So what if you don’t like the conditions in the hospital? Where else are you going to go? This hospital is the last (and only) stop. You can’t opt for another place and then just pay out of your own pocket. The government has capped financial upward mobility. There is now “income equality.” And that means nobody has the means to buy their way into a different (or better) situation. And even if you could, one doesn’t exist. The state provides it all. You’re stuck.

“...Split pants are (or at least were, back then) pants the children wear that are open in the crotch area. That allows them to urinate or defecate unobstructed, onto the street or wherever they may be....”

and

“...we would experience the amazing culture of China, in several different cities. And some things stood out to this germophobic American. I watched a man hock up something from his chest and spit it on the floor, right next to us, in a restaurant. ...”

Yeah... that SURE is an “amazing culture” they have there...

Crapping and urinating in the streets, and chunking lungers in a restaurant.

Hey! I Got an idea! Let’s Bring it HERE!!!!!!!

Oh, wait... we already have San Francisco. Never mind.

Britain’s NIH has already said it will not treat the elderly or those with underlying conditions, once care becomes rationed
“ Three Wise Men” bureaucrats will decide who gets lifesaving treatment, which now is 4 weeks or more on a ventilator

He’s right. Nazi Germany had universal single payer healthcare too. At least until the Nuremberg laws excluded Jews.

Very good read and yet, there are 705 billionaires in the United States, 285 in China, 146 in Germany, 102 in Russia, and 97 in the United Kingdom.

San Francisco declared an emergency. They KNOW that those thousands of homeless defecating on the sidewalks and living on the sidewalk are a petrie dish waiting for an infection to come along.

I wouldn’t put it past them to IMPORT an infected Asian just to get it started, so they can blame the President.

The problem with “free” is that somebody is paying for it, and the bureaucrats are getting a healthy cut, and the politicians are getting a healthy kickback.

When the somebody who is paying for it figures out how to minimize (or avoid) paying for it they will do so, until nobody is paying for it.

At that point everybody starts yelling and jumping up and down and pointing fingers and eventually chopping off heads and sending people off to camps and firing squads.

Think of it as socialism in action.

A bunch of useful idiot Americans will vote for any socialist democrat in SCarolina today, but a huge number will vote directly for socialism, casting their ballots for bernie.

You read my mind, Padre... :^)

They want to tank the economy, to hurt Trump. And by extension, hurt ALL of us.

In American “elderly” begins at “receiving social security” age.

We are the ones they want to wipe out. That’s the socialist plan to control costs.

This should be required reading for every literate left-leaning individual in our nation. Those who need it most will never see it.

We were there a few years ago on a tour and most of the toilets were holes in the ground you squat over. You walk through urine and other stuff and no toilet paper (take your own we were told). Where’s the sink to wash we ask. Response is a head shake no.
On the streets people sell live frogs hopping in netted bags, some small live turtles in some for food. My friend warned me not to go down one street because there were sad dogs in cages. No birds in big cities due to pollution.
Medical care consists of herbal teas and ground up weeds of some kind. And we sit and wonder how this ever started in China?

My memory is that the commies used work crews at the point of a gun. They didn’t tolerate lazy welfare leeches. And the sick and infirm died quietly in the night.

But if you don’t like the state of healthcare in this country, just remember that not ONE Republican has their fingerprints on it. NOT. ONE. Your current state of healthcare was voted on unanimously and signed into law by DEMOCRATS only.

I guess it make some people feel better to delude themselves this way.

Our current healthcare system has developed over the last 80 years under both Democrats and Republicans.

Sure, the ACA only had Dem support but it really only addressed the way insurance is purchased in a small part of the market and expanded Medicaid.

The vast bulk of our healthcare system, including the delivery and employer-provided insurance, wasn't really changed.

Write an editorial for Free Republic. I’d love to read it. Pictures would be awesome if you were allowed to take any.
