    No, now answer the rest of the question. You are in the top tax rate? You make 95+% more than the rest of America?

    You know better than that beks. Civilized folk don't talk about money. If you're ever on the right coast we can compare SC's and librarian w2s.

    Burn for gods sake will you stop with the insults?? These conversations would be so much better if you would just reign it in! It'll be good for you, like doing sit ups or something.

    All countries have winners and losers.

    I'd rather carry a few dependent losers than see decent folks systemically f*cked by the 'winners'.

    This by way of implication that countries with universal healthcare don't have any R&D, have never invented anything or discovered anything and should be grateful for the crumbs America throw out.

    No implication has been made. I pointed out a UK research firm in my comments as a cutting edge actor. The only implication being made is the one suggested by your bruised ego.

    The facts in my post stand. Care to interact with those?

    Here they are:

    The American system produces:

    2/3 of the Nobel Prize winners for Medicine.

    75% of the global R&D.

    The lion's share of new pharmas and therapies.

    We pay for this, but you do in fact get the benefits. These are a major export.

    Oh and Jehovah is far more impressed with me giving from what little I have, than you giving from your excess Padre.

    Freedom is not simply the ability to survive...true freedom is the ability to have a quality of life that is above servitude. Universal health care is not free healthcare - it is paid for by all people in that free world from the bottom to the top. Those that oppose universal healthcare that would remove the people from servitude, foster a belief and sytem of slavery. Profit from death is a moral hazard and a country that thrives on these hazards has become morally defunct. sammieswife.
