or experienced what life is really like under a system where THE GOVERNMENT CONTROLS EVERYTHING...

What in the world makes you think that the government having control over healthcare means "everything is fine and dandy, and everyone lives in peace and harmony henceforth"?
In the spring of 2009, a Republican strategist settled on a brilliant and powerful attack line for President Barack Obama's ambitious plan to overhaul America's health insurance system. Frank Luntz, a consultant famous for his phraseology, urged GOP leaders to call it a "government takeover."
"Takeovers are like coups," Luntz wrote in a 28-page memo. "They both lead to dictators and a loss of freedom."
The line stuck. By the time the health care bill was headed toward passage in early 2010, Obama and congressional Democrats had sanded down their program, dropping the "public option" concept that was derided as too much government intrusion. The law passed in March, with new regulations, but no government-run plan.
But as Republicans smelled serious opportunity in the midterm elections, they didn't let facts get in the way of a great punchline. And few in the press challenged their frequent assertion that under Obama, the government was going to take over the health care industry.
"The gov't can't provide booze and hookers to truckers in the desert, and they want to manage HEALTH CARE?" — Andrew Napolitano

endtimer this was sickest I ever read on ATS forum.
You are so sick that I created account just to replay to you and say what is on my mind.
I must congratulate you on one thing:
- You are expert in spreading hate. There is no other word for what you are saying. When I saw your post, I started to hate you, like I believe lots of other people.
I believe you wanted to do just that so you are successful hate spreader.
So if we know you are hate spreader, then we simply need to ignore you, and stop spreading your hate. That is only way to fight sick people like you. If I say to you what is on my mind, I would just do what you do, spread hate.
ggggggggggggzzzzzzz it is so hard not to say what is on my mind. You are very sick and brainwashed man and I personally doubt that you will change. It is because inside of you, you know that you are not right. Other option is that you spread hate by purpose.

I am truly sorry that you have taken so much flak in this thread for honestly expressing yourself. Please accept my apology. I never intended to beg for help in this thread and I never intended for it to be a bash endtimer thread. I believe the American health system is horribly broken. You have a different opinion. There is no reason for hatred to be exchanged over that. We simply disagree. Please people this thread is not about calling endtimer names. I should have stated that many pages ago. I am ashamed for not speaking sooner.

Buddah,
Sorry I have to take issue with your statement. Yes I believe that every man and woman should have available to them the means with which to protect themselves.
If I want to carry a .45 strapped to my hip when I walk down the street, deal with it.
If you want you children's safety to depend on the response time of the local PD, then you are not thinking clearly.
He just turned 19 and already has his first handgun, a 9 mil. (personally I think its a bad choice and prefer the .45 myself but hey that's just personal preference.)
Those who are willing to give up freedom for safety deserve neither. (paraphrasing Ben Franklin)
