You are a lying POS. You have no respect for the rule of law.maineman » 29 Jan 2023, 12:06 pm » wrote: ↑ I am a proud, retired Naval Officer, an unrepentant capitalist, and a defense hawk who supports a strong, proactive, muscular military... and I support democratically approved social safety nets and I support a woman's right to chose. I am NOT a socialist.
I support expanding medicare to reach more people. Medicare is an effective and efficient program and American seniors love it. I can recall, during the tea party heyday of 2010, there was a rally and some old geezer had a sign that read, "Keep your socialist hands off my Medicare". Classic!! Nothing in Medicare makes doctors employees of the state. Nothing in Medicare places hospitals under government ownership. Medicare for all is simply an expanded safety net, which citizen in a representative democracy can vote to approve. It isn't SOCIALISM no matter how much you whine to the contrary.
