Perhaps it is not very clear... by "lightweight" I mean efficient at doing what needs to be done (and only what needs to be done)... yes, that includes a single payer healthcare system if you ever want to get healthcare costs inline with other developed countries (but perhaps you are different and you like paying a lot more and you like dysfunction?). Sounds more like common sense to me than a joke.josh wrote:I say bring on big government. I need them to create a new agency (very efficient one though) that will process the payment of my car, cell, and property tax bills. I want the bill sent to everyone who make $1 more a year than I do. I challenge anyone to argue that I do not have a right to the house I want, the car I want, or the cell phone I want. ALL are necessities in today's society. There is surely a greater good involved when I am housed properly and can communicate as I want. It says in the COnstitution that the government can take care of those things for me. NO matter that the FOunder's didnt list those. That was soooo long ago...as if they could even know. sheesh
Now THAT is funny.
No wonder you are so confused... you are repeating GOP garbage again. Here's a hint: what the GOP claims non-GOP'ers & "liberals" want is not what they really want. Don't believe the BS that the GOP and related talk shows spew.

In fact, I bet that if the govt would just pass a law that said that everyone must purchase a cell phone, then the cost of my cell phone would probably come down in price. A win/win for everyone.

Well josh, that seems to be the underlying problem... you can't tell the difference between what makes sense for the gov't to do and what doesn't. The only thing I think you understand is national defense.

Then I guess national defense is like cell phones too.Pipeline wrote:Under your socialist idealism, we deserve both, or we deserve neither.
No, that's under your socialist idealism, because I never said that.Pipeline wrote:Not having read the constitution lately, I think that sacred document does provide for National Defense. Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm sure you will.
I think you are right on this last point (1 for 3 - congrats!). They realized there were activities the gov't needed to do because otherwise it wouldn't be done very well, or done at all.

Probably better to just listen to someone with common sense.
