Let me wake up and I'll try my best to answer these. But really no matter how I answer it won't really make sense to you guys. Just like how your setup doesn't make much sense to me.

Ask us what you like too.

My bit of the NHS is damn near perfect. But then I'm not allowed near sick people, which is probably a good thing.

"Pay a whole lot for health insurance and still get fucked when something serious happens" won't make much sense to us, no.

I'd stay as far away from sick people as I could if I were you. No use tempting fate, no use at all! :Y

>>Have I ever given the impression that I'm only looking out for me?

Yes, when you said you were American. (giggle)

Serious question though - how do you marry the idea of wanting Small Government with also wanting a Government to get involved and sort shit out?

I don't want the government involved to sort shit out. The only shit they need to sort is the fucking messes they create in the first place.

*the previous government.

You said up there^^^^

>>I have no idea why you, and the rest of the world think he's[Obama] doing such a good job.

So clearly you think he's doing a bad job. What is he doing badly, and what do you WANT him to do?

That doesn't necessarily mean Ken thinks he's doing a bad job, just not as good a job as 'the rest of the world' thinks.

Thanks.

He's done plenty of bad stuff, and not done much if any of the good stuff he promised, but he is not doing his level best to summon End Times, like the Repugs want. For most of humanity, that's good enough.

Don't forget that we also love knowing how angry it must make some sections of your society that that there's a black man in charge.

Not that we've been there, admittedly.

His society has nothing to do with it, he's Canadian (or at least living in Canada).

Damn, I couldn't remember - just I knew he was that neck of the woods.

Sorry for calling you American, dude :(

:O) 

It's only a lower level of care for that section of the public who don't have private health insurance, so they're probably quite interchangeable and not that important anyway.

Vote for me.
