Me, I like the freedom to choose my healthcare provider and the freedom to choose another healthcare provider. I'm a private sector guy myself and I don't like the idea of being reliant on a bureaucratic system for all my healthcare needs.(10-13-2019, 10:40 PM)Classic-Xer Wrote:(10-12-2019, 10:02 PM)Eric the Green Wrote: It's amazing how you guys are still red baiting (even though metaphorically you guys are the reds now).

Uh, I like some "socialist" stuff like roads, post office, cops, firemen, rules to keep Big Oil from violating my property rights (my body), and our private healthcare system is broken. I'll take Medicare now, which really should begin at age 0 instead of 65. Oh, yeah, I want my Social Security, cause I don't know how old I'll to be.
So, what do the Republicans have on offer?
