[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think we should have better socialized medicine. It’s not capitalism all the way or we turn into Cuba. There is lots of middle ground. Western Europe does well with capitalism but has a much better ( not perfect) health care system and provides better for the elderly etc. [/quote] I would make the argument that socialized medicine would catalyze capitalism. Because it would capitalize entrepreneurship -- it's a lot easier to take risks in creating new businesses, etc. if you have the health care safety net. [b]In an employer-based health insurance system, people are afraid to leave their jobs[/b].[/quote] This is a feature not a bug. Capitalists don't care about creating a capitalist utopia for all - they care about growing their own wealth. Increased entrepreneurship is a threat to them. Companies have a significant incentive to promote socialized healthcare in the US, but they don't. Why do you think this is?[/quote]
