I think when most people here Universal Health Care, they think that nothing will change except the government will pick up the tab when they go to the doctor/hospital (not that I’m okay with that either). I don’t think they realize just how involved the government gets in the process and many of them are enthralled by the idea of never paying for check-ups and hospital visits. This socialist welfare mentality has to stop, unfortunately it has taken us nearly a century to get to where we are so the prospects of changing so rapidly are grim.

Excellent videos. Not only inept, but evil, when it’s against the law to pay for your own. That’s Hillary Health Care. Doctors and patients who tried to go outside the system would be subject to prosecution for bribery. Pie-eyed libs don’t know what they’re asking for.

In Hyannis, you can get North Carolina cigarettes for $3.00 a pack.

Of course these people are criminals by edict of state power, other than than, they are making people happy.

If we had a national health care plan in place as envisioned by Sen. Kennedy, do you think someone his age and physical condition and having the same brain cancer would have been able to receive under the plan the sophisticated brain surgery the good Senator just received or even had the choice of going to a specialist in another state?
Sorry for the litteral answer to a hypothetical question.

Not a problem -- the political class have already allocated themselves healthcare, retirement, and a raft of other benefits you and I will never see. Don't think for a moment that they will not get the BEST health care available while the tax-cows die in the ERs. After all, there's lots more tax-cows where we came from, but there's only so many royals!

All of the aforementioned is paid for by us, the serfs, but don't you dare open your mouth and question them...
