I’ve imagined the Red States and Blue States make alliances in some ways. I am in a blue state of NJ and I would like to see this state ally with other blue states for a singer payer insurance program. The red states can do whatever they wish to do and left on their own with jacked up hospital payments and armed to the teeth with guns and Bibles. I don’t know if this is feasible given the insurance ownership of congress. Swing states choose a side. This way more people are happy, those in wrong state might want to move over. idk if it would even work, just an idea. This makes me sound like I’m part of the problem of cultural war, but hey I’m just looking for a solution with less clashes. The two extremists Antifa/MAGA clashes I want nothing to be a part of.
I guess what I’m saying is, more power to the States creates better solutions, so not everyone is forced on national level in certain policies. It’s more customized America.
Good luck with that, Zeke.
The problem with socialism of any sort, health care or otherwise, is that it’s never enough, and as Dame Thatcher said, it’s fine, until you run out of other people’s money. My parents could afford health care and doctor’s visits, until Johnson put the government into the business, driving up prices…
My parents were physicians; my mother a dermatologist who gave away about a third of her medical care until Johnson imposed paperwork that required additional secretaries just for paperwork. They both spoke at great length at our dinner table about how it was the end of great American health care for us, their children. It has been a nagging dread since childhood and they would be sick to see just how correct they were. As the KGB agent said in the video below, the people who will insist on free healthcare will be the first to be denied service. The socialist/communist way.
Who’s “Johnson”? You mean LBJ the President in the 60s who allegedly was part of the gov. coup assassination of JFK according to many investigators like Jim Marrs and others? That Johnson?
There’s no such thing as “free healthcare” in any format. That’s strange and illogical how you would even word that. It’s hard to even reply as it makes no sense. Anyway, my family lived extensively both in soviet style communism and Reagan capitalism (or USSA? how Farrell puts it). The KGB agent says one thing, and your bank says another when he takes your house away stemming from medical bills. There’s arguments all around, it’s not black and white. This simplistic linear either..or argument permeates modern critical though leading to illogical conclusions.
Hear hear justawhoaman… Zeke, I’m afraid, doesn’t get it, and his own thoughts strike me as much more illogical than yours, because I remember the days you mention, and government health care, in ANY form, always drives up prices and closes people like me – barely making it – out of the market. Obamacare devastated my finances, so sorry Zeke, you’re not arguing from the same experience as we, though I’m not denying your experience.
Not familiar with how much time we are given to edit comments here, but was going to edit the last sentence in my earlier reply, to say “This simplistic “either..or” logic permeates modern critical though leading to faulty conclusions.”
This was a staple philosophical approach (along with pragmatism) I discovered while doing Philosophy minor coursework. I’ve been able to apply it in the most complex arguments and find it very helpful (for me at least).
Yeah I am not on the same page in this regard with you and/or Dr Joseph P. Farrell, whatever the reasons. On the one hand I am staunchly against all authoritarian extremes (fascism/communism equally both), on the other hand I am pro voluntarily working in groups and alliances for more effective benefit to everyone. Nevertheless I found value in his overall perspectives, especially dealing with Nazi International, and have supported Giza Death Star via becoming a full member.
As you well know, this has been a long term goal of the communists who have been destroying this nation from within.
