For free? No.

I travel extensively - and have sought treatment in a foreign country. I paid for my treatment.

I then sought re-imbursement from my insurance carrier for the costs incurred

Illegals come here and get treated for FREE.

No, I just don't want to waste my time with obvious Rosie O'donell antics. That is uneducated, flipant, ignorant, and assumptive claims. Take care!

Are you willing to fight for that? Do you feel so strongly with your want to tax others and make them pay for other peoples health care that you are willing to die for it? Are you willing to sacrifice your life for that belief? Are you willing to kill another who might defend their right to not have to suffer from that form of taxation? You had better be, because if you are not, then you are a fake hiding behind government power to push your dirty work.

There are people who believe that your forced taxing in these social manners which do not benefit them are nothing more than stealing to pass it off to another.

You said people still have the option to have private health care, but they will not only have to pay that, but then pay for everyone else's as well. The fact that you think that is right and just scares the hell out of me. It scares me because what is next? You going to take my property away and hand it out to those who don't have housing as well? Are you going to tax me for food that you are going to give to everyone else? Whats next Stalin? Let me know what we have to expect in your communistic measures.
Is Canada a communist country? France? Every country in the developed world besides America, all of them having universal health care, are they all "communist?" Do you even know what communism means? Do you get this pissed about being forced to pay for other peoples' fire and police protection? Or roads that you'll never use? Or schools that you'll never attend? It's socialism maaan, ther taken over, the NEW WORLD ORDER, the Reds are comin', call McCarthy and Ann Coulter and get them on the case, right?

From the dictionary:

COMMUNISM -- a system of social organization in which all economic and social activity is controlled by a totalitarian state dominated by a single and self-perpetuating political party.

Key words being ALL economic and social activity, TOTALITARIAN STATE, and a SINGLE AND SELF-PERPETUATING POLITICAL PARTY. Yep, sounds just like what I'm talking about, I'm totally a Communist! Better report me to the Council on Un-American Activities.

"You going to take my property away and hand it out to those who don't have housing as well? Are you going to tax me for food that you are going to give to everyone else?"

We already have HUD, Section 8, and Food Stamps. Communism! Not only that but "communism" that was in place back when we were fighting the Soviets. What war way thaynkin? The commies are comin', hona get the scattergin we gotta fat baik the Raiyuds.

And no, I don't feel like fighting you, but you're welcome to come down to Alabama and let me fight you for your money if you want, weirdo.

What is sad is that you can't seem to connect the dots, even though history has done it all for you. You are right though, even when you are wrong? right?

Thanks for the compliment, I appreciate the personal attack. It only proves to show the fragile condition of your position.

I consider it to be a far graver "personal attack" to be equated with the mastermind of the Reign of Terror and a mass murderer than to be called a "weirdo," maybe that's just me. I usually try not to get confrontational unless I'm confronted.

I didn't say you were a coward, I asked if you were taking a cowardly stance.

I didn't say you were a communist, I asked if you were one?

I also used the Stalin comment within the context of the position that seems to follow his line of thinking in terms of control and dispersal of social matters.

context, that is, context in terms of the discussion we were having.

It would be like me saying "Thats an idiotic thing to say" versus saying "you are an idiot".

So... you'd rather be called "Stalin" than "weirdo?" Whatever. And yes, I do take it as a personal insult for someone to tell me that I follow "Stalin's line of thinking" for not universally buying in to your right-wing free market dogma.
