Right ... you rely on Wikipedia... :laugh:
I rely upon:
Socialism always involves force. If not, we wouldn't be forcing people to pay for Obama Care. That's why its wrong... taking other people's property to give to others. We don't take some people's property to give to others when running the military or building roads or running the CDC.
It also doesn't work ... the law does nothing to increase the supply of Doctors. But it increases the Demand for Doctors by subsidizing use of their services. When you increase Demand without increasing the
supply you always get Higher Costs. Its a plan doomed to failure....
I had no idea that Sweden was such a violent place. Imagine that, taking their hard earned meatballs at gunpoint and giving them away. :nuts:
Have you ever tried to look up the definition of socialism somewhere like Wikipedia? Let me help you http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialism
I apologize that it's not as sexy as a five second soundbite from Fixed Noise Network but facts are messier by nature and usually take a little longer.
Now back to our little corner of the world. How exactly is one type of government spending good and right (military budget) and another (healthcare) bad and wrong or "socialism."
Please try explain this time without hiding behind holy documents like the Constitution, Bible etc. I have copies of both at home, but like the phone book, it's not daily reading material..
Thank you
Who is this individual you are talking about? Mises was a classical Liberal. Today what we call Libertarian ... Not a fascist. Fascism is a brand of Socialism.Yes of course, Wikipedia, so laughable, but relying solely on theories expoused by one very biased character who at times in his life was associated with the John Birch society and acted as an apologist for European fascism, is supposed to be taken seriously? Sorry, just can't follow you there, nice try though.
How exactly is Obamacare forcing anything on you or others? Why is that different than paying for the military or the CDC? Both items in the Federal Budget are paid with Federal Tax Dollars. Why is Healthcare in your mind forcefully taken from you while military spending is not? Looks to be the exact same process. Federal Tax Dollars are spent on both items. Hence my original question, which you have so far artfully dodged. How is one considered good and constitutional and the other bad and "socialistic?"
It would be so helpful if you actually attempted to justify your prejudicial preferences before drowning yourself in meaninglessly self serving propaganda.
“Would socialized medicine lead to socialization of other phases of life? Lenin thought so. He declared socialized medicine is the keystone to the arch of the socialist state.”

BTW Sparse, since that "change it back" thing didn't quite work out, can we expect a new and improved avatar anytime soon?
:beer:
Huge question mark. The half glass full side would say in theory we can make it in the business model CA is pursuing but changes are coming in pay, schedule, and QoL. The half glass empty side would say that we will be shuttered in about a year. Neither scenario looks good.how is citationair doing now?
Ok Goon here it is. In four years I will be a fully retired aviator, living off my full SS, medicare/obamacare, enjoying my lump sum retirement and you will be paying for it.
Fast Forward is my new motto.
Sorry, I looked up your hero's bio. He was associated with the John Birch Society & he was a longtime apologist for European fascism. He may be an old "liberal" ie. libertarian, but that does not make the man any cleaner about his obviously racist world views.Who is this individual you are talking about? Mises was a classical Liberal. Today what we call Libertarian ... Not a fascist. Fascism is a brand of Socialism.
I've answered your question several times. Obama Care steals money from people and gives it to other people. That's different from Defense and CDC. Those do not steal money to give to others.
