KaskadskyjKozak Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 this is far worse: providing *fertility* treatment for someone that has 6 kids already is like giving ttk breast-augmentation surgery - and making the rest of us pay for the associated costs.

I don't get the unwed part though. well, if the Lord made her "infertile", than the Lord's work is to accept that. of course in this case, "infertility" is about as ridiculous as k-boner's average cc.com posting.

tvashtarkatena Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Why the f*** would someone with 6 kids be given *fertility treatment*. Does this exemplify what we have to look forward to -multiplied by an order of magnitude - with universal health care? linky Since you brought up the Universal Health Care issue, I just read a good article in the New Yorker on the subject. According to the article, the U.S. ranks 37th in the world in terms of the overall quality of its health care. It is the ONLY industrialized country in the world that does not yet have Universal Health Care. The rhetoric, such as the quoted example above, and the ignorance it reveals about how Universal Health Care in other countries works is common. Many assume that our present system, which many employed and covered people are reasonably happy with (unless they lose their jobs and/or contract a condition that isn't covered, of course), will be destroyed and replaced with Soviet style long lines and dirty, re-used needles. This is simply not a view of reality. All the world's civilized countries that enjoy universal health care, save ours, of course, built their systems incrementally on their pre-existing health care systems, and they are all unique. Nearly all of them are enormously successful and popular, as well. If such an incremental, build on what you already have approach were employed here, the move to some form of Universal Health Care in the U.S. would probably not be even noticed by the majority of already covered individuals here. Such a move would eliminate the massive, inherent cruelty that is systemic in our health care system today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
