Ya know, I keep hearing about these friggin' "rights" and "societal benefit" and

Do you?

well

gosh

but what about some of the responsibilities
that come with them...?

And what responsibilities would those be?

As it currently stands, should what appears to be the
latest cluster**** of a scheme actually come to pass, those folks who will
benefit most from "universal" health care are the very ones who would contribute
literally _nothing_ to the cost of it all.

Just like fire and police protection, huh? The rich pay for
everything and the poor get all the benefits. Precisely why they
stay poor for generation after generation.....why get rich with all
the burdens this entails when a life of poverty keeps you on easy
street.

And no, I don't mean the truly
destitute,

Oh, you mean the not so truly destitute. The.....um.....uh......

as I doubt they'll see much, if any, change in their "real-world"
health care no matter which of the current set of usual suspects "reforms" it.

Well, you know how much weight your doubts and suspicions and guesses
and hints and suggestions and allusions and abstractions and
circumlocutions and perambulations and disseminations and distractions
and prevarications and ruminations and buffoonery carry around here.

I refer to those with jobs, but not enough income, after all the exemptions,
credits, etc., to owe _any_ income tax.

And you personally know......um.....exactly how many such people?

And before anyone says anything, the
wonderful, as I understand it, the perfect European and UK systems' _effective_
income tax bands start at _much_ lower incomes than the US and there are various
other taxes, such as VAT, etc., that US liberals scream to all holy hell about
being regressive, unkind and just downright mean.

All of which, assuming there's a shred of demonstrable truth to it
means.....what?

And on top that, if this scheme has no profit, who is gonna work for it, how
are, ahem, medical labs gonna get paid, fancy new machines purchased, new drugs
developed, etc.?

How do the folks who develop, manufacture and distribute bullet proof
vests, badges, guns, ammunition, automobiles, fire trucks, ladders,
handcuffs, tazers, uniforms, hoses, nightsticks, shiny sunglasses,
hats, jail cells, pumps, defibrulators, gurneys, sphygmomanometers,
flashlights, notepads, radar, sirens, leather belts and doughnuts get
paid?

Moron.
