Hah, goes to show what you know. The last of the Witchcraft Acts were repealed in 1951! (seriously, not kidding there, 1951, think about it).

You've made an excellent point. 1951 is embarrassingly late.

I'll do you one better. Lobotomies weren't restricted by the US government until 1977. Even the USSR had banned them in 1950.

Yet still, supposedly informed and intelligent Americans are falling all over themselves to give our government a larger role in our healthcare. What does that say about that group? Are they even less evolved than witch burners?

I'm sorry, dear, but comparing people who thought it was perfectly acceptable to torture men, women, children and animals to death in the name of their hysterical religious beliefs isn't quite comparable to the government becoming involved in the business of healthcare.

That being said, I'm pretty sure I've stated before that I'm truly sorry FDR died when he did. If he had gotten his Second Bill of Rights passed, NONE of this would even be a point of discussion.

I happen to believe that in a civilized society healthcare is part of the community package. Funny, every native culture had teachers, hunters, healers, craftsmen, and everyone worked together to make the community work and thrive. Everyone was educated, everyone had a home, everyone who needed to be cared for was (contrary to modern myths, the elders of the tribe were not thrown out, they were the counselors to the leaders, and the teachers of the younger generations, their experience and intellect was respected).

Fast forward a few centuries, and now we have arrived at a place where only those who can pay for education, housing, healthcare, deserve it, period. Fuck your fellow man, screw him for all he's worth, take from him what you can, work your employees until they're so stressed they fantasize about shooting you in your sleep, and make money, money, money and bitch about helping those who aren't as fortunate, intelligent, ruthless or flat out greedy as you.

I hate this fucking civilization.

LOL!

I've gained some insight into the MM world.

1) Burning you at the stake = bad

2) Jamming a scalpel up through your eyesocket and scrambling your brain until you are a vegetable = A OK

I'll chortle about that all evening.

So true.

I just can't resist gigging people who ignore the facts in front of them simply because it contradicts their world view.

I don't think the specific poster is all that important, but I do confess -- I miss my RedRetard.

Um, no.

You're comparing apples to pinecones. They both bear the seeds of plants, they both have somewhat roundish shapes, but there the similarities end. I will not and cannot hold a discussion, never mind debate, equating torture and execution committed in the name of spiritual beliefs with outmoded medical therapeutic treatments.

I could list not hundreds, but thousands of medical procedures that were once considered "cutting edge" and are now looked upon in horror.

See, the whole argument that government overseeing the business end of medicine will revert medical procedures to barbarism feels strongly to me of the arguments fundamentalists use that if we allow gay marriage then next people will be marrying animals and pedophilia will become common practice.

There are many, many people who stand to lose a whole lot of money if the government steps in and stops the financial abuses that take place in the name of medicine.

People screamed about the Pentagon's $500 hammer and $900 toilet seats, WTF about a hospital's $10 Advil? How about my husband's $6,000 EEG and $8,000 EEGs for his CPAP monitoring?
