I've just spent the last hour trying to explain public health care to some ranting goof who doesn't get it. You've probably heard about the screaming corporate zombies who live over here. :) I'm worn out and I haven't even been outside yet.
Bontempi? I look forward to this.

Not sure why saying something sucks balls means you get two cents, but that seems to be how it works on the internet, it's called micropayments I think.

I like paved roads. And I don't fork out money every month to pay for having them. Actually, I like dirt roads. But it helps to have highways. We all pay for them through taxes.
It's like auto insurance. I drive 1000 miles a year, and I pay $1000 in insurance. It sucks. I'd rather have public auto insurance.
Medicare is public health care. I know three people who in the last year would be bankrupt if not for Medicare. They're really old, but that's not the point.
