[QUOTE="speakeasy, post: 443489, member: 28"] I look at it like insurance. We've all paid into the system. We may hit hard times and need to help at some point in our lives. As secure as you may think you are, you are only one major health problem from bankruptcy. Yes, even if you have insurance. Don't even get me started on that one. It's not about the government being a nanny, it's about having a safety net. A baseline of poverty that we're willing to tolerate so that we don't have sick, barefoot, starving kids standing in Times Square begging for money like you'd have in the third world. [/QUOTE]
