yes, my problem with the public option is a matter of ideology. personal responsibility and the supremacy of the rights of the individual are important enough that the intrusion of government into the private sector should be seen as a court of last resort. when limited regulation is all that is really required, such intrusions are nothing more than a power grab. the liberal agenda, including the public option, is one of expanding the influence of government and the majority while decreasing the rights of the individual and the abilities of private sector industry that enable the individual to succeed.
You see Under, That is the problem I have with your Ideas, They are limited to what "you" see as true, which may affect you and your life, which would be just alright with me, except you want to force those Ideas on everyone else. Like just eat right, take care of yourself and pay for your own medical. Now that may work in an Ideal world, unfortunately we don't live in your utopia. There are millions of people in this country (Don't get me started with the world) that can't change their lifestyles due to circumstances beyond your limited structure. By instituting a singlepayer system of medical care, we could ensure that the least of us could have credible medical care. Your sniveling about having to chip in is characteristic of right wing stinginess. I know not if you are a Christian or not, I doubt it, but, Christ would insist on medical care for all. I'll postulate that overall, Medical expences would actually go down per capita, and by eliminating a few silly expenditures like the tax cuts for the rich and cutting military spending by a few hundred billion, Yes keeping the tax cuts for the rich is an expenditure, 70+ billion per year. I realize our Ideas are like oil and water, they do not mix, and I respectively aknowledge that, But this is an Olive branch, maybe to extend to you as you have said you extended to me once, I have no recollection of that, could be a touch of senility, plus I am not that volatile in my responses as I once was, Maybe I am growing up, maybe not. Anyway, sometimes when you start with the anti-liberal rants, I can't help myself. There are different stages of liberalism, and just maybe I am in a more conservative stage than some, I'm sure more liberal than conservatives, but I've never had anyone give me one damn thing, SS is an earned entity, If I live longer than my input, call that interest, my small annuity is also an earned thing. We took retirement instead of wage increases.
Forcing ideas????????????? WTF do you think healthcare reform is???? I call it forcing something on Americans that the majority of them don't want!:dunce:

Medman runs to the mods all the time because of my posts...............and they are rarely that offensive.:sad:
He can tattle on me all he wants and I won't loose one wink of sleep.

Meddie can dish it out. But has issues with taking it.

Most bullies don't like to be pushed around.

I've had several of my posted replies to medman "mysteriously" disappear and I think a certain mod has even pm'ed me and told me to leave him alone.:sad:

All of you are some of my favorite members- some of the best from both sides, don't be tryin to complain about eachother-you can call me whatever make fun of me however and you won't see me tryin to report a post or get anyone banned, it's good especially if its origonal or funny or makes a good point, it's part of what makes this forum intresting and fun. if everyone agreed with you or no one pissed you off or had a diffrent point of view this would suck

Can I get a rebuttal for my own post? From either side? Looking for a debate on the actual politics of the US not quite the psychology of liberals and conservatives.
Wrong thread, dude.

If you wish to discuss the pitfalls of MessiahCare, there are many other threads out there.

This is a sock puppet thread. Anything goes.

johnnyorganic is a redneck to the tenth power.
More empty words, eh?

One day you'll put your shoes on and the banjo down, and step off your Momma's porch.

You'll tell Brother-Uncle-Grandpa-Dad, or Bug-Dee as he is affectionately known, that you can't spend all playing 'Dueling Banjos' with him any more because you need to get a job.

Isn't your hand getting tired working that sock puppet?
