Maybe he gets it relatively cheaply because he's only in his late twenties.<br /><br />I'm wondering though how much he paid for his insurance (and also what his income is -- but hey, I wonder that about any right-wing libertarian).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691535.post-10762698009703987982010-10-11T04:17:07.500+08:002010-10-11T04:17:07.500+08:00Actually, the comment you left there is quite good...Actually, the comment you left there is quite good; don't be surprised if they avoid answering your questions because that's exactly the case in the US. (Although the fact that you're responding three years after the post was written may cause you to be ignored as well. ;) ) <br /><br />The question I might put to them would be whether they would be willing to forgo Medicare/Medicaid in the future, those being America's "socialized" medical insurance programs already in existence and paid for through social security taxes. One of the hypocrisies of the health care reform debate was seeing signs that both denounced "socialized medicine" but demanded the federal government to "keep their hands off of Medicare." They will never say no to such a pledge because practicalities will always trump their "principles."JDsghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04735390644321868222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691535.post-7879785886448347652010-10-11T03:47:52.020+08:002010-10-11T03:47:52.020+08:00How would you recommend I respond to one of the bl...How would you recommend I respond to one of the bloggers I read who <a href="http://depletedcranium.com/few-things-scare-me-like-universal-health-care/" rel="nofollow">condemns universal health care as "communist"</a>?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
