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no example in the universe of government providing goods or services more efficiently than the private sector. You may want (free) health care but it ain't free. Somebody pays. Guess you can't. I don't want to. I am British and the NHS is awesome. Ok we all pay a little bit more in tax but have free health care when we need it. It is quite sad that you have never been involved in a healthcare system that cares about people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joecoolfrog Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 11 hours ago, funandsuninbangkok said: Health Care is too important to leave to the government. Look at government housing or job training for an example of government "services" in the US. Horrible. Certainly American society should provide for the very poor who have no money and need care. Unfortunately. government has moved in and all faith based hospitals who used to perform care for indigent people are now mostly on the government tit and run by Washington. It's "You get what you pay for. " not " You get what the other guy pays to the government, then depending on how much is left, after it goes through the sausage factory, the Unions take their cut, depending on my political relationships, I got something." And yet governments worldwide are providing vastly better healthcare than the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep the Governement out of healthcare. Putting aside the incongruity of "fatties running around", let us assume that only fatties get cancer. But is it only fatties that, through the vagaries of life, can become incontinent, have children with pre existing conditions, grow old and need nursing care or have parents who grow old and need nursing care, get Alzheimer's, have an accident of any sort, get beaten to a pulp by a mugger or a drunk or a bully, catch a disease, get bit by a snake, pull a muscle while lifting something, throw their back out, get food poisoning, or slip on a banana peel. Let's let all the fatties die and the world will be free of all health related misfortune. Also, keep the government out of our police forces. Why should people living in safe, gated communities with private security pay for police to walk the streets of Harlem? T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Trump had a 'town hall' about health care, here are the parameters: >>> hand-picked Trump fans in attendance. No others. >>> Trump would be tossing superlatives around, and making preposterous promises." "Obamacare is a disaster, folks. A disaster. My plan is better in every way. You'll pay less. You'll get better services. Everyone will be covered. Pre-existing issues, no problem. And best of all, you won't be paying anything, or at least it will cost very very little. A tiny bit. Less than a cup of coffee. Believe me, folks. Everything about Obamacare is bad, everything about my program is great." .....and all the dumb-ass hand-picked 'townspeople' will clap and cheer. Trump could say he was going to personally transmit yeast infections to everyone in attendance, and they would still clap and cheer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
