I'm also not totally for single payer and think the ACA can work with the public option to actually lower health insurance cost. The public option in a sea of private healthcare companies and firms might as well as not exist. Those company would lobby the govt so that it essentially wouldn't be funded. Much how like they sabatoged their own creation: the ACA. --- Life in the DoB. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Which is cheaper out of the United States Postal Service (USPS), United Parcel Service (UPS), and Federal Express (FedEx)? They tried to sabotage USPS to but it's still around. Even if it's terrible it's still competition. Imagine if USPS didn't exist. FedEx and UPS could split their territories and charge whatever prices they want. --- Ad Hominem. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Damn_Underscore posted...Wow how can you ever criticize Communism when any time you do it's just McCarthyism. I'm not afraid of it. I just know that communism, if forced upon a population, which it has to be in order to be implemented as government policy, is an evil ideology. --- Shenmue II = best game of all time Shenmue = 2nd best game of all time ...

If we want to talk about cheaper, removing the private based healthcare scam would be a start I suppose but that's your preference so we don't need to talk about it imo. --- Life in the DoB. ...

Neoliberalism or neo-liberalism[1] is the 20th-century resurgence of 19th-century ideas associated with laissez-faire economic liberalism.[2]:7 Those ideas include economic liberalization policies such as privatization, austerity, deregulation, free trade[3] and reductions in government spending in order to increase the role of the private sector in the economy and society.[11] USPS is not a private company. --- Ad Hominem. ...

There is plenty of evidence against communism. Like I said, go and start a commune with other communists.

Problem is that if the commune becomes a threat to the state it will be shut down by force. Just like what's happened throughout history. And what are you talking about in regards to my ideology?

Damn_Underscore posted...You said before that I'm just afraid of 20th century Marxism-Leninism. In general, communism is a completely equal society. There are no statuses or even currency, everyone is the same. Sorry, I'm not interested. This is not possible with people, many of whom aren't ideologically motivated to have these things. Your version of communism will turn out the same as one of the other versions. --- Shenmue II = best game of all time Shenmue = 2nd best game of all time ... Copied to Clipboard!

Anti-245 posted...Damn_Underscore posted...You said before that I'm just afraid of 20th century Marxism-Leninism. That's a general simplification of communism that I haven't heard advocated by anyone. Neither Marxists or any other versions advocate for full egalitarianism. They also don't advocate for whatever "everyone is the same" is supposed to mean. Currency, I'd agree, they claim will be done away with but in so much that it would have any value at the point in time due to wage labor and private property being abolished. If you're truly interested, you should just look up communism and its different variations. You'd probably be surprised. --- Life in the DoB. ... Copied to Clipboard!
