The Looming Threat of Socialism

I was being facetious, which I thought was rather obvious, and mocking all of those, many of this board, who decry progressive taxation and social services as some dangerous threat that's going to destroy the country and turn us into the USSR. Those who think higher taxes on the wealthy to create publicly provided medicine, no different than any of the services I listed, is dangerous socialism are who I'm aping.

I do recognize the value of social services, which is why I appreciate libraries, firefighters, paved roads, and universal healthcare. They all involve collective taxation to provide a better service for the community as a whole.

Why don't you get off your ass, go out and make a living instead of expecting ME to pay for your healthcare. I earned it...YOU didn't...and if you can't afford it then that should be an incentive to better YOUR OWN situation instead of being a lazy ass and sucking up MY MONEY.

and speaking of public education....my kids are in private schools...enough said there.
 
Why don't you get off your ass, go out and make a living like the rest of us instead of taking my fucking hard earned money to pay for your healthcare? I earned it...YOU didn't.

What about my hard earned premiums paying for YOUR health care...

So what re private school. How many kids wouldn't go to school at all if not for a public system. How many people do you think can afford it?

Please draw me a distinction between providing our children with education and providing them with healthcare, both paid for via taxes and administered by the government that makes one fine and one the end of modern civilization.

Why don't you go down to Miami, Florida and ask the Cubans why they left their paradise.

PatekPhillipe, I understand that you in the delusional far right wing don't understand that you are delusional. That's why you so delusionaly took the positions you have the last ten years, thinking wrongly you would change the world. Instead, the world rolled over you inevitably. You will keep it up and the world will role over you next year again. Guaranteed. I will be here to remind you.

You are boring.

Because they were the land-owning mega wealthy who watched while Rome burned and wanted the peasants to eat cake. That's why they left....unless you're talking about the loons Castro let out of the insane asylums in 1980, in which case they probably wouldn't know what day it is, let alone why they are in Florida..:cool:
 
Contumacious posts a statement that has no reality in relationship to the discussion above. It merely reinforces the inevitable conclusion that he does not understand the reality of the American political and historical process.

Denial of the obvious by you is textbook for your kind.

So if you need bypass surgery you can pay up without insurance? Cool. If not, you are sucking off the teat of other's premiums. No difference. If somebody pays taxes and they use public health, all they are doing is getting their own money back in the form of a service..

fuck you're a moron

Like I said...mind your own business Kiwi.....you stay in your fucked Utopian Socialist dream....leave us Americans to our own devices.
 
You know, the threat of Socialism has been looming greatly here for over fifty years. Seems to be not to be doing a good job of anything but. Then again, if one wants to get technical, taxes by definition would be Socialist. So to be quite honest, "the threat of Socialism" seems up there with Chicken Little. Should we all go ahead and dive under our desks at school and work for a drill again? :lol:

Ah, you have no answers...

Your last sentence - more than happy to, when the US butts out of everybody else's. Deal?

And what is fucked up about my "Utopia"? I'd be surprised if you knew a damn thing about it, because, after all, you are a moron..

hhhhmmmm...well, we know that now...maybe. Castro still seems pretty popular down there. Reading his autobiography at the moment. Interesting life.

Probably the answer to any political system is a version of what most European countries, US, Oz, NZ, SA and Canada have.
