    New word filed away in memory. Thanks.

    But . . . what really is the difference in terms of failed morality?

    Air traffic control? Really, those are government agents up there in the towers right? The ones that bring thier kids to work and let them tell flights when to land and take off? Ok I'll give you that one

    Libraries? As long as the place doesn't burn down I really don't care if they know how to run a card catalog. The Dewey decimal system isn't that complicated, it sure isn't health care.

    The GI Bill, hoss I am on the GI bill right now and you do not want to know how screwed up it is.

    Should I go on? These are all drops in the bucket. The feds are not qualified nor ENTITLED to take this big of a chunk of everyones lives and make it their own.

    As for the centrist and the GOP, who knows what they will introduce but you can bet it won't be something that will tank us to the tune of a few TRILLION bucks. What you and the rest of the dems and libs don't get is no one is saying HC doesn't need reform, just not This bill. 73% of America says they want to start over. I'll go with them.

    ephobophilia, as we have just learned is not pedophilia, apparently because it isnt lusting after children but late adolescents.

    i um, i know a dude. and he yeah, he admits that 17 year old girls are hot sometimes. um, i dont really know him that well he is a sicko. yeah. not me.

    the way i see it, the sexy hotness doesnt happen after sexual maturity but at an arbitrary date on the calendar. jeebus, what am i, some kind of sick human mammal, designed by evolution to be attracted to fertility?

    So, if you see a 16-18 yr old girl dressed in a short skirt, crop top, with her chest heaving out of the top, and she happens to be very nicely built, with a very pretty face, it makes you a sicko for thinking she is hot? Now I can see if you act on it, yeh that’s sick.

    Now if you are hanging around your local High School I would say that definately puts you in this catagory, but just walking thru the mall while shopping not so sure you really have a problem.

    None, but in terms of ensuring the problem doesn't continue understanding its nature is important.

    Is it better than nothing? Nothing is what industry is willing to pay for your degree. The fact that government isn't perfect doesn't make it bad nor does private enterprise always step up to the plate.

    What are you talking about? Private insurance companies are going to be handling all this. There is no Canadian-style socialized medicine in it. There is no European-style single-payer system in it. There is certainly no Soviet-style state medical buerau that all the health providers work for. There is no public insurance left in the plan. What exactly does this "takeover" consist of? Do you really know?

    No offense, but I think you have a misplaced fear that the sky is falling, Chicken Little.

    The GI bill is not an entitlement. It's earned.
