I was hoping we could discuss socialized education versus universal health care (socialized or not) without getting tangled up in words like "liberal", "progressive", "conservative", etc. My bad for being so naive.
God forbid we seek out common ground and share new ideas!

No worries, Punafish,
I just put out the idea of possibly getting some free medical personnel from Cuba, since that's their main export. Glad to see folks talking about group financing of health care as it's always cheaper to buy things in bulk.
Some very good posts on that topic, btw.
Finding common ground and discussing new ideas seems to be a hallmark of this site. That's the aloha spirit for you.
