Fuck you American healthcare system

You want medical care to be exlusive...... draw your own conclusions



Do you even read other peoples post or do you just make it up as you go? Where did I say that I want it to be exclusive?

- I have stated that changes do need to be made. And that there are big issues with health care.

- I have pointed out the hypocrisy of the OP on his attitude of the "illegal Mexicans"

-I have mentioned that I have a LESS than exclusive patient population

- I have gone to foreign countries to help with medical care.

How do you get that I want medical care to be exclusive?

If this level of reading comprehension is the result of government sponsored education.... I'm scared what government sponsored medical care would do.

Dude... you have no idea what my salary is. Your self-rightous assumptions are getting old

And WTH about the comment on my caring for humanity. You have no clue.



Doc,

Spare yourself, he's pissed and assumes a lot. He's already criticized my religion (which has nothing to do with the topic at hand) and has made assumptions about my beliefs in Darwinism.:S

It is part of the SS system. It's paid for by a separate tax on employees/employers. I don't know what you mean by "entitlement program."



People commonly refer to welfare for example as an entitlement program because it is funded by the taxpayer and not necessarily by the recipient. SS and Medicare are (supposed to be) funded by the recipient and their employer. I wouldn't put SS and Medicare benefits in the same category as welfare. I don't know if the phrase 'entitlement program' was started as a derogatory term though.

I'm afraid I don't see much difference there. I pay into SS and Medicare; I will probably never use it. Same with welfare. In both cases, everyone who works pays in.

No, it would be added into all the OTHER welfare spending that is the largest part of the budget...



Our tax rate and rate of welfare spending is way lower than most, if not all other developed countries, Our military spending is greater than teh rest of the world counting the war hobby spending.

I'm sending my tax dollars to your president so he can further the hate from the world to us and kill our young heros, etc... I'd love to have my taxes pay for the poor.



Better look at that budget again... as stated above, welfare is the largest part.

I want all to have insurance and I'm self-righteous? Priceless. What we do know is that is that you want health coverage to be exclusive....draw your own opinions....

That's fluf and bullshit, as with, "It's not a perfect system, bla, bla,..... that politicians evasion type games. What I say is the problem is that not everyone has it, let provide basic coverage and figure a place to cut corners as with military costs.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>-I have mentioned that I have a LESS than exclusive patient population


Altho I have brought you into this for fun, it's not about you or me at all, it';s about the system. You may, as you get older, look back and realize that the system is Nazi, hell, even the nazis had socialized meds, so it's sub-Nazi. That Id - Ego - Superego thing might catch up.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>- I have gone to foreign countries to help with medical care.


And then come back here to advocate the denial of your own citizenry? Let me guess your party affiliation....hmmmmm.....tough one. Quit with the conscience thing.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>How do you get that I want medical care to be exclusive?


You don;t want those to receive it unless they can pay for it; haven't you been following this thread?

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>If this level of reading comprehension is the result of government sponsored education.... I'm scared what government sponsored medical care would do.

Don't worry, you can pick up the comprehension as we go.

I'm not pissed. Pissed is you thinking a poor person might get free medical care. And some wonder why I think evility comes from the church / religion / Christianity.

Darwinsim - survival of the fittest / natural selection, etc..... that i what you advocate in regard to medical coverage - san't afford it, don't get it. Can you disagree with that?

OH, I SEE, and the employer VOLUNTARILY pays into these, right? rIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIght. Unemployment insurance is welfare, as the employer is forced to buy it. You can call it a cost of doing business, but the truth is that so are taxes that go to pay for welfare. Are you too blind to see that there are several types of welfare and everyone seems to scoff at the recipients below them? Of course not, stay in denial.

Where did I say that they were not. Imagine that, using tax dollars to help people - what a watse - isn't there a war that we can fight to do more good? The rate of taxes we use to pay for services and teh ultimate svs rendered are far lower here than other indust countries.

Ah, yes....more exaggeration from Lucky, imagine that. "If you're not giving it to them for free then you're advocating not giving them anything at all"

Forgetting about Medicare/Medicaid *again*, Lucky? There *are* safety nets for those who truly can't work.

80/20 policy with a $30 copay/visit, with an out of pocket limit of $2k/year for $73/month... Farm Bureau Insurance. Now, you can go there and give someone the gift of medical insurance - working those 50 hours a week I'm sure can afford to insure a couple folks.

Actually, I was correcting YOUR misconception of what the most tax dollars go for...but thanks for playing.

BTW... nothing in the Constitution that we have to "keep up with the Joneses", either - sorry to disappoint you. I'll sure you'll be happy in your little proletariat paradise when you move to China, though....I don't think any other countries are socialist enough to suit you.

Funny, the people I see spewing the most insults and hate in the threads are....drum roll.... LIBS.

I know very well what type of place Germany is - I spent 6 years living there. I don't think it's going to be socialist enough to suit you, though.

He's not an altruist, he's a socialist, and pisses and moans and spews bile because we won't agree with him on the principle. He's the living example of the "The only reason socialism hasn't worked yet is because the right people haven't been in charge" axiom.

Have we? All I see is people who've accepted one form of government handout claiming that it's not a handout when they got it, but it is a handout if someone less fortunate than themselves gets it.

Since most money for education is collected on the local level, the only children who have received a handout are those whose parents are not paying property tax, unless they are paying the dummie's tax; aka state lottery.



Taxes are taxes are taxes. Your argument is bogus.
