we are turning in to a society where the rights of the individual is taking a back seat to the rights of the collective....when in fact in the american system its the rights of the individual that is supposed to be protected....

THAT IS COMMUNISM...and its been a long time comming....


when an external influence can force you to buy a product that you may not need or want....how is that freedom....

can i get the govt to regulate that every person needs to buy cliffs of dover....cuz if everyone spent money on it the devs would have more resources to work with.....


or maybe i should regulate that every home in america needs to hire someone to do lawn care, cuz its dangerous, and thus only professionals should be ablet to do it....that would surely help my business out....

Seriously, do you really believe that nonsense? universal healthcare will not lead to communism! Just goes to show the level of brain washing that the US has had to suffer due to a string of right wing governments.

Most of Europe has universal state healthcare and are far from communist. The UK has had a national health service since 1948 and has never come even close to being a communist country. The Health service in the US is pitiful compared to the rest of the developed world.

A communist country has a 100% planned economy which means the state decides the level of demand rather then the free market. Introducing universal healthcare is not going to tear down the very fabric of the US market led economy, in fact it may help as a large proportion of bankrupsy in the US is due to not being able to meet healthcare costs.

Communism usually comes hand in hand with a brutal totalitarian regime. I think the USA is in no danger of turning into that kind of state.
