I'm not sure where you're going here fisty. Are you saying any flattering picture of an attractive woman is porn? I've only seen that attitude in the sects that require women to wear long high neck dresses, no makeup, no jewelry, and (depending on the group) a bonnet or head scarf. I'm mostly certain you're not a part of such a group, tho perhaps I am mistaken.

Words have meanings, including "pornography." That does not the fit meaning of the word, let alone any legal definition. Sloppy word usage is never a good thing.

Guys, enough with the Rachel Ray porn or erotica discussion, please.  Either that, or mods, please lock this thread.

I am more interested in the original subject, thank you.

Wow, all I was trying to say is that I don't find feet in a sink while holding a collander to be sexy at all. But that may be because I find Rachel Ray very annoying in general.

For the record, I do understand that the sink is not the point of the picture. I just happen to find the pose and accoutrements counterproductive to the obvious goal of the picture.

Back on topic, the obvious end result of rationing health care is deciding who lives and who you let die. The only thing that surprises me about the OP is how honest and upfront it is.

That's why I don't argue with socialized medicine supporters that it is impossible for them to cut costs.

I know very well they can. I just want them to admit that this is how it will happen. (Not, "cut corruption and waste!!!!1111" Yeah, the government is good at that...)

Every now and then you find an honest one.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

I'm not sure where you're going here fisty.
I was just ridiculing the Racehorse for over-thinking things.  You're the one who wants to quibble over definitions.

No, just the ones where they're frolicking in a sink, half-naked.

Of course it does.  Next you're going to tell me that Maxim is not a pornographic magazine.

I'm not new to APS, I just think that if we are going to have a discussion about what defines porn versus kitchen themed erotica, we should do so in its own thread...

If you're the type that wants to stay on track in the threads you read, you definitely came to the wrong side of the Internet....  :laugh:

OK....back to the OP....I don't think the intent of socialized medicine is to urge people to die.....just like the intent of drunk driving is not to plow into a minivan filled with a pre-schoolsoccer team....it's just a likely outcome of the plan....

...besides, if everyone dies, who's gonna buy all the spoonulas?.....

Bad analogy.  With the drunkl driving scenario, there's at least a chance of getting home without causing a disaster.  With socialized medicine, there's no chance.
