    Using your brand of logic, you could reason that it benefits us all if the non-productive, retired, senior citizen would just die sooner

    The real problem with Malcolm's logic is that it leads to government being used to give the public anything that the public and government can imagine. One of the main reasons we have a constitution is to keep that type of logic out of government.

    Exactly.


    Not to mention you would have a hard time explaining how taking money from hard working, productive, citizens, who have some form of health care already and using it to provide for never working, unproductive, leaches to society is a good thing "in general" to the welfare of our nation

    You ever notice that no matter how many times you mention that no individual is entitled to the wealth of another...no matter how many ways and how many times you bring up that point the libs never have anything even resembling a logical argument as to why the feel they are? I mean, seriously...they literally don't even try to defend their position. I guess deep down even they in their delusional little universe realize that there is no rational defense for that stance.

    That's the logical door they don't want to open.
    The ambassador died, Obama lied.

    That explains why they have run from the argument
