And I agree that Americans have this "it won't happen to me" outlook on life, but that is no one's fault but their own.
1) The government should not pay for universal health care.
2) When an individual has a child, that individual should be responsible enough to take care of that child under ALL circumstances.
3) It should not be America's duty to make up for poor decisions made by individuals.
4) Do away with welfare. It makes Americans more lazy. Socialism makes Americans more lazy (i.e. welfare).
5) Doctors earn the right to make what they make by not having as long of a life expectancy as they would if they weren't a doctor. They earn the right by trading their lives through their dedication and pledge of serving others.

Poor decisions? How about living in trailers in twister country? Huh? Why don't we just ignore their problems too? That's Socialism(helping them.)Geedubbya got real generous when he saw their torn up trailers.All the sudden he turned a part-time Socialist and said "The Government can help too." Capitalism would be to round them up,and tell them they are now fkd.Time to rake leafs for your rich doctor dad......Hurry up,two or three people on this block need leafs raked up.
