The answer to healthcare is that the government need to open government sponsored hospitals; it can have different payments plans per individual. Those who cannot pay everything immediately can pay incrementally throughout their lifespan.
99.9% of all hospitals are already government sponsored.
"The Question isn't who is going to let me; It's who is going to stop me". Ayn Rand.
"Throught the centuries there were men who took first steps down new roads armed with nothing but their own vision" Ayn Rand.
tell me Hot air, how do we progress as a society and create jobs without someone leading the way? Where would we be as a society without the Carnegies, Fricks, Fords, Gates, and even the Buffets? Of course you never can respond to me because you dont like people who think differently than you do.
and btw, I watched Atlas Shrug last night and began reading the book "I am John Galt" this evening.
Sorry, Ayn Rand, but you're a hypocrite. She had help on her way to success just like every other successful person has. No successful (wo)man is an island.
The word "illegal" is not in a Leftist's vocabulary. They don't believe in immigration laws, and therefore the nation's sovereignty they were made to affirm, at all, so since such laws don't exist, ergo, no immigrant is an illegal. That is not a word.
Oh bull****. I'm a liberal and I believe in immigration laws. As long as they are fair and enforced!

I believe he used a broader brush. He said liberals don't believe in the word illegal, as if liberals don't believe in laws. This is the idiocy that we are getting from the extreme right, and they wonder why nobody takes them seriously.

No one ever said the success doesnt have help. Buffet and Gates alone employ 1/2 a million individuals who help them obtain wealth which
Good, so we agree that one can not become successful without someone helping them in some way, right?
Helping people obtain wealth isnt done as charity. One helps the other in exchange for payment, which has me wondering why so many on the left dont want these 500,000 people to be un-employed.
Even Ayn Rand recognized that the railroad tycoon wasnt going to lay down new tracks on her own and the trains didnt drive themself.

I don't think she's hypocritical, here's the part of the transcript from the video where she touches on this. Part three around the 45 second mark:
Quote:
You are married? Yes. Your husband, is he an industrialist?
No. He's an artist. His name is Frank O'Conner.
He paints. No, he's not a writer. Does he live from his painting?
He's just beginning to study painting. He was a designer before.
Is he supported in his efforts by the state?
Most certainly not.
He's supported by you for the time being?
No, by his own work actually in the past.
By me if necessary, but that isn't quite necessary.
There is no contradiction here, in that you help him.
No, because you see I am in love with him selfishly.
It is to my own interest to help him if he ever needed it.
I always find it fascinating that right wing extremist believe they understand liberals so well and are so wrong. I guess it is easier to take extremists views on liberals rather than to actually find out what they believe.
Look in the mirror often?
