I'll try answering in accordance to what I've heard on Fox News. During World War II, Hitler devised a plan (called the Final Solution) that would eliminate the Jewish threat through genocide. Likewise, Obama's healthcare plan calls for the implementation of so-called "death panels." Allow me to explain what Republicans mean by "death panels." What they mean by "death panels" is that doctors will not be able to treat their patients, who are covered by the President's healthcare plan, without first discussing their patients' procedures (such as chemotherapy) with a bureaucrat (government employee). Now, in our current healthcare system, we have private healthcare insurance companies, like Kaiser, (unless you're on Medicare)who deal with doctors' requests for procedures or treatments. While these private insurance companies occasionally deny doctor requests, the majority of requests are passed. "Death panels" exist now and would exist even more if Obama's public option is passed in the sense that if that government employee doesn't want to pay for the doctor's patient's procedure, then that patient is screwed.
Well, according to Fox News and most Republicans, universal healthcare is a socialist concept. You see, President Obama's healthcare plan will FORCE every American to have healthcare insurance. The estimated amount of people without healthcare insurance varies according to what you're polling. Roughly 13 million illegal aliens don't have healthcare insurance, as they shouldn't (but that doesn't stop them from making their children American citizens by breeding them inside the U.S.). Another 5 million Americans don't have healthcare insurance due to pre-existing conditions, such as cancer. And the remaining 20-30 million Americans CHOOSE not to have healthcare insurance because they'd rather buy a big plasma TV or a new boat. Republicans call Obama's plan "socialist" because it will FORCE you to buy healthcare insurance (whether from a private enterprise or the government). And if you REFUSE to buy healthcare insurance, you will be charged a fine (not sure how much though).
Personally, I see both sides perfectly. The liberal Democrats think it would reduce healthcare costs (and it could since less people would be using the Emergency rooms at hospitals) if every American was FORCED to buy healthcare insurance. On the other hand, Republicans believe that allowing the government to compete with private insurance companies could lead to less competition since the role of private enterprises is to make profit. Plus, this is seen as "more government involvement in our daily lives," which is of course a huge turnoff for Republicans.
And what most idiots out there are not realizing is that most public government programs are already 'socialized,' such a socialized public security and safety, e.g. the police and fire departments. So using that rationale, with have been a socialist state for, oh, FOR EVER
The United States is the only industrialized nation in the world without universal healthcare. We already have a national debt of over 11 trillion motherfucking dollars. Passing a plan that costs over 1 trillion dollars is incomprehensible. And if you don't have enough money to buy your own medicine, then move to Canada or France.
@ 42Adams: I'm neither. I was just explaining Obama's plan, according to Fox News. However, I will concede that anyone who believes Fox News word-for-word is a retarded troll.
@ Steven: Lol, sorry I misunderstood you. When I said, "Fucking liberals and their socialist shit," I was talking about climate change, in general. The talk of "communist Nazis," "socialists," and "liberals" was directed towards PwnBot's comment.
For one, it's not an easy thing to do.
For two, why the fuck should anyone have to move out of their own country just because they disagree with right-wing dickheads?
^Yup. The only reason why I listen to dickheads like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck is so I can bother my liberal friends with shitty right-wing arguments.
^Partisan sheep. "My unconstitutional law-passing, lie spewing, puppet party is WAY better than YOUR unconstitutional law-passing, lie spewing, puppet party."
How the respect of the planet has something to do with a Tsunami? Mankind can't control earthquakes!
How are we supposed to trust environmentalists after this kind of bullshit?
I manipulate global events by throwing plastic bottles into the woods, and shitting in the river. If I'm looking for something major to happen, I'll set a pile of tires afire in the back yard... This morning there was snow on the mountain, it never snows here in September. If only there were a politician who could stop this madness...
Listen Fathead, if by wittiest you mean is constantly fucking moaning about the state of the world then you're right. But, I don't think you meant that.
How about instead of saying anything to me you just shut up. You are right down there along with a bunch of other losers who I don't know and don't want to be bothered to have to acknowledge.
Hank you harp on here about the same shit ad nauseum (racism..etc.), so your complaining about tedium is akin to pissing into the wind of your own. Granted I've been in a bad mood lately, but this, too, shall pass.
Anyways, I don't hear any 9/11 bullshit here, so I really don't get what you're bothered by.
My point was that it's not really cool to say what you said. In any particular tragedy it would not be funnier if 100 times more people had died. What kind of shit is that to say while being serious?
Unless you're talking about the sinking of the Titanic. I think it would have been hilarious if a 100 times more people had drowned when the ship sank.
Nah, I wasn't talking to you. When I said 'you' it was a bit of a broadly aimed statement at the likes of O'Reilly & the Fox News fans, who put waaaay too much emphasis on something that happened 8 years ago, in support of modern operations. For example the war in Afghanistan now is far detached from 9/11. Yes, it may have instigated it, but it's a whole new war today.
I was just goading the right wingers of Mucho with the '100 times more death' comment, & you got caught up in it. Playing Devils advocate to pass time, I've no work to do today, absolutely nothing in my in-tray.
I wouldn't say it was funny, but it didn't affect me emotionally at all. Like Wanko said, no one I knew was there.
I don't even like New York, plus we see so much of killing, tragic accidents, war, etc.. on the news how worked up can you get if it's not someone you know?
The fact that it was my country didn't matter to me. I don't really feel any special patriotic feelings. I feel a connection to my home region, which is, as I see it, the northen two thirds of Minnesota and the northern one third of Wisconsin. Outside of the midwest, it's almost like a different country to me.
They should have put those arrows that people wear on their heads on Fat Man and Little Boy so we could giggle still as we watched them fall from the bomb bay doors.
I sensed sarcasm when it said about 9/11 being one of the worst tragedies in history. Because it goes on to say about the tsunami killing 10 times more people. So WWF obviously thinks that there is too much focus still on 9/11 and not enough on what the planet can naturally do.
Comments to "respect our planet"
How was 9/11 one of the worst tragedies in the history of humanity? I mean it was horrible, but in the big picture... really?
humanity = u.s. citizens
history = the last fifty years
the greatest tragedy before the history of humanity was pearl harbour btw.
humanity = rich white or jewish people
history = whatever fits into the elite propaganda
and hearl harbour wasn't more of a tragedy than the Gulf of tonkin incident...
or Nagasaki...or Hiroshima...or any of the extermination camps
oh wait...
9/11 was the funniest prank ever executed.
The real tragedy is that my breakfast cereal is going stale already.
It's a real tragedy you haven't had all your teeth kicked out by a couple of drunk indians.
Gas-sniffers or pakis?
Casino jackets.
I'm an American and when something fights me I fight back. Viva la industrialization!
I would smack you into next week.
if you like, you may suck it right now ^^
look, i dont wanna be disrespectful and nothing,
but germany kicked the tsunamis ass with WW2.
america tsunami'd iraq's ass 5x over.
and the french did a number in the congo
^just thought i'd get that in cos i don't like the french
Fucking liberals and their socialist shit.
you don't know what any of those words mean, do you?
I highly doubt he does, I'm surprised he can even form a complete sentence.
I'm just quoting Fox News.
"Fair and balanced news"
Tell me how somebody is both socialist and liberal? How about a Communist Nazi?
Stop parroting the buzz words you hear from commentators who are more concerned with ratings and sensationalism than actual facts.

i can't tell if he's a troll, or just retarded...
a retarded troll.

now say that in scarlet voice!

Scarlet voice?
nvm, i'm not talking to any of you anymore...
Let's see if you'll last longer than any of your two minute faps.
Asswart, the healthcare bill is actually much more sinister than you describe :(..Anyone else here listen to Alex Jones?
I love when people say "move to another country."
For one, it's not an easy thing to do.
For two, why the fuck should anyone have to move out of their own country just because they disagree with right-wing dickheads?
How to lose an argument:
Start your sentence with "Well, according to Fox News and most Republican".
hahaha fucking hell...
^Yup. The only reason why I listen to dickheads like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck is so I can bother my liberal friends with shitty right-wing arguments.
What a useless waste of time.
Id do the same if I got paid their salaries.
Maybe it's time for the liberals to use the "get the fuck out of my country" line on republicans.
^Partisan sheep. "My unconstitutional law-passing, lie spewing, puppet party is WAY better than YOUR unconstitutional law-passing, lie spewing, puppet party."
Fuck.
I'm not American roland, we actually have politics in our country.
That wasn't aimed at you directly Jones, but at the thread as a whole. P.S. What country, just out of curiousity?
Denmark, 12 parties, 6 of them are big. Then they make strategic alliances to get their parties policies represented in the government.
I don't see any wrestlers.
hah!
Mothra was just out of frame.
he said wrestlers... not giant monsters....
maybe you meant to say hulk hogan or something :(
If you missed Jake the Snake vs. Mothra in '84, it's not my fault dude.
WTF do the WWF douches have to do with any of that? Shouldn't they be breeding pandas or something?
The world wrestling federation has it's hands in all kinds of stuff.
How the respect of the planet has something to do with a Tsunami? Mankind can't control earthquakes!

I heard Obama is a messiah. Maybe you could ask him?
Christ Roland, your shit is getting so fucking tedious.
Maybe you should consider suicide.
God you're a dick. Roland is up there along with Claude as a couple of the wittiest people on the site.
Haha, look at the noob sucking Roland's dick.
Listen Fathead, if by wittiest you mean is constantly fucking moaning about the state of the world then you're right. But, I don't think you meant that.
How about instead of saying anything to me you just shut up. You are right down there along with a bunch of other losers who I don't know and don't want to be bothered to have to acknowledge.
Ahem. I believe he was sucking MY dick? >=(
Hank you harp on here about the same shit ad nauseum (racism..etc.), so your complaining about tedium is akin to pissing into the wind of your own. Granted I've been in a bad mood lately, but this, too, shall pass.
Claude, take a number.
Seriously Roland, the world is fucked beyond repair. Maybe you should just end it all.
The world?
How the fuck on!
Hold**
This commercial is all sorts of retarded. What are they selling here, pandas or some shit?
The new Airbus.
I'm not so keen on CGI, so I'll just download this one and pass on it at the cinema.
subtle
haha 100 times more deaths.
That would have been funny, but I hate to think how long that shit would be milked.
It would be especially funny if it was a thousand times more deaths!
Haha. No. Wtf are you talking about?
You not tired of the 9/11 bullshit?
Yeah, you got pwned by a bunch or A-rabs, get over it.
1. What 9/11 bullshit?
2. I didn't get pwned by anyone, you stupid limey faggot. Wtf are you talking about?
Not you, the people who keep talking about it to gain some traction with their war on terror propaganda.
It sure seemed like you were talking to me there.
Anyways, I don't hear any 9/11 bullshit here, so I really don't get what you're bothered by.

Idle hands...
According to Fox News, we're going to lose the Afghan war if King Obama doesn't deploy more troops.
According to Faux News, you're a moron.
ButtFugly is such an unusual character, a sissy cosplaying pussy right-wing Fox News fan. Wtf?
It's cool, though. I dig hybrid styles, usually.
It would be funny if the people on the titanic had clown outfits on with the sad clown makeup.
Or the same with 9/11. You could see them on TV putting sad clown corpses on stretches and in body bags.
Actually 9/11 was pretty funny anyway because no one I liked died.
I wouldn't say it was funny, but it didn't affect me emotionally at all. Like Wanko said, no one I knew was there.
I don't even like New York, plus we see so much of killing, tragic accidents, war, etc.. on the news how worked up can you get if it's not someone you know?
The fact that it was my country didn't matter to me. I don't really feel any special patriotic feelings. I feel a connection to my home region, which is, as I see it, the northen two thirds of Minnesota and the northern one third of Wisconsin. Outside of the midwest, it's almost like a different country to me.
They should have put those arrows that people wear on their heads on Fat Man and Little Boy so we could giggle still as we watched them fall from the bomb bay doors.
It would have been better if that shithole that is New York was eaten by Giant Panda Bears.
nice one... it would be better if the U.S. just goes into civil war again and destroys itsefl.
It would be far, far better if you were to just shut the fuck up.
i wish there was a big metroid who finishes the half of the world off
Metroid?
Did you mean meteorite?
You're a metroid.
You're a meteorong.
both your mothers are whores
metewhores
obviously you guys are too old to know what a metroid is.
maybe he means space pirates?
I think it was a shitty video game but then I also thought of it as a combination of metro and hemorrhoid so I figured that meant hank.
i think he meant metroid.. like you know... the video game with samus... the 'first female video game character'
;/
Samus is hot.
samus, metroid, whatever it should kill half of the world
Hemorrhoid hank should kill half of the world. The asian half. And then himself.
Then we'll make him into a video game character.
What special powers will Hank have in the game?
the power of fuck off already!!
Whoa! I bet you wish you had that power.
I wish I had that power.
I sensed sarcasm when it said about 9/11 being one of the worst tragedies in history. Because it goes on to say about the tsunami killing 10 times more people. So WWF obviously thinks that there is too much focus still on 9/11 and not enough on what the planet can naturally do.
Gee thanks.
Hey what do you get when you cross an idiot with a moron?
You.
