Whenever I get into a discussion with someone who supports state-funded, single-payer health care, I tell them that if they like the way the DMV operates, they'll LOVE the way a single-payer system will look after their health care.

It'd be kind of fun to see an anthology of pundits (and FReepers) who specifically said he either couldn't or wouldn't do this as promised.

And he did.

AS PROMISED.

CAnada, Great Britain, most of the EU, are all socialsists nanny-states, where service is non-existent, and everything is rationed.
I differ from your opinion, though, in that DMV still has some usefulfunction, and people won't die from slow, or lack of, service!

Thank the unions, and g'umt beaurocrats, for our present predicatment in the economy. There are people getting paid to stand around and do nothing (unless you think it takes skill to turn those stop/slow signs. OSHA, EPA, and Energy Dept., Education Dept, and 90% of the functional g'umt offices are crammed with do-nothing folks.
I did get a breath of fresh air while visiting the AFRH in DC. The lady helping my father's admission told me that they got a new administrator last year. After spending time looking around, he got rid of 40% of the workforce. he said they needed people working 40 hours for their 40 hour pay!
