shut the fuck up you dumb ass bitch, i never requested that my money be used for the fire dept, it can very well be provided by a private service. cops are required to protect private property rights, thats not socialism you worthless turd. socialism will never work, neither will the pseudo-socialism you espouse.

rakrobn, economically speaking at least, the prc is actually quite laissez-faire right now, so i don’t think that’s an appropriate parallel to draw – if you’d like to see what china was like under a true socialist system, you should research the “great leap forward”
On Mar 7, 2009, rakrobn said:
Are you an idiot? You think our Fire department and Police Force should be privatized? God you are a dumb fuck.
On Mar 8, 2009, rakrobn said:
Is that why China is doing so well you dumb bitch, and they own U.S. Treasuries from our exorbitant debt?

what the fuck do you mean it isn’t bad? how many examples of failure would you like before it gets through your thick head that socialism is a stupid ass concept?

He’s pretty articulate.

I completely agree in what you mentioned I just think healthcare is not one of them. We could start by not giving healthcare to illegal immigrants who get their primary care thru the ER (non emergency).

dude we have Socialism in America already … we’ve been brain washed to think it’s so bad… total Socialism is bad … but in certain areas it can work just fine … Social security , Police force , Fire department , public Library,, stop being brain washed … government should always stay outta our business in certain things but there are some things where we need government control … we just need laws so no one person can control it all ..

No no no, get your facts straight. It won’t work, for America too nationalize healthcare it would cost 57 Trillion dollars. Why?-Population. If you add up Sweden, Brititan, and Frances populations up you still won’t get ours. It doens’t work, get over it!

Germany and France are going through stagflation, and have high unemployment. They have lost all of their best minded people because of government intervention in the economy and most of those people made the US computer industry the best.

the best healthcare system in Europe is the Netherlands one, and is much more private than nacionalized systems around

The average canadian could probably handle a medical crisis in a private sytem much better than the average american-we have less debt, less insurance premiums, etc..
WHO has consistently ranked our healthcare better than ours.Beleive me, if you have an emergency, you will get healthcare immedately. The lineups only happen if people abuse the system or in the case of specialists
I’m not saying that our system is perfect. But for the average, its better

So let me get this straight – rich people choose to leave Canada for healthcare. Which implies Canada’s healthcare is not as good as that in the U.S. At the same time, the “middle class” Canadians can’t afford to come to the U.S. for their healthcare. If they had more of their money back (because their tax rate is higher than ours), however, they COULD afford to come here.
So you’re advocating keeping the non-rich of Canada stuck in an inferior system by taxing the crap out of them?

Socialist policies will not work as well in America as those other countries. America is simply too large among other things. Not to mention those health care systems are not as unflawed as you may think, and those problems would be greatly amplified if such techniques were put to use in a larger country.

Ron Paul has many, many good ideas… he just isn’t very articulate. What do we want? We end up with slick talkers, instead of people we agree with.
