You wake up with complete dictatorial powers in USA - what do you do?

[FJO]

rightwinger opined thus:

"Canadians think they are so cool with their healthcare

American: I got open heart surgery and mortgaged my house to pay the bill
Canadian: I had open heart surgery and didnt even get a bill

Those Canadians won't be so smug after we invade them and take away their healthcare."

Canadians, by and large are practical and pragmatic people. They know fully well that the health care they are getting is only "free" because they pay for it with taxes, all of which goes to the government each and every year, until their "tax freedom day", which comes sometime in July.

Canadians are smug about things they can be justifiably smug about. Like hockey.

Canadians are not afraid of American invasion, because only Democrats/liberal/progressives/assholes like rightwinger would advocate something like that, and Democrats will be on the ash heap of history after the election in 2014 and especially the one in 2016.

Restore the Constitution and retire.

Yeah. Oh ... about that Canadian universal healthcare thing:

ObamaCare Yay Or Nay? The Truth About Canada! - YouTube

The health care in Canada is administered differently by individual provinces.

The video showed how the province of Quebec administers it.

Canadians think they are so cool with their healthcare

American: I got open heart surgery and mortgaged my house to pay the bill

Why on earth do you want to invade Canada? If they want a sub par health care system, they can have it.

 

[Plasmaball]

I would remove all private business and put everyone on welfare.
Tax rates would be at 95%
All people i deem rightwing would be put into camps or an island.Where they would be forced to become gay.
drones over every city
Change the flag to a more Muslim friendly flag.
Change the official language to Farsi.
Id remove all other branches since they wouldnt be needed.
All state rights would be revoked.

Im sure im missing some important ones, but you get the idea.

They won't be so smug when we come streaming over their border.

First we ban their healthcare. We can't have stinking Canadians thinking they have better healthcare than us
Then we ban Curling.......it is a stupid game
Then we nationalize Hockey and claim we invented it

Lastly, we send Bieber and Cruz back where they came from

 

[pvsi]

Restore the Constitution and retire.

How about just make an announcement "God bless America and the constitution" and retire? you would be more humble that way.

I am beginning to think that you are in a desperate - albeit hopeless - struggle to prove to the world that in spite all the evidence of your posts, you have a sense of humor.

Americans already claiming that they invented basketball, the stupid game of overgrown genetic freaks, which makes the month of March a month of Madness.

BTW, no need to send back Beiber. Or Jim Carrey. Or Celine Dion.

that wont fix anything though

 

[deltex1]

If I woke up to a government with dictatorial powers I would work to destroy them since by definition they would be unconstitutionally empowered. If it was I who had the power...I would agree with unkotare...follow the constitution...borrowing from many of the suggestions from the speakers at the CPAC convention.

 

[ScienceRocks]

Seeing how the constitution allows for the nws, nhc, noaa, nasa, fda, fdi, cia, and safety net. Well, it all comes down to some common sense reforms as I high lighted in my 7 points earlier in this thread.

What the losertrians are fighting for is a complete gutting of our first world nation into a third world crap hole of the 18th century!

 

[ScienceRocks]

And yes the nsa is breaking the law spying on all Americans and needs to be reformed big time.

The threat of Canada is far too serious to take lightly

Are you aware that 90% of their population is massed within 50 miles of our border?

 

[ScienceRocks]

Some of the other things I'd do is
1. reform education-
2. reform our college system not to send people into debt.
3. Invest in science, modern infrastructure and r&d like most of the developing world that wants to be first world is currently doing.

**** the 18th century!

Yeah ... but a good portion of Canada's population is made up of American draft-dodgers. "War" with Canada isn't much of a concern.

That proximity makes it easier for Americans to go to Canada for inexpensive prescriptions.

American: I got open heart surgery and mortgaged my house to pay the bill
Canadian: I had open heart surgery and didnt even get a bill

Those Canadians won't be so smug after we invade them and take away their healthcare

American: Modern technology made my heart surgery nearly non-invasive and virtually pain-free. Thanks to technology, it didn't cost as much as I thought it would.
Canadian: I FINALLY got my heart surgery but a day after I died.

No need to invade ... they would surrender at the very threat of America's military heading their way.

This is why capitalism ******* rules...As long as it as responsible and reasonable regulations that is. Canada is off balance...

 

[pvsi]

I would send the nut cases like the ones below on a one way vacation trip to the moon.

Screw Canada

They are so ******* smug. They sit up there with their universal healthcare and hockey Gold Medals and think they are hot shit

I got a question for Canadians.......Ever been to the moon?

Huh?

Americans and Russians went to the moon like they fought the cold war - IN HOLLYWOOD - one has to be QUITE NAIVE to believe the government and the media propaganda, but it WAS a good way to sucker tax payers

Nice try you ******* Canadian asshole

pvsi is indeed asshole of biblical proportion, but don't insult Canadians by calling pvsi Canadian.

On day,

1. Fund every school district in the nation which chose to do so the money to expand secondary education to 14 years for those not inclined to seek a four year degree, the final two as preparation for employment in the 21st Century; (BAD -- IF STUDENTS CAN'T LEARN IN 12 YEARS WHAT IT TAKES TO GET UP AND GO TO WORK THEN THEY'RE PROBABLY TOO STUPID TO MAKE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE)

2. Fund every school district which chose to include age appropriate sex education as part of a comprehensive health care curriculum with funding; (BAD -- FOR CENTURIES UPON CENTURIES PEOPLE WERE PRETTY MUCH ABLE TO FIGURE OUT "SEX ED" WITHOUT SOME LIBERAL STRANGER TEACHIN' THE BIRDS AND THE BEES. SEX ED IS A FAMILY MATTER).

3. Require every able bodied citizen between the age of 16 and 34 to complete two years of service to the nation; (GOOD)

4. Build and staff six regional teaching hospitals around the nation providing capable and motivated students the ability to earn a medical degree at tax payer expense; require each successful student to complete their internship and residency within a teaching hospital, in one of the health centers build in each congressional district or in the military; (BAD -- SOUNDS SORTA LIKE A SOCIALIST IDEA AND A BIT TOO OBAMACARESQUE).

5. Protect elected and appointed officials from defamation, make false claims and allegations a criminal offense and allow victims compensation when libeled or slandered by individuals or corporations. (BAD -- MOST POLITICIANS ARE CORRUPT AND POWER-HUNGRY. FREEDOM OF SPEECH SHOULD BE PROTECTED. GOOD -- FALSE WITNESS IS ALREADY A CRIME AND PERPETRATORS SHOULD BE PUNISHED).

6. Repeal Citizens United v. FEC ruling. Place a 'spending cap' on each office and all money spent to be accountable to the people from its source, at least five days prior to the vote; (BAD -- IT'S NEVER A GOOD IDEA TO DIVIDE A UNITED CITIZENRY IF THE CITIZENS' GOAL IS TO RESTORE AND PROTECT THE CONSTITUTION. GOOD -- TOTAL AND COMPLETE TRANSPARENCY (NOT JUST THE FALSE PROMISE OF TRANSPARENCY) IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE A VERY GOOD THING).

7. On the seventh day I will retire (again).

A little too socialist sounding but it sounds like your heart might be in the right place.

I'm not opposed to a little socialism or a little less regulation. I'm a pragmatist, which is somehow lost in the on going battle between left and right, liberal and conservative.

IMO Socialism and unregulated Capitalism are impractical given human nature, it seems reasonable to me to drop the labels and seek solutions to problems not confined to an ideological box.

Consider the idea of a six regional teaching hospitals where a capable and motivated student, unable to afford the high cost of college, let alone medical school, is able to complete two years of school (grades 13 and 14 in my construct) focused entirely on a career in health care; then enter a teaching hospital/medical school well prepared and focused on a career in the healing arts (and other areas of need for the 21st. Century).

Interesting observation....the constitution allows us to act responsibly...God does the same...BOTH DEPEND ON OUR WISDOM TO DO RIGHT...and so we zig zag though history...hopefully never dumping the whole thing into the shitter.
