Wow is that some fucked-up logic, or what? If we weren't forced to buy
insurance for our cars, insurance companies would have to work harder
to convince us that it's worth buying. Like making it cheaper for us.
But since we're forced to buy it, there's no point in even trying to

You can't drive a car legally in any state without having liability
insurance in place for the car.
That means (in theory) that everyone's car insurance is the lowest it
can possibly be because everyone is basically forced to obtain insurance
for their car. Everyone is paying into the system.
The single biggest problem with US health care is that many people elect

This bill is dead in the Senate.
Does the House Bill still have the kick Granny off the cliff provision
and the mandatory death counciling( encourage suicide) provision?

Is little Scottie still whinging on about car owners? Does he REALLY not get
that roads are not just for cars? He'd starve to death without roads, since
without them trucks wouldn't be able to bring his food into the city. Also,
buses need roads, too, or does he really think people shouldn't travel AT

No, it isn't. The Republican sponsored bill, which was also bad, would
have been a thousand times better than the Democrat/Socialist
sponsored bill that did pass.
You're asking me? I could only guess at the answer for a few states
that I have lived in. My current state (NY) is too liberal to come up

I don't keep spam, but you're welcome to collect whatever floats your
boat.
I use Individual, as you'd know if you had half a brain. I pay them a
grand total of 10EUR/year. Yeah, that's the reason I hate AIOE,
because I pay so much for Usenet service instead of using a "free"
spam and kook encrusted service that too many have blocked. Yeah,

Um, please re-read what I said.
I was not saying that a solution should or must originate and be
enforced at the federal level. That certainly DOES NOT HAPPEN in
Canada. That's not the way it works here.
I was saying that because of the fractured way the US operates at the
state level, there is no hope that this issue of healthcare reform would

You klowns either work for one of the fee-based usenet servers or you're
trying to justify why you pay money to them. Either way, your attempt
to smear aioe is pathetic.
Go ahead - prove it to me.

You can't even lie properly.
Individual.net started charging on April 1, 2005.
What kind of game do you want to play, comparing it's service down-time
pre-2005 with AIOE post 2006 ?
Do you have nothing better to do then to raise straw men to argue with?

Not even close. I don't know of any government that doesn't subsidise
road infrastructure from central taxes.
Maybe you do, but I'm talking about the planet earth.
Studies have been done, and you're right, the market price is much
less than the actual cost, particularly if you include the cost of

That's ok, once people have to pay the full cost of driving, many will
decide it isn't worth the cost.
And when they can't drive anymore, they'll all get back on the buses.
