Name a single government program that isn't bankrupt. Given the governments history of running things into the ground, what do you base your faith in their ability to run this properly?

If I had Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, USPS, AmTrak, as my resume, I'd never get a job, they're all bankrupt and government run. So why is it anyone trusts the government to do anything efficiently? I'll base my opinion on their record, not what they say. Anyone that wants you to buy into something too quickly has something they're hiding.
So, what you are saying is you trust private insurance monopolies and their spin-offs????? Frankly, albeit I have minimal trust in the government at this point, I still have more trust in it then the private insurance racket. We can change the government and its will, but corporations with the rights that only an individual should have, I don't trust as far as I can spit. Kind of like Glenn Beck hawking gold. :jointsmile:
gypski Reviewed by gypski on . Democrats Forge Historic Agreement on Health Care The repubs had me thinking they won but alas we got it done and will finally start to rein in health care costs. So far they say it will save $136B the first ten years and more in later decades. Bring on the repubs in 2010. Rating: 5
