 Yet you won't give up medicare, will you?

 Marxism has never been tried anywhere in this world. OTOH,
 socialism has been tried repeatedly. Sometimes it succeeded,
 sometimes it failed, but it has never been without it's
 capitalistic elements.

 Nationalized health care has succeeded everywhere it has been
 done. Some countries has lower levels of success, some have
 higher, none show results worse than the American health care
 system.

 BTW, the American health care system is likely to collapse if
 the economy keeps falling the way it is. What will you do then?

 JF>   illegal alien's children, passed yesterday,

 The bill Obama signed provide health care to children of *LEGAL*
 immigrants. Some are pushing to extend it to illegal immigrants,
 but that hasn't passed yet that I have heard of.

 OTOH, do you think the children of illegal immigrants should be
 allowed to die rather than cover them?

 My answer is, provide the coverage, but bill the employer for
 the cost of the health care. And deport them.

 BTW, the children of illegal immigrants may also be themselves,
 US citizens. So they would be covered anyway.

 JF>  ultra high taxation to pay for it all,

 There is no "ultra high taxation" in that bill, except in the
 imaginations of those who believe in the free lunch.

 That is a condemnation of Bush, and his republican co-horts.

 Does education depend on cultural beliefs for truth? Truth
 should be the standard.
