Ksen is fine. He’s respectful and his posts get us thinking. That’s never a bad thing. Unless you want to live in an echo chamber forever, never having you’re beliefs challenged and never having the opportunity to learn and grow. In that case, DU is that way.

No.

And it would not be cheaper.

Any sort of single payer system is like transfusing blood out of your left arm into your right arm and spilling 90% of it on the way.

By it's very nature it will not work.

So your question is something like, "if a frog had wings would he still bump his butt when he jumped?" Frogs don't have wings so the point is moot.

One of the best bumper stickers I have ever seen. "If you like the Postal Service, you'll LOVE National Health Care".

I've seen those or some similar in the areas north of Austin. There are a few bumper stickers I'd like to put on my pickup, but I do have to travel into San Fran on the Colorado on occasion.

LOL.

Well, Ksen might get you thinking, but if you weren't a Noob, you would know that leftist trolling tricks are hardly new on FR, and the subject of single payer has been discussed many, many times over the years on FR.

Whenever it is proposed (yet again) by one of Ksen's leftist comrades in the Democratic Party and/or their leftist media buds, and is legitimately posted by a Conservative Freeper for discussion.

This "vanity" post is Ksen's way of tweaking the nose of Conservatives on FR.

FR used to be overrun with leftists who just wanted to "discuss" the same leftist plans for America over, and over, and over.

When Jim notified the leftist posters that FR wasn't a leftist discussion forum, they (and their supporters) screamed like scalded cats. Their almost unending stream of posts about their loss of "Freedom of Speech" was phenomenal, and laughable.

I still don't think they ever did grasp the fact that FR is owned and operated by a private citizen, and they have no right to Freedom of Speech on FR.

Of course, leftists never want to listen to truth about themselves and/or rules, laws, etc. They just want to be able to freely "speak (their defined) truth to power" (especially on Conservative forums, LOL).

Now, you may just be a Noob responding based upon a lack of knowledge, or you may be another troll like Ksen. I'll give you the initial benefit of the doubt, but your choice to use the middle word of your sign-up name, on a family oriented forum like FR, certainly makes me wonder.

"DU is that way." WOW, you really smoked me on that one Noob. LOL. Welcome to FR.

The muslim in the WH wants it. Not us citizens. But hell, they don’t listen to us.

[rcofdayton]

Of course I would oppose it. Running a healthcare system is not authorized by the Constitution.

[Chickensoup]

no. Rather go with costsharing and no insurance for all.
