"I have yet to here what your ideas are, except to lower all the cost, but who do you think has the power to do that? My guess would be a government socialized program would be the only one, wouldn't you."--LeftBender

there's this wonderful thing you lip service conservatives abandoned long ago, called a free market, that's how. Damn, you have fallen completely for the liberal two-step, first get them conservatives to realize just how evil they are so we can get a program in there that will be run poorly for 40 years to serve those who can't afford something, then rather than scrap the crap that don't work and go back to what we know does work (and if you were a conservative you would know the free market works when not saddled with government intervention) You, liberal Hellbender (kind of like Bizzarro Superman) want to reward the failed government program with more of our money so they can continue to screw up the market forces that still exist within an entire industry.

I guess you failed free market capitalism, but sailed through socialism. Anyone can sail through socialism, because it has no end game and isn't based on results, it's based on feelings and state power. Meanwhile, free market forces are in play and will do what they do, if they are skewed by do-good government (do-bad government) the outcome is a travesty and you want to continue to compound the problem.

Name anything the government can do better than the free market, anything.

You can't, government can't do anything better than the free market, hence why some smart individuals created a limited government and here you are handing over more of the damn keys.

Damn liberal, Tanvat may be more conservative than you
