So what are you saying? Let people die in the street because they cant afford medical care?
Whose job is it to pay for their medical care? Not mine - my job is to pay for MY medical care. What makes "medical care" different from food, clothing, shelter, heat, or ANY OTHER commodity that is necessary for life? HEalth care is NOT a "right" - a "right" is something a citizen should NOT BE PREVENTED from doing by the government - like voting, bearing arms, speaking freely, worshiping, etc. One characteristic of a RIGHT is that ther exercise thereof, or failure to do so, doesn't prevent or enable SOMEONE ELSE from exercising the same right - health care, on the other hand, is a limited commodity - there are only so many doctors, x-ray machines, doses of flu vaccine - and when one is used, it can't simultaneously be used by others. In a free, capatalist society, we let the market allocate resources.
Round up street urchins and shoot them?
How about rounding up the owners of the uterii that are popping these "street urchines" out, and making them 'fess up as to who their baby's daddy is - followed by DNA confirmation and either child support or imprisonment WITHOUT conjugal visits? Might convince them to "wrap it before they slap it" Top it off with involuntary sterilization for the second offense - NOBDY has a "right" to indiscriminantly bring puppies and kittens, much less children, into this world.
Let the rich who get richer live in their walled communities with their own police and schools while outside the 99 out of a hundred other people live in cardboard boxes?
...and the lepoard's spots are revealed...
If that is what you want move to Brazil.
How about YOU move to North Korea, Cuba, or some other such "worker's paradise"? I hear they still have a few million job openings in Cambodia after the "downsizing" under Pol Pot...
The extreme right wants the U.S. to be Brazil North.
...notice how it's always the "extreme right" - especially if you want a limited government that actually OBEYS its Constitution...
There is a big lie that poor people are dragging this country down; the truth is it is the ultra-rich who are transforming America.
14-30 million illegal immigrants + the native-born free riders have NO EFFECT...sure...
If you doubt that look at your heating oil bill this winter, the price of food in the grocery store, and check out who is making EVERYTHING you buy in the stores (it is not Americans). Open your eyes.
My eyes are OPEN - SLOW DAY ON THE bERKELY CAMPUS?
