[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We also have great healthcare. But I’ve also been in the position of having none, and so I know what that’s like. It’s an ethics question. You have to decide what your values are. Are you willing to put aside your own interests for the greater common good? [b]Most people in this country are not. And so here we are. [/b][u][/quote] Nailed it. American exceptionalism my A**. Our "rugged individualism" IMO is just another way of saying irredeemably selfish. [/quote] That's why they call it "American exceptionalism" -- that the whole "I've got mine screw you" attitude causes people to do better for themselves and not care about others. I've stated this before.. when it comes down to money, it's about "I I I". Greed, pure and simple. That's why universal healthcare can't take off in this country. It's a whole paradigm shift, and many Americans want to hold onto the "American exceptionalism" (ie, I I I) instead.[/quote]
