Subject: RE: BS: Nationalized Healthcare, good? bad?
That's as may be McGrath, but reasoned dialog, facts and proof beyond a reasonable doubt have been even LESS successful in "moving things forward". How would you characterise someone who continually refuses to accept that which has been conclusively proven to be a fact?? But perhaps "idiot" IS to harsh. How about "moron"?
1. polls show that the majority of Americans do not want the kind of health care program you have in [Britain].
Absolutely false. More disinformation.
2. . I believe, however, if you are correct, we would have had a single payer program like GB and Canada and many other countries have, many, many years ago.
Also, absolutely false. Nothing to do with Constitutionality. The reason we don't have decent health care like the rest of the world is the shibboleth of "Socialized Medicine" scaring the crap out of the ignorant and lobbying by the AMA and Insurance interests that has gone on non-stop since the 1930's.
How believe that nonsense in the face of conclusive proof to the contrary is a source of perpetual wonderment to me.
