I'm sure the reason cost is so high is because of medicare and medicaid even though the CBO specifically says that those are failing because the cost to cover a person is increasing :roll:

Cost is rising because innovations in more expensive treatments and drugs raises faster than people's ability to pay

These new innovations cost everyone with insurance more because the insurance companies raise their rates to cover the possibility of someone needing the new treatment

Don't even try comparing modern healthcare to the 60's, the difference between today's healthcare and even healthcare back in 99 is very different

The free market has failed horribly to control the cost of healthcare in the past 2 decades and the current system is failing because our government refuses to tell insurance and pharmaceutical companies to go **** themselves

Or maybe it's geographic isolation, combined with most of our adversaries lacking strong navies. Just a thought.

And the British, who did have a strong Navy, invaded in the War of 1812.

I'm really sure the nazis were too scared of some rednecks with shotguns to invade America :roll:

How will he develop a credit score for future investments like a house or car if he doesn't use any credit?

Get one credit card and use is extremly responsibly

Not only can you pay cash for a house, you typically get it cheaper when you do so.

Yah if you want to put away a couple of grand in high return investments

But he will need a good credit score if he wants a house before he is 40-50

to the OP: it takes time to build a credit score and if you're around 30 and want to mortgage a house, you won't be able to if you never use credit. By using credit responsibly now, you'll have more options when your older

[QUOTE="Oblivionfan10"]Well, every party does have its looniesDelsage

I do believe that Glenn Beck is far from loony. Angry at the Liberals who think that Universal Health Care is free or will be the greatest thing in the world, than yeah I would agree to that.

I hate libertarian nutjobs that think that our healthcare is the greatest in the world. I hate that we pay an average of twice as much for healthcare. I hate that we pay more in terms of GDP in terms of Healtcare than any modern country. I hate that our healthcare costs will go from about 16% of the GDP to 20% by 2017. I hate that 60% of all bankruptcy is caused by healthcare cost. I hate that Healthcare cost on average raises twice as high as the rate of inflation.

and most of all I hate toads like Glenn Beck telling/lying to people that everything is fine and their healthcare troubles will be solved if they just work harder and let the belevolent insurance companies keep holding their health hostage

Weed has been known for a long time to relieve people's addictions to other drugs

Rap Chop is the jam

Glenn Beck is a salesman

He projects his image of the everyman and parades himself around with a noose to hang the corrupt washington politicians in one hand and sells his new book with the other
