Universal health care is I'm a edgy teen for several reasons. Two of these are: Hey lets take more shit away from the private sector and give the federal government more power; lets make my health care as inefficient as everything else the government runs. There's several others I won't get into, but the fact is health care is going to be cheaper in the private sector because of good old competition - if the government steps in it's going to put thousands of people out of work and cost is going to skyrocket because who are they going to compete against? Canada?

Both parties are dumb, but I think the democrats are the dumbest right now - but not by far.

But making the companies fight as competitors is only making things worse, it encourages denying care.

And government has had its socialised monopoly in police, FD, libraries, and the postal system for years, they aren't charging us through the roof for those basic civilized necessities, why wouldn't they be able to responsibly handle health care?

Most people in Montana would agree with that probably.

Slurpee

what if health care were non-nationalized but federally regulated like the bank system?

isn't the reason for the current bank system that everybody was calling for nationalized banks after the great depression but roosevelt saw fit to deliver a more conservative solution?

Because health care per person is a lot more than the per person of maintaining those other types of departments. It doesn't cost $1000+ per person to have police, FD or library, and the postal system costs up front with government subsidies.

Health care is way more expensive and the government can't foot those bills without more of our taxpayer help. So you'll still be paying the same amount or more reguardless of if it's government-given or not. You're just paying for it in a different way.

Drugs are an extremely small issue. Just don't be a fuckhead and get caught and you're fine. There are far, far bigger things to worry about in this election.

Police are a basic civilized necessity?

John Mccain because he'll probably die two weeks after elected into office and then raise from the dead. We need Will Smith to run for pres, because he should be the first scientologist president.

How're they not?

Quote from: The Hero of Winds;1367468How're they not?

You're implying that it's impossible for a civilized society to even exist if they don't use one specific system of upholding the law by brute force just because we've used the system in every culture to date. It's a bit narrow-minded to think things can't work at all without them.

I'm not voting.  

I may change my mind and write something crazy on my ballet, but legitimizing a corrupt system just isn't in my interests.

Even if all but 1,000 people in the US didn't vote, they would still count those 1,000 and elect a president based off them. All they would do is put out more shitty pro-voting junk in newspapers and on TV. I don't get what people are trying to accomplish when they don't vote, the government isn't ever going to change this system. Suck it up and vote for whoever the least shitty candidate is, in your opinion.
