I got a minute in and already spotted two major flaws as I commented.

"1 minute in...

Accuse Shane of vagueness by responding with an equally if not more vague assertion.

Baldly declare a newspaper unreliable without backing up the statement.

If this is what I can expect as a recurring tendency in this vid, please tell me now so I can save myself 20 minutes and not watch further...

And let me guess, you compare Britain's healthcare to the US's even though NOBODY you are arguing with supports America's healthcare right?

I thought so.

F"
I recently heard that the word heretic is derived from the greek work heriticos which means "able to choose"
The more you know...

Well, if the comments are anything to go by, it's more of the same bullshit. These ignorant know-nothings actually think you don't get treated until the insurance pays! They have THAT level of ignorance, and they dare to insult us!

#16 in How To Tell A Dogmatist.

How did Micheal Moore not get sued for libel for claiming that hospitals toss you out on your ear if you can't pay?

But here's the interesting thing, the vid just happens to be on this quote before you play it.

"I'm no fan of the 'corporatist' system in the US right now, but one key difference is that the profit-mongers who dole out health insurance policies are at least kept in check by the government
This safety net is removed in the free market"

Wow, doesn't that just say it all?  Saves me the trouble of watching this tripe...

How did Michael Moore not get sued for libel in ANY of his movies?


Also, I'm laughing at the stupidity of that guy. I mean, basic logic suggests that if government is responsible for corporations having so much power, how in the blue hell is more government supposed to make things all better? STUPID STUPID STUPID!

Sadly, the big ol' man blocked me but I did get a fail quote vid out of the dealie.
