No, just saying you can never get rid of entitlements. Once the government regularly gives someone something, they get addicted to it. They may demand more spending and taxes, they may demand someone else be cut. But they wont tolerate the government ending their benefits. In fact more and more will want to be included, like with SCHIP. People including Republicans prefer something that looks free.
Your example the British, you wont see them calling to end the system.
What entitlement? 0bamacare is bringing in vast new taxes(of up to $1 Trilion), will put people in jail for not not joining, and is guranteed to give most Americans worse health care than they had before.
I don;’t see how most Americans are going to like that.
” Once the government regularly gives someone something, they get addicted to it”
Exactly what is the goverment “giving” most Americans here?
A much WORSE health care system, accompanied by huge new taxes, and jail terms for those who fall foul of the healthcare system.
Heck, even the liberals are up in arms over the Senate healthcare bill. Where are the benefits for most Americans at?
“But they wont tolerate the government ending their benefits.”
It's more like most Americans won't tolerate the government screwing up the great health care system they had before 0bamacare came and screwed it up.
You have it the wrong wat round.
” In fact more and more will want to be included, like with SCHIP.”
For the illegals aliens, the welfare queens , the lazy, and the ne'er do wells, sure. For most Americans (who have the world;s best healthcare sysrtem right now)? No.
“Your example the British, you wont see them calling to end the system.”
The British have a Queen too, and they are still NOT calling for an end to the monarchy. That doesn't mean America wants a Queen/King here.
We got rid of King George long ago, and fought a bitter war to remove any allegiance to any King.
The British don't know any better. They have had the NHS like forever. Americans on the other hand, have had private healthcare for eons. We know a screwed up 0bamacare system when they see one, and Americans are up in arms right now. Look at how the anti-0bamcare Tea Party is polling better than the Democrats right now. That is umprecdeneted for a “party’ that only started a few months back, to be out-polling the party that controls the White House and both houses of congress, and won everything just a year ago.
The Democrats are gonna pay a very high price for this suicidal act.
