Whenever the issue of the poor quality of education is brought up, what is the solution? Throw more money at it. Raise taxes to pay for it. This happens in spite of the fact that it is not hard to figure out that more money does not equal better education (most money spent per pupil is Washington DC, where they rank at the bottom of the spectrun in terms of results).

With medicare and medicaid, the cry is that not enough money goes to it. I have no doubt that the solution to any problem will be, as with every other government run bureaucracy heavy aspect of the government, will be to throw more money at it.

There will be taxes placed on fatty and sugary foods because they increase the cost of government health care for everyone. Just as now with tobacco. Let's start a government required exercise program as well to ensure good heart health. The scenarios are endless and not too hard to believe when you look at what is being done with legal tobacco products (and I hate being around smoking), which I despise.

I understand insurance very ISM. I'm not sure what you're getting at.
