SeymourHiney mr_zoot James628 Democrats are saying baisicly its a right to have other people pay for your health care, just like a certain party that will remain nameless once proudly fought for their right to make african-americans tend their feilds... indeed the roles of the dems and rep's have definitely switched. Imagine...the Rep's used to be the liberals lol! I don't think anyone is saying its a right.....its just beneficial to society, so we vote for it. THat's all. How is government control benficial to society? Some government control is necessary. If you don't believe that, then you don't believe in any government and are therefore an anarchist. A simple one, government control of prices during a crisis. If you've never been in a natural disaster, you haven't seen how many people try to rip others off. Businesses are not allowed in most states from price gouging because it's unfair to the people. Laize-fair capitalism would say that's alright, but that might make the disaster worse since some people would be reduced to stealing and looting. In looting, unless steps are immediately taken to stop it, it shows that group of people is not equal to the general population.

SeymourHiney Kaim Arouet Didn't a different bill get passed actually? This one got shot down and another 80+ pages got added, if I'm correct. No, this is the bill that passed the House. They may have added 80 pages, but I don't know. If they added extra pages, then this isn't the one that passed the house. See, that's how addition works, adding something to an original amount changes the original amount.

I'm not saying government is all bad, just too much of it is. There have to be limits. I think George Washington said it best when he said: "Government is not reason, it is not eloquence – it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and fearful master."

Your question was "How is government control benficial to society?'' All I did was answer that, I didn't say there should complete government control or anything like that. Nice try, straw man.

He said he thinks that Health Care Reform is beneficial to society. I think that it's just a government takeover, hence the "How is government control beneficial to society?" question. Maybe I should have specified on what I thought about it.
