Mandatory healthcare coverage was a creation of
REPUBLICANS? They were pushing it for years
before the Democrats agreed to it?

First implemented by Romney in Massachusetts. Abroad they have
been doing it for decades. It's nothing new, really.


And in just about all those countries, it's been the prime cause of
financial hemorrhage of their economies

Yes, often it hasn't been as cheap as initially projected, but
"financial hemorrhage" - hardly. I think that the banking and housing
sectors have been more "guilty" than the medical reforms. Canada is
doing fine, I believe. Holland is doing (comparatively) fine, and MA
isn't doing too badly either.

Both living under the military umbrella of the US.

And 2 of the countries that are grateful for that.

Perhaps I should have substituted "freeloading" for "living".
