“Socialized medicine is the keystone to the arch of the socialist state" |
|

Posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Mon Mar 8 15:39:21 2010 http://socialistworker.org/2009/08/06/the-story-of-medicareNow, back in 1927, an American socialist, Norman Thomas, six times candidate for president on the Socialist Party ticket, said the American people would never vote for socialism. But he said under the name of liberalism, the American people would adopt every fragment of the socialist program... One of the traditional methods of imposing statism or socialism on a people has been by way of medicine. It's very easy to disguise a medical program as a humanitarian project...Now, the American people, if you put it to them about socialized medicine and gave them a chance to choose, would unhesitatingly vote against it. |

Why diversionary?Repealing Medicare is the logical conclusion of arguments that health care reform = socialized medicine. |

Don't know ... don't read them, don't care. But if there's a good Palin joke to be had, I'll go for it. :)As far as the post you responded to, the "cast of characters" is once again those fine insurance companies, the same ones that said MEDICARE would be all death panels, commie medicine and all the same old crap we're being spoonfed again. I *love* hearing "keep government off my medicare" ... proves that IQ's can be unsigned integers. |

So what exactly is socialist about private medical insurance? That's what reform will do.....mandate everyone give these greedy corporations their money. They are all about their profit, and only about their profit. They could give a hang about your health. This corporatist (read: republican) model is as far from from socialism as the earth is from Pluto.They are just a private death panel. You're still dead. With private insurance there's the bills you leave behind for your loved ones to pay. They're waiting to collect...... |

Yes - in high school back then, the debate topic was Medicare - pro or con. The con arguments were exactly the same as today -- and just as bogus. |

The thing that amazes me most about these wrong wingers is that they just cannot correlate how much all those people going to the emergency room with bad colds and toothaches are costing them. :-\ |

Good for you. When my son is 65, there will be no money for him. Why? Because we don't have the guts to make the necessary changes now.Unless we adopt my plan, which is to kill all baby boomers. |

Necessary changes include not misappropriating Medicare money, which was in surplus on January 19, 2001 for unnecessary tax cuts, unfunded wars and mandates.If we kill anyone, make it those responsible for tossing our money under the bus first. It WAS there, if invested then it would still be here now (A President Gore had that as the highest priority, mocked as he was for it). What became of it? |
