"Sticks and stones" [
)] All kidding aside, Im beginning to feel sorry for you.Your comments have drawn a portrait of you. Now I see what you are up against.
COMMENT:
Well, I'd like cancer to disappear from the face of the Earth, with all that implies. If wishes were horses, then beggers would ride.
Wishing that cancer were not an "industry" (ie, subject to free market rules to some extent) is about as wise as wishing that food and housing and transportation were not "industries." Good luck, Comrade. It's the old Marxist dream of removing the free market from the table in solving a problem of human need for goods and services, and then seeing what happens.
If the entire 20th century has tought the world *anything,* it's that what happens is,.things go to Hell! In China in the 60's millions of people starved literally to death during a cultural revolution where they had removed food production from being an "industry". Much the same result as when Stalin had done so 30 years before. But China learned, and when they returned food production back to being an industry, they stopped starving. Amazing.
The even more amazing thing is that while China learned something from this (apparently), much of the West is forgetting. I talked to a doctor the other day, who had grown up in mainland China, then moved to Europe (Belgium), then Canada, then finally to the US, following the availability of biomedical research dollars. He commented that of the four countries in which he'd lived, the most socialist one was Belgium. Followed by Canada. THEN mainland China, followed by the US. What a sad commentary on the world.
There's no mystery about why removal of food production from being an "industry" and control by the government causes the masses to starve. Whereas having a government regulated private industry provides large amounts of cheap food (though not necessarily the healthiest diet, since what people want is not always whats' good for them). The reason is that when food is an industry, everybody participates. They vote with their dollars, and they get the ultimate democratic solution. It isn't perfect, but like democracy itself, it's rather difficult to see how to make it much better.
Much the same thing happens in medicine. When India removed their drug making capability from being an industry 40 years ago, the very act destroyed 95% of it. India became entirely an atrophied parasite, living on the rest of the world's drug development. When it came time for India to join the world's intellectual property laws, they had to start their drug development industry all over again, from the ground up. They (and their socialized government) had killed it. But I'm not sure they learned anything there. There's something about the British that makes them think medical care should be Communist. All over the former British empire you see the remains of this disease of thought. Show me a picture of the Queen of England on some country's money at any time, and I'll show you a people who think somebody else (anybody else) should be paying for their medical research. And in India's case, complaining that the ultimate socialist medical program (the UN's WHO) isn't giving them what they WANT, on somebody else's nickel (with WHO, that would be largely the US nickel).
Golly, who've have guessed THAT would happen?
Exactly! Why is the Locke-ian life and property protections the ONLY aspects that peoples' can assert as inherent rights to be protected? There is no outside agent to attribute what IS and IS NOT an inherent right, we just collectively ascribe a sanctimonious place for ones that we collectively feel are important... so, why isn't, in a first world nation, universal basic human health care such a right?
Edit: Also, CensoredBoardsSuck, where do you think the diminishing returns of favoring an oligarchy over a communist society begin? I'd say serving one all powerful master is as bad as serving a million of my fellow masters.
If the 20th century has taught us anything, it is unequivocal (i'll cite sources if you like), that in all industrialized nations utilzing a free market, wealth becomes increasingly concentrated in a small percentage of the population, while the vast majority of the population incur debt to buy goods/services from those few captains of industry.
I'm not saying socialism or communism are good alternatives to capitalism, but rampant "free market" capitalism in a global economy where the political structure of one country doesn't extend beyond its borders, though its economy does, obviously isn't the best system, either.

Smartest comment on here! I know these people who profit from the masses. They don't give a shit about the American people. They laugh at how stupid they are. There is nothing altruistic about their actions. They simply want more and more is never enough and they know to get more they must take it from someone else and they use their considerable wealth to ensure they will win the game.
This is only getting worse as time goes on....

Lulcat, the government cant do anything right. This is what people are mostly angry about. They mess up everything they stick their hands into. They will do it to healthcare also.
They are not even doing a good job of protecting us anymore.
If the aca is sooooooo great, why did they vote themselves out of it?
We will never come up with a perfect way to run an economy, its all flawed.
Sadly capitalism is the best thing going today.
It gives more opportunity to more people. Sorry not everyone can win, that will never happen, no matter what
Putz....accusing big business of destroying this country with greed is NOT a defense of government! THEY ARE ONE IN THE SAME and NEITHER ONE gives a shit about you! Failure to understand this is why MOST Americans are losing in life!
Nuncaquite, that is the dangerous logic I am talking about.
If you start laying the foundation for public policy on "what benefits the most of us" without thinking about inherent protections for the individuals, you begin a dangerous march towards Fascism... We see this already: The Patriot Act, NSA surveillance (PRISM/XKEYSCORE/EGOTISTICALGIRAFFE), secret FISA courts, the militarization of the police force, etc.
If you start rationalizing all of the government's policies with "Well, it benefits the whole, even if it is at the extreme cost of some", one day you wake up and the attitude of the nation has become "you're a liability on society" or "you don't contribute enough to the whole to have rights".
Just think about the foundation of the American justice system: it is wholly inefficient, yet it is based on principles that we Americans are supposed to hold sacrosanct: a trial by a jury of your peers, due process of law, that one is INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY. Think about that last aspect... we allow child-murderers, rapists, and pedophiles to go free when we don't have sufficient technical evidence to indict or convict them, because we hold it to be true that it is better to let 9 guilty men go free, than to jail one innocent man.
Principles, guys... in a matter of principle, the extent to which it inconveniences us or costs us is irrelevant. We can choose the cheaper policy because we are assholes, but that doesn't mean we are making a just choice.

“It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest. We address ourselves not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities, but of their advantages” - Adam Smith
“Every individual is continually exerting himself to find out the most advantageous employment for whatever capital he can command. It is his own advantage, indeed, and not that of the society which he has in view. But the study of his own advantage naturally, or rather necessarily, leads him to prefer that employment which is most advantageous to society... He intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was not part of his intention” - Adam Smith,
There is never going to be a "perfect" system and while socialism/communism obviously are a dead end for many reasons I think we are forced to deal with the fact that we are experiencing the inevitable negative consequences of capitalism - concentration of wealth/power. This concentration will continue unhindered until those at the top have it all and those at the bottom have nothing left....this will be followed by the collapse of society as we know it. It will take a catastrophic event to "redistribute" wealth back to the masses. All good things must come to end.....this may not be in my lifetime.....who knows.....but I don't think we can "solve" this problem.....just prolong the pain and hold off the inevitable as long as we can.

Oh come on Z you can't be that naive. You really believe the NIH funds the majority of medical research, NOT EVEN. For every drug which is a approved for therapeutic intervention AT LEAST ONE HUNDRED ARE DISCARDED and funded by BIG PHARMA.
For some reason I suspect your OK with BIG AUTO being financed in a multitude of areas from "crash science" to "environmental controls" by the Feds however.
The NIH does fund a considerable portion of health related research from drinking water to drugs.
Please maintain your well grounded objectivity, my friend.

"Wealth of Nations" works fine to outline the basic fundamentals of capitalism/mercantilism, but in a world with a global economy, yet not a global government that all work under, it falls apart. Free market choice works well, as with democracy, when the people are informed of who their services are provided by and when they have alternatives. A great example of the lack of free choice in the market place is in news media... 6 corporations own 90+% of ALL NEWS OUTLETS.
Infographic Of The Day: The Mega Companies Behind 90% Of Media | Co.Design | business + design
For example, the same company that owns FOX NEWS owns the Wall Street Journal. The greatest advancement in marketing has been creating the illusion of choice.
You can't "vote" with your business in the market place to improve goods or services when the vast majority of wealth is centralized in the hands of a few... whatever way you buy, you benefit the Task Master.
EDIT: To be fair, I'm arguing these points because I think they are the closest approximation to the nature of the economy, however, I must say that I really don't have a dog in the fight. I am, as many of you are, intelligent and I have a great job in a burgeoning field... so, I don't really give a shit if the masses starve. However, it's important to me that we don't delude ourselves by saying that the system we see ourselves in is really all that grand.

We can argue politics and monetary systems indefinitely. The government just cant do anything right. They will make a mess of this, they are making a mess of this. Its what governments do.
Ok, insurance companies suck. I cant stand the bastards. There needs to be a change for sure. Direct government intrusion wont make it better. Look at the mess and debt they already have made of things. Now we turn over heath care to these dickheads?
That make sense to anyone?

Administration sources: Obamacare website received just 51,000 completed insurance applications | Mail Online
Obamacare's main signup engine attracted just 6,200 new customers on its launch day and 51,000 after the first week
At the same rate, the 6-month open enrollment period would sign up just 2 million Americans, including 14 states and D.C., which have their own insurance exchanges
The Congressional Budget Office says Obamacare needs at least 7 million customers to stay afloat financially
Numerous Obama administration officials have denied seeing any enrollment figures at all
MailOnline's sources are two Health and Human Services workers who have access to the data as it's crunched
Texas congressman says anemic national enrollment numbers are 'roughly the population of a small town in my district'
The open enrollment period for Obamacare coverage is slated to last for six months. If the first week's total were an indication of how many Americans will sign up during that time through the Obama administration's website, its final tally would reach a paltry 1.32 million.
Healthcare.gov provides enrollment services for Americans in 36 states; the remaining 14 states and the District of Columbia, which operate enrollment programs in their own exchanges, represent 33.7 per cent of the U.S. population, according to census projections.
If the state-run exchanges were to have a similar response rate for six months, the national enrollment total would be approximately 2 million.
That number is less than 29 per cent of the 7 million the Obama administration would need, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, in order to balance the new health insurance system's books and keep it from financial collapse.

ObamaCare Employer Mandate: A List Of Cuts To Work Hours, Jobs
612 Comments
By Jed Graham
Posted 02:13 PM ET
ObamaCare's impact on jobs is hotly debated by politicians and economists. Critics say the Affordable Care Act, with its employer mandate to provide health insurance, gives businesses an incentive to cut workers' hours. This year, report after report has rolled in about employers restricting work hours to fewer than 30 per week — the point where the mandate kicks in. Data also point to a record low workweek in low-wage industries.
In the interest of an informed debate, we've compiled a list of job actions with strong proof that ObamaCare's employer mandate is behind cuts to work hours or staffing levels. As of Oct. 17, our ObamaCare scorecard included 351 employers. Here's our latest analysis, exploring Indiana's new 10th Amendment challenge to the employer mandate. IBD also explained why the employer mandate will undercut the goals of ObamaCare — affordable, reliable coverage — even in cases when employers don't cut work hours. The ObamaCare list methodology is explained further in our initial coverage; click on the employer names in the list below for links to supporting records, mostly news accounts or official documents.
We'll continue to update the list, which we encourage you to share and download into a spreadsheet to sort and analyze. If you know of an employer that should be on the list and can provide supporting evidence, please contact IBD at
or @IBD_JGraham.

ObamaCare's impact on jobs is hotly debated by politicians and economists. Critics say the Affordable Care Act, with its employer mandate to provide health insurance, gives businesses an incentive to cut workers' hours. This year, report after report has rolled in about employers restricting work hours to fewer than 30 per week — the point where the mandate kicks in. Data also point to a record low workweek in low-wage industries.
In the interest of an informed debate, we've compiled a list of job actions with strong proof that ObamaCare's employer mandate is behind cuts to work hours or staffing levels. As of Oct. 17, our ObamaCare scorecard included 351 employers. Here's our latest analysis, exploring Indiana's new 10th Amendment challenge to the employer mandate. IBD also explained why the employer mandate will undercut the goals of ObamaCare — affordable, reliable coverage — even in cases when employers don't cut work hours. The ObamaCare list methodology is explained further in our initial coverage; click on the employer names in the list below for links to supporting records, mostly news accounts or official documents.
We'll continue to update the list, which we encourage you to share and download into a spreadsheet to sort and analyze. If you know of an employer that should be on the list and can provide supporting evidence, please contact IBD at
