I can hardly even begin to enumerate the floating premises you are laboring under when you make this statement. To begin with, if it were possible to "require" all people to "purchase" insurance, why didn't they do it without being forced to if it were so important to them? You are also implying that insurance companies are private. :P

Communism has never not become corrupted because it is a system that engenders corruption. Don't try to tell me that the Soviet Union didn't start out as a perfectly honest attempt.

What you capitalist pigs seem to forget, is that you need the industrial reserve army to lower general wages. If you let them die, you wont earn as much.
If you feel dirty helping the poor, always remind you swine minds, they help you lower wages, you need em to perpetrate capitalism.
You wont feel as "socialist" as before.

Because the alternative, indeed, to social medicine, is that the proletariat dies. You got me there, Captain Strawman.

Before we even bother with further consideration of this, what rules which derive their authority from the 2A which attach only when a weaponmaker begins to make a weapon? If every weaponmaker decides to stop working, or even if they don't, you or I can make weapons. Is that the same with federal law on health care?

The Soviet Union became corrupted mainly due to war, starvation, isolation (not only did the revolution fail in Germany due to a treacherous Social democrat party, but 8 imperialist armies invading Russia along the White Army). 70% of the Bolshevist party leaders died during either the revolution or the civil war, and the rest were hunted by Stalin and his allies. With only the rightist pressures left, social, and economic ways of the peasantry were established, developing a bureaucracy.

It is in Argentina, we might suck in many things, but if you are dying, or you only have a red throat , you will get free care from the state. Be ready to wait 6 hours to get attention, or wait 4 months for an appointment, but hey, we are a third world country.

We could enslave the Mexicans and Canadians to pay off the debt, we're just generous enough not to :D

That same debt is causing you more problems than you would even know.
Even if you do pay off the debt, you would go into dept again knowing the country's history...

The human population in the world has far tipped the scale off balance for centuries...
But hey, video games "could" save the world...

Hey, that sounds like Sweden!

Way to miss the point, by the way. "Free care from the state" isn't free. Government, contrary to popular belief, cannot conjure wealth out of thin air.
