The comparison is valid, it is also valid for communists, both are socialists, NAZI is the acronym for the National Socialist Democrat Party. The nationalized healthcare came along before the NAZI party but was used to do evil. No one is saying that is what the President is trying to do but the similarities are there and if you look at what the USSR did with socialized medici
[quote]Ironically your analogy is more apt when used to describe a UHC system (where private healthcare is also permitted) than a private vs UHC system:[/quote] Please read what you wrote. When did the goverment get the power to permit me to do anything with my body? You have given the government power over life and death in one statement. I don't want to give the government that power over me. What makes you think they are better at taking care of me than I am? [quote]No, tho
Don't send me your e-mail addy all the paperwork is at the publisher now. Thanks
[quote]You are a Christian and therefor can't decide to kill the unborn. If I were married, we would have a similar problem in that our choice would be limited by Jewish law.[/quote] This is why religion will be the next thing that the government will have to regulate. You must go along with the masses and to make everyone equal your religon will have to be put aside.
[quote]Actually waiting lists are formed typically by a lack of a particular resource (in the case of healthcare it'll be medical staff such as doctors) meaning you have to wait to see them. Cases will be prioritised based on need (so if it's serious you'll wait less time than someone with a minor ailment).[/quote] Partially true. At first it w
What do you have to say?
For years I have been told that we have freedom of choice and that females of any age have the right to do with their body as they please. I was told this by liberal women that demand that I pay for their abortions in the form of my taxes. <span style="font-family: Book Antiqua
[quote]Loan price 2 billion dollars.[/quote] Nitro, you will love this. When challenged about loaning the two billion the reply was that the US is NOT loaning any money. The US is just providing CREDIT.
[quote]Congrats! So, what type of book is Silent Thunder? Fiction, sci fi, military, etc?[/quote] Thanks! Silent Thunder is a fictionalized account of an operation, thee people were taken hostage by the NPA the New Peoples Army they were the forerunner of Abu Sayyaf. Our team was sent in to get them back. If anyone wants to get put on mailing list for updates from my publisher on the book send me your name and e-mail address to paladin555

[quote]The life expectancy graph was just one piece of the puzzle. It's a starting point. Since you're spending the highest % of your GDP on health care, you should logically be the best in virtually every category. Life expectancy, infant mortality, various cancers – these are just a few of the many things the US is not the best in the world at combatting. Since your government spends the most on health care, though, than virtually any other nation in the world, we can conclude that th

[quote]Even if assumed to be correct, that's an advantage of moving to a UHC system - the state would end up paying for all that litigation, and hence would likely be more interested in curbing it.[/quote] Good one, anymore jokes? It is against the law to sue the government except in very rare ocasions. You can sue for information but not damages. As a vet I can't sue because of malpractice which is why if a doctor is close to losing their license they go to work for the VA. What make
[quote]Uh, no - his op-ed article was against UHC. You must have just assumed that, in an 'instant.'[/quote] Its that reading comprehenson thng, When one is blind to facts everything they read goes their way if there is a hink that it might. Notice how he edited the article down to just what he believed it should mean and say. Going out of context like most liberals do. That is why I ignored that part of it because if he is quoting it in this way he is either lieing to hims

[quote]You really should look at the graph before doing all this arguing about it... (there are plenty of countries within a similar life expectancy band to the US, but with far lower levels of spending, which can be seen in an instant looking at the graph)[/quote] The life expectancy game is a sham. The difference between the country with the
[quote]You just can't help continuing to make a fool of yourself, can you? Insurance does not work like car washes. Again, it's all about risk.[/quote] Yes, it is about risk, it is also about what the market will stand. The risk of you getting cancer from drinking water is low in America but high in other countries where they don't have good wa
[quote]Supported by the fact that other countries (with UHC)'s healthcare spending is far lower than the US's (per person)...[/quote] Sure they do; they ration the care so only the people in productive age groups get the care so yes, they spend less as a nation per person served. the young healthy people don't require much care. you don't heal the healthy. On the other hand you do not heal the sick. a 60 year old with cancer does not get the care we receive in America. Mortality
[quote]The problem with copying and pasting my arguments against you and trying to use them against me is that they don't apply. You are the one arguing that UHC is evil because it means you have to pay for others, yet argue in favour of non-fat people being forced to pay for fat people if they want insurance.[/quote] My healthcare cost me 60 a month. Where is it that I am paying for fat people? That is medical, dental, and vision. UHC will cost everyone roughly 40% to 60% of ou
[quote]why would we be already on the whitehouse documents?[/quote] Because if your liberal brainwashed democrat reported you to them that record must stay on file for years. People that did not write the White House are reporting gettng E-mails from the administration regarding thier misunderstood beliefs on healthcare.
You know it was pointed out on Rush Limbaugh today that all White House documents must be kept for years after he leaves office. He does not need a list all he needs to do is search the archives to get us if we are reported.
[quote]Why should I be happy if I'm having to pay for you, fat or not? You can solve your 'moral dilemma' by not buying insurance and paying cash - that way you're guaranteed to be paying only for yourself.[/quote] Because he wants UHC to pay his bills, and nothing else will do for him. It is okay if we pay for him as I pointed out earlier but he should not have to pay for others unless we all chip in. You are correct D, self insurance is the way to go but I doubt he ever thought of t
[quote]I'm not in the same league, as I have only ever published articles in magazines. But editors did remove entire paragraphs from my articles and it hurt. [/quote] I published tech manuals for the Marines but never a work of fiction. Published is published my friend. I expect them to take my 296 page book and make it 50 pages. lol [quote]I've yet to finish and search for a publisher for any of my writing,[/quote] Do it! finish it and see what happens.</p
[quote]And here I am, still working on just one. Or, well, sort of working on it. I might finish it before I die.[/quote] That is how I felt after ten years of rejection letters. But I kept pluggng at it and kept sending out the letters till my publisher took a chance on me. Wow did I just write "my publisher"? it is so cool!! A word of advice make sure the book is finished and you checked and double checked the spelling. Even the day I sent it off I found mistakes and half fi
[quote]You are not making much logical sense here. People have always been thinking of ways to kill and help people. When Europeans came over to the States, they purposely gave Native American blankets that came into contact from dead people that had the plague.[/quote] Actually it was small pox but close enough.

So good luck and keep strong. JD [/quote] thanks, I have 8 more books in the can not including
