[quote name="Lizard_King"][quote name="I need clarification"] I'm asking whether you consider 76 million uninsured kids a good thing or not. [/quote] YES! NO! Come on, that's below your usual standard for rhetorical questions. 76 million is not a "good thing"; 1 uninsured poor kid is not a good thing. But it is a statistic that is meaningless without knowing what is meant by poor, how that relates to past rates, and what that concretely means for these kids (most children are either healthy or screwed, what % is which). [quote]I'm asking why everyone keeps saying "Amurca doin' GREAT!" as our prison population expands faster than any other segment. [/quote] Also, what about the spotted owl? I'm not sure what that has to do with healthcare. Are you saying MORE TAXES, LESS CRIME? There are many ways I could think of to slash that prison population, beginning with decriminilization of vice, but I don't see either party reaching out to touch that. [quote]I'm asking if you really don't think we're headed to an "economic distortion" of our own that massive tax cuts and slashes in basic social services is only going to accelerate.[/quote] Is cutting taxes during an unprecedented boost in spending stupid in the short run? Obviously. Is it the catastrophe the left would like it to be? No. Just as Clinton was only tangentially related to the good times, Bush is only a part of the economic formula. [quote]I'm asking, really, if you even give a fuck.[/quote] NO U COMMIES HAVE MONOPOL1 ON CARING. I'M GOING TO GO FEAST ON POOR INFANT CARCASSES.[/quote]
