uh no.

havent you read the bible dude?

obv not

okay, im actually not trolling for once right now

why the hell would an obama campaign delegate claim to be a physician at a town hall meeting... when she isnt?

doesnt this type of stuff worry you guys about the incumbent party? like yeah, libertarians are paranoid blah blah blah, but why all the deceit from these people if theyre looking for our best interests?

I don't support democrats but I think we should do everything possible to secure a public option for health care. I don't think that a public option is enough. I would like to get rid of private insurance and just have a single payer system.

From what I saw it was just Dawson's Creek with vampires.

Wouldn't it be better to just make more regulations in regards to those who can't afford health insurance and stick to the current system that already works, rather than start a new system that's bound to collapse on itself just because of a few small issues?

You are aware that, regardless of being a private industry, the American health care system is superior to many of the socialized healthcare systems of nations you mentioned as bastions of Social liberties, right?

edit:

I mean, why cut out the element of competition when you can just modify the rules and make them more fair. If everyone won in soccer, then players wouldn't train so hard, and the overall caliber of the sport would decrease.

thread needs to listen to born against.

Thread needs to listen to Celeste morelike. Nihiliste(s) is seriously ****ing epic.

dream on.

We're dealing with people's lives not a soccer game. I don't trust the market to take care of people. A lot of people with health insurance still get ****ed over. Thats not fair. The point of those companies is to make money not to take care of you. Everyone deserves the same healthcare. Theres a lot of things wrong with our system and it isn't the best in the world at all. The current system is collapsing.

This thread gets all political way too often. What happend to good old emo talkin'?

I'm glad you got my point. :rolleyes:

More often than not doctors work very hard to help patients. It's not just for the money, though it is a motivating factor. Incentive to work harder, especially when people's lives are at question is a positive, I don't get how you could see it otherwise.

And lol, I'd definitely trust doctors over a corrupt government run by lawyers who run Double Dutch Rudders with our extremely corrupt banking system.

That's why I'm talking about regulation, as opposed to just Socializing everything. The system the Obama administration is working on is not long term. It's just an easy way out.

Well yeah, but if people were to follow Huckabee's system that he worked out in Massachutesettes You know, subsidize those without healthcare who can't afford it, with credits for healthcare exclusively. It helps those in need, AND it stimulates the economy, thus increasing the well being of everyone in the nation.

IDK if you got the memo, but not everybody who's wealthy is a scumbag, and there's a lot of wealthy people who want to help others.

I never said there weren't things wrong with our system. Nor did I say it's the best in the world. I said it's better than a lot of the places you mentioned.

[quote]The current system is collapsing.[/QUOTE]
If we were to modify it to fit the current issues of our society, it would more than likely flourish.

I'm gonna go camping, but Jesus Christ kiddo, learn to be less assumptive about everybody who has different views than you.

Mixing private business and public service is always a bad idea. School systems, for example.
Privatize all health care.

crush teh fashest stait.

Anybody dig Mohinder?

mohinder is ****ing awesome. i love them so much.

Cool, I grabbed the discography a while ago. It's all pretty good.

Mohinder are really good.

I realize my dislike for modern emo every time I look at a live picture of Comadre.

What's wrong with Comadre?

their lyrics get really cheesy and the kids that like them

i like comadre.

hipsters do blow.

Grunge, thrash? what the **** are you talking about?

And when I do go to shows those kids aren't there because I can tell by the band playing if xtreme n00bz shall be there.

[QUOTE=flesh;17446653]their lyrics get really cheesy and [B]the kids that like them[/B][/QUOTE]

always the best reason to dislike bands

i think the first reason was enough to explain why i dont really like them

except thats youre a california kid and an ultra snob

so thats probably not the actual reason you dislike them

im a california kid. yup.

"we'll take the scene and burn it down. reclaim the love, take back the sound"

and those lyrics are worse than any other hardcore lyrics how?

i try to avoid cheesy lyrics. i dont get whats so hard to get that i dont like that band.

youve probably never even heard them

Martin is jaded after only a couple years of hardcore. lol.

Watchmen movie was hard as hell.
