Universal Health Care For All! Why do we settle for less?
Will socialism creep until everyone bends and breaks?
Here for all that time and you weren't issued the codes?

A pony.
And I want to be left alone and conversely, I want to leave others alone.
We want a completely ala cart menu of health care choices that goes across state lines that includes cash insurance with castrophic coverage with an investment plan that can build to self insurance for castrophic coverage with pretax dollars.
Pharmacists able to dispense medicine directly without a doctor’s prescription. Cough medicine, etc...
Healthcare Workers Belief Protection, no threating people’s jobs because they don’t want to perform or provide drugs to commit infanticide.

Maybe because you're actually bemoaning YOUR lack of HC Insurance. Your 'universe' is not Canada, Biafra or WOW, is it? It involves YOU paying for health care!.
Maybe because you (or your parents) never knew of the ability to see a doctor (or had the 'privilege' to have a house call) and then paid for the service (check, cash or chickens).
Maybe because you don't understand that health care is expensive because you expect it to subsidized (through insurance... because you don't understand insurance either).
YOU settle for less because that is the system that YOU have created, which you desired.
Now go away and put a poultice on it (look it up you backward/eco/socialistic/educated ignoramuses).

Pharmacists and doctors got into a cat fight over prescribing medications early in the 20th century, with the doctors eventually coming out on top. Maybe more items should be allowed “under the counter” (e.g. weak opiates) but I wouldn’t suggest treating every single medication that way.
what do conservatives want?
from the government - as little as possible.
from themselves - whatever they can farily earn.
it isn’t difficult to figure out.
While we're on the subject, has Obama commented on last night's results yet? :D
Kidding, I know he's still crying into his pillow.
