Personally, I don't believe that the Federal government should have any involvement in healthcare. Why not? Is it skepticism about costs and results?

Just heard on the newz the latest models have it turning away from Virginia and clobbering Georgia instead. Crack meterologists at Orkin are telling us to prepare for about 5 or so inches of rain Friday and Saturday. I am sure this will change when REAL God realizes I might make it out of this okay and the storm will turn again and my trailer will float away with me tied to the roof.

Funny enough I just realized we have a fucking night game FS Larry Scott. I have concert tickets so I will be SOL on watching the game live. I will be on social media and phone lock down until I get home and can watch Jake Browning blow our chances at a PAC12 title on a recording.

Wow, who would have ever guessed that Federal government would create perverse incentives that cost the tax payers billions. If you can't get private insurance there is no fucking way that the Federal Government should be offering it. Thanks liberals. I dunno, I think a lot of federal insurance programs have worked out okay, considering all the pros and the cons:FDICMedicareMedicaidTerrorism Risk Insurance ProgramFederal Crop Insurance CorporationThere are a lot of fair criticisms to be made of many federal insurance programs and the perverse incentives or moral hazards they might create. Of course, that's true for private insurance programs too. Economic theory has long recognized these problems in the private-insurance context. But it doesn't follow that federal (or private) insurance programs should be eliminated. We'll just have to disagree on how great Medicare and Medicaid have worked out. Both programs are financial disasters. The cost of Medicare alone in 1965 was estimated by the government to be $500 million a year. In 1965 dollars that would be a little less than $4 billion a year today. Last year we spent over $700 billion on Medicare up from $425 Billion just ten years early. Yeah, that's worked out just fucking great.Our biggest Federal expenditure right now is for Medicare and Medicaid. Wut? Why am I not surprised you didn't fact check your own claim.As for DeMint’s other figure, he uses the slippery word “likewise” to suggest that his next figure is a similar comparison. But what he is actually doing is plucking a 1965 figure — $500 million a year — and suggesting that was also a prediction for 1990. The quote — that Medicare Part B would require “federal appropriations of about $500 million a year from general tax revenues” — is not from a budget document but appears to come from an obscure and relatively minor New York Times article that appeared on March 11, 1965. But it was not a 50-year estimate, like the previous statistic.Califano also mentions the $500 million number in his article. He says that this was the price of getting the Medicare bill out of the Senate Finance Committee — to “agree to pay hospitals on a cost-plus basis, and doctors’ fees that were ‘reasonable,’ ‘customary’ and ‘prevailing’ in their communities, thereby giving physicians the power to raise their own fees.”https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/news/fact-checker/wp/2013/10/21/jim-demints-claims-about-medicare-cost-estimates-from-1965/ You're such a lying dumbfuck Hondo. Now where did I say that the $500 Million figure was a prediction of what it would cost in each year going forward.

Or are there additional reasons (freedom of individual choice, concerns about government dictating care and behavior)? Some combination? Beyond the federalist argument, as I have argued ad nauseam elsewhere, the government is stupidly inefficient. Centrally planned, or socialist, markets time and again fail to deliver efficient results. They produce higher costs, poorer service, lower utility, and less access. They lead to all kinds of moral hazards, free riders, and perverse incentives. It's also a prime way to create incentives for corruption in government and rent seeking among many other pitfalls.I just illustrated yesterday? how correlated rising healthcare costs(both public and private) are with the passage of medicaid, medicare, and government involvement in the market. It's called crowding out.P.s. I am pretty sure that I can make arguments against every insurance program you cited and that many of the failings you most likely subscribe to the free market are actually stage 2 or higher economic effects of those very government programs.

Sandford and Plessy v. Ferguson, respectively, in arguing it has become an example of Richard Primus's "Anti-Canon",[6] a term for those cases which are so flawed that they are now taken as exemplars of bad legal decision making.[7][8] The decision has been described as "an odious and discredited artifact of popular bigotry"[7] and as "a stain on American jurisprudence".[9]All that being said. The SCOTUS has upheld the welfare clause for 200 years. While those were one time decisions. And I think citizens United will be overturned at some point as well.

Go ahead and find for me the 200 year old SC case that upholds your belief that "General Welfare" included paying for an individuals healthcare or retirement or housing. Hell find me a ruling prior to the 1930s that supports that belief. Now go run and hide dumbfuck.
The Hondo method.Talk out you ass, get called on it, back track, and now the strawman ass fuck is coming. Your "point" was that your interpretation of the meaning of "General Welfare" had been upheld by the SC since our founding. You lied Kunt.
