10 years ago that was true. Today, Drudge has a bigger audience than CBS. Needless to say, jammies isn't drudge. Uh. Popularity of the author (site) has nothing to do with the quality of the actual argument. So I take it you are unable to refute the arguments presented? I'm not going to sit through...

Yeah, cause unlike the mainstream media, bloggers might use faked documents and crafty editing of video as evidence :roll: Nobody cares enough about what the bloggers have to say to undertake any serious challenge of its factual basis. That's not the case for mainstream media. 10 years ago that was...

...cultural dominance aside... This kind of thinking is what gets us into trouble. What makes you think that the U.S. culture is 'dominant'? Have you been out in the world? The places I've been overseas have pretty much uniformly been different, culturally, from the U.S.. The U.S. movie industry ex...

The fact that the dollar is a reserve currency has allowed the US to overconsume and export much of the harmful effects of the inflation. China has quite enough mortgage backed securities and other US junk bonds and they have quite enough US treasuries that will be paid back in devalued dollars. Wh...

I still have that other question. I'm being generous and saying life expectancy is equal. I'm told superior levels of technology from superior levels of spending means the USA cancer survival rate is 3x to 5x superior to socialist western countries. So if life expectancy is the same something else ...

Out of curiosity, if the US health care system works just fine, why is there a sufficiently large movement/majority determined to change it. If the cancer survival rate is higher than anywhere else, and life expectancy comprable, something else must be killing off Americans at a much higher rate. T...

Next, why would a public option strangle medical innovation? A better mousetrap is a better mousetrap no matter who buys it. Are they buying at a price so the developer can make a good profit or are they paying just enough to cover the marginal cost? Incentives make a difference. So are you now cla...

Socialism means worse outcomes for everyone. You seem to want to strangle the world's main source of medical innovation. Do you realize how many people that would kill? We also do less rationing than Europe, when you consider marginal cases. By 'marginal cases' I think you mean extremely uncommon a...

I am not even asking for socialised healthcare. All I want is health insurance for a reasonable price. If you are asking to pay less than the cost of the service who will be making up the difference? Why does the service cost more in the U.S. than it does elsewhere? I think the answer is that deman...

Universal health care is not about "saving lives" its about controlling people. Attacking people who oppose it with demonization tactics is typicaly socialist Alinsky methods and dont belong here. I would argue that you're engaged in demonizing a public option by calling it socialist, and claiming ...
