You have a pretty active imagination.

And you clearly don't understand the meaning of the term 'socialist'
which has zero to do with a single-payer insurance pool.

But that's par for the course, it seems, for trump supporters.
Like all lefties, you're simply a liar. Nothing new here.

This is really weird.

My newsreader says I’m reading rec.woodworking but it seems
like I’m reading alt.home.repair. Strange. Must be a bug.

No problem, DerbyDad. Just wait un til the Demorats get around to their
Medicare single-payer system.

What I'm waiting for is a time when people can have a on-line discussion without
using terms like Demorats, Rethuglicans, lefties/liars, MAGA maggots, etc.

You know, like the type of discussion that most people - even those participating in
this discussion - have when face-to-face with their family, neighbors and co-workers.

I'm waiting for a time when people *type* the same thing that they would *say* if
they were in the same room with the person they disagreed with. Making the same
points, just making them in a civilized manner. Not grouping huge portions of the
population into one pile and then referring to them *all* with a derogatory term.

I'd bet all my woodworking equipment that the people who insult entire groups of
people end including someone very close to them - Grandma, Dad, Daughter, etc.
People to which they would never *say* what they typed if they were face to face
with that person.

One can hope, it is the ideal. People being people that hope is likely
never to come to fruition.
