Socialized Medicine FAIL

Random royal wedding thought: I know certain people in positions of power are infatuated with Great Britain’s NHS, but do we really want to emulate a healthcare system that cannot provide even its princes Propecia?

The whole point of socialized medicine is to control the population. You have to beg the gov'ment to cover your operation or your medicines. Just think of the tribute the politicans can extract from a desparate populace.

Of course, the intent of Obama's/Democrats' WELFARECARE is [duh].....WELFARE! The targeted purpose of same was the 30 million UNINSUREDS pre-WELFARECARE'S legislation. These 30 million can be grouped into two catagories: [1] those financially indigent enough to not be able to afford health insurance coverage and [2] those able to afford same, but instead ignorantly replacing the needed $dollars for same's premiums with too-expensive homes that they could not afford, multiple brand-new automotive vehicles, expensive vacations, restaurant dining/meals etc!!!!!!!!!!
