    Its a noble idea to ensure that all American citizens have the ability to get health care.

    1980's repbulicans look like monsters when they say otherwise.

    If we didn't have illegals going into emergency rooms for free and we focussed on good health practices healthcare for all would be manageable.

    But hey - The muh principle crowd can continue to act like heartless children while the left soaks up all these votes. GREAT STRATEGY!!!

    Guys - opinion polls tell me 2/3 of Americans want the President and Congress to address climate change!

    As a high IQ person, we must do what the majority demand!

    There we are!

    We must continue the failed socialist policies of medicare/medicaid/ACA, because we need to get votes!

    (and he wonders why the left keeps advancing...)

    A fun thought experiment would be to observe the health care costs in this country before those warm and fuzzy socialist programs were implemented. But that might be too low IQ. Opinion polls must guide us forward

    The only HCA model I approve of is a model that covers all children being 100% covered up through like age 18/19 or maybe further if they are in some sort of higher education. Children shouldn't have to suffer because of their parents can't or won't provide them proper healthcare. However, adults can and should take the burden of healthcare upon themselves.

    problem with this is you're essentially saying healthcare is a human right (regardless of age).

    so when you promise healthcare to someone, you are guaranteeing another person's (healthcare provider) labor, which government has no right to do

    I am not saying that at all. We are all talking about children here, not adults.

    I just feel like kids can't control that their parent/guardians insurance plan may be ****ty or in some cases not having one at all. And this makes it less likely that their parent/guardian takes them to the doctor for yearly checkups, buy them medication, etc.

    I also am for free lunches for every kid in public schools. If we're going to force kids to stay there for 8 hours, the least we can do is feed them. For some kids, it may be the only meal they have that day.

    That's fine that you're for it. Just understand what that means. It means you believe healthcare and food is human right. And that means it's guaranteed by the government. And that means someone else must be forced to supply it - potentially against their will

    Actually I interpret thethe as proposing an aliance between 1,2 and 5 against 3 and 4.

    "I am your retribution."

    seems to me he is a 5, and decides proper policy based on the preferred opinions of 1, 2, and 3, who represent the majority.

    Social protection is due only to peaceful citizens; there are no citizens in the Republic but the republicans. The royalists, the conspirators are, in its eyes, only strangers or, rather, enemies. Is not the terrible war, which liberty sustains against tyranny, indivisible? Are not the enemies within the allies of those without? The murderers who tear our country apart internally; the intriguers who purchase the consciences of the people's agents; the traitors who sell them; the mercenary libelers subsidized to dishonor the popular cause, to kill public virtue, to stir up the fires of civil discord, and to prepare political counterrevolution by means of moral counterrevolution—are all these men less to blame or less dangerous than the tyrants whom they serve? All those who interpose their parricidal gentleness to protect the wicked from the avenging blade of national justice are like those who would throw themselves between the tyrants' henchmen and our soldiers' bayonets. All the outbursts of their false sensitivity seem to me only longing sighs for England and Austria.

    I bet he sings la Marseillaise in his sleep. Especially the refrain:


    Aux armes, citoyens,
    Formez vos bataillons,
    Marchons, marchons !
    Qu'un sang impur
    Abreuve nos sillons !

    rough translation: make the blood of the 4's irrigate our fields
