William Penn -- Cancelled (Page 21/22) williegoat JAN 26, 03:34 PM Universal healthcare would be an additional economic burden on the middle class. It would also increase the opportunity for corruption and nepotism in both the public and private sector. Nationalization of the healthcare industry would be another step closer to Fascism. Obama’s ACA already demonstrated all of the above. williegoat JAN 26, 03:52 PM Remember that the Left does not want to fix anything. If they actually fixed everything, we would no longer need them. The politicians would need to find honest work. olejoedad JAN 26, 05:43 PM What's the old saw.....If there's money for research, there will never be a cure...... I don't necessarily agree with that, but I do know people with diabetes that struggle to make ends meet.

Or heart transplants? Or any of the thousands of other medical cures that have been developed through research?

Why? quote Originally posted by williegoat: Nationalization of the healthcare industry would be another step closer to Fascism. How? Why? Every other industrialized coountry on Earth has some form of universal health care. Are you claiming that all f those countries have fascist governments? quote Originally posted by williegoat: Obama’s ACA already demonstrated all of the above. No it doesn't because the ACA is not a single payer universal health care plan. The ACA helped. That is why Republicans will never repeal it. But how the hell do you link the ACA to fascism?

The politicians would need to find honest work. Why does this logic only apply to one party? olejoedad JAN 27, 01:37 PM quote Originally posted by BingB: WTF? Never heard of polio? Or chemotherapy? Or heart transplants? Or any of the thousands of other medical cures that have been developed through research? You could at least quote the entire post, which put what you quoted into context. My point was that diabetes research needs to be pushed (along with healthy lifestyles to help prevent disease), but you chose to not do that. randye JAN 27, 10:37 PM quote Originally posted by BingB: In the present we still need government agencies to force compliance and enforce regulations. The fight is still ongoing. A LEFTIST'S solution to any problem is government. A LEFTIST'S answer to any failure of government is more government. ray b JAN 27, 11:08 PM quote Originally posted by randye: A LEFTIST'S solution to any problem is government.
