2. Hahahahaha... They don't want "rules" for their food
AND they want government to stay out of their health care..

BUT

are they ok with their bosses charging them MORE for their health care, or for insurers denying them coverage?

wonder what they have to say about those things:)

5. Yes, because it's so much easier to let someone else do your thinking for you
than to have to come up with an opinion all my yourself. That's why talking points are so popular with the right wingers.

6. libertarians are ok with paying more if it's to a private company
just like the libertarian candidate who was also an evictor for Wells Fargo and was tossed in the klink for pulling a gun (another libertarian fetish) on the ex-homeowner; if a company does it, it's okay because they won their riches by hard struggle in the sacred market. government payment of medical bills would "distort the market" and give us healthcare inferior in quality to Cuba's, just like the minimum wage created 17% real unemployment

they also believe that regulation caused the '08 meltdown, because Thomas E. Woods told them so

the Paulistas modify this by saying we need "competition" and anti-monopolism, and everything will come out okay--but that's such a 1900s mentality, coz if we're going to have a government that ensures competition between corporations providing social services, why can't we have the gub'mint provide those same services--and guarantee their equitable distribution--by taxing the rich? and, then, why stop at mere New Dealism?
