[QUOTE="caliberbob, post: 4160476, member: 54457"] I don’t see how anyone in their right mind could advocate for socialized medicine run by the government. Our FICA portion would go up on our paychecks. Wage increases would slow or pause because employers having to pay their 50% of FICA taxes. Look at social security. People working 40 years to get their shekels. Government mandates what they pay paycheck in taxes and then government decides how much they get per check in retirement. Oh and keep increasing the age and the varying amounts they can draw at different ages. It’s pathetic. The socialized medicine topic opens Pandora’s box for conversation about taxes and government in general. Income tax, property tax, fica, it’s all theft. I told my kids not to let cute words like “deposit”, “fee”, etc fool you. Any money you give the government is a tax and we are taxed far more than we get in returned services. Government sucks at everything it does [/QUOTE]
