If socialism is society providing healthcare for all and not government ownership of all assets, then I must be a socialist, which by the true definition I am not.
And the way I read it, so was Jesus by that definition. Why aren't Doctors, Drug Companies, and Insurance Companies, who have the assets and control the healthcare delivery in our country through political donations and activity, pushing for adopting the Kaiser Permanente method of healthcare delivery? The anwer is obvious.
AND they are not going to unless they are forced and how do we do that. Well we haven't been very successful as Presidents have wanted to, since Truman. AND they are still fighting and controlling the actions and dialogue of the debate.
Finally, we are getting a little opening because we have a President that is not caring about getting reelected and is trying to work toward healthcare for all. You can bet their money that they have amassed over the years is going to destroy him by 2012.
AS for the cost, the Republicans spent a lot more in the false war in Iraq when they should have been going after bin Laden. Iraq has oil. Arabs have oil which is why President Obama is pushing for non-oil energy--he is also not in big oil's pocket--and they will be after him, and are already fighting "going green."
Big oil and big Drug-Insurance-Doctors Associations aren't patriots for our country, but patriots for their wallets. They are the "robber-barons" of our time. What was it Jesus said about the eye of the needle and something about the poor? AND what did he say about homosexuals? (not that I advocate converting)
