I'm willing to let my tax money be used to help analog_tape with his mental disability
I care about my fellow man like that
I have no mental disability. As a matter of fact I work my ass off and pay over $3,000 a month for my mortgage, my sons daycare and health coverage do you see me asking for help. No.
Hey, is your son going to go to public school? Are my taxes going to help pay for that? Should I get a say in that? Because if so, I want to see his finger-painting NOW so I can evaluate whether my money is going to be well-spent.
Or maybe I don't like my taxes being spent so that the federal government can insure the bank that holds your mortgage. Or maybe I think the police only need to be in my hood, not yours.
I think it was Ezra Klein yesterday who said, "I hear all these people yelling about freedom, apparently their most precious freedom is the freedom to not be able to afford health insurance"

You see my point?
My taxes also pay for the things you mentioned, i put plenty of money back into the economy. I'm tired of seeing people getting paid for doing nothing all day.
P.S. i'm also getting a kick out of seeing all of you defending this

This and your previous post just sounds petty. Be thankful you don't have a mental disability. Be compassionate to those who can't help themselves. Stop giving a F*ck about what others have and how they got it.

But do gloat over those that you defeat along the way...extremely important that you do this.

what about people with disabilities who are unable to work? i suppose they should just shrivel up ad die.
government does have role in providing basic safety nets for those most in need (and there but for the grace of god go all of us).

I'm getting a kick out of seeing your political agenda take a massive L.

See what I'm saying? ^^^Essential.
Exactly: politics > governance.
I am curious if this is the same phenom in parliamentary societies? I mean, we gave the two-party system in the U.S. a lot of shit (and for good reason based on our elected leaders' attitudes) but I don't necessarily get the sense that multi-party governments are any more functional.
He'll yeah I'm gonna gloat a little...policy made by anachronistic old white men with antiquated worldviews took a baby step towards death yesterday and I am happy about it. So, yes I will point and laugh Nelson muntz style. Yea it isn't a huge leap, but it's a start.

The first question which the priest and the Levite asked was: "If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?" But... the good Samaritan reversed the question: "If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?"
Probably how most feel like after a 7 year war that should have never happened, based on crappy evidence. You would have a trillion dollars right now that could have helped get your national health care going...
Forget all that people sitting on their asses shit. The fact that hundreds, if not thousands of Americans go bankrupt every day because of health care costs (Because of things like majorly inflated fees or denied health care coverage) should be more than enough a good reason.
I'm just stoked I get to see some death panels finally. I could refinish my whole living room with death panels. They would make the amber lamp really pop!
kind of assuming we just socialized medicine in America. And no, we didn't.
Erm, so what did happen?
Yeah, what did happen? If it isn't anything as radical as that, why are so many people on the right acting as if the next stop is a gulag in every town?
In terms of pure politics, the right wing is still going off the infamous strategy memo Bill Kristol wrote back during the Clinton administration that said that if Democrats pull off health care reform, the GOP will lose the middle class vote. That being the case, the right wing pulled out all the stops to oppose reform, and that means going with the GOP's strength: These sort of gut-level emotional pleas about how the end of the world is nigh.

Since you have a mortgage I'm betting you take the tax deduction for the interest you pay on it. In other words other taxpayers are subsidizing your mortgage. You pay less in taxes because of that deduction. Subsidizing health care costs is exactly the same sort of idea. This bill will help a lot of people afford health care just like the mortgage deduction helps a lot of people (LIKE YOU) afford their house.

Im getting a kick out of joining the rest of the civilised world in our chorus of laughter directed squarely at people that think just like you.
surely you have bigger things to worry about than the fact that your country wants to provide medicine for sick people?

wow, that's like super profound.

that & the ancient scribblings of superstitious shepherds
can't forget them
Really??? Not anywhere I've been to. Compared to what taxes we pay in Canada on alcohol.
Give you an example. Last time I was in the states I saw a 12 pack of Molson Canadian selling for $12 US.
That is a Canadian beer imported into the US. What is the same price for that in Canada? $20.50 CND. And our money is still at par.
Thousands of Canadians go into the US and bring back alcohol and cigs every day.
that's like Communism & shit
the Canadian Govt also has a monopoly on the selling of alcohol
Most, but not all... Quebec doesn't. And in some provinces wines and micro brews,etc...
But yeah, pretty much.
Them dudes should secede and create a Tea Party/Frenchie state where booze and smokes are untaxed and everybody bootstraps.
