Seriously, has anyone ever heard of health insurance? Something that I wouldn't leave home without. Maybe you people have forgotten what the whole purpose of capitalism is. I think it would nice to note at this point the *ideal* communism is when all support the welfare of every one else. I won't say that ideal communis is bad, but it seems that there are enough hard-nose, out and out Republicans in this group to make the idea unattractive. How about if we just quit arguing about what the government is supposed to give us and what it isn't. If the government is supposed to "give" us everything that some arbitrary person decides we "need" then why don't we all just say that the government supports all of us, that they are the great provider, that we are all government employees. Is this what you want to say? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Andy Banta {decvax!allegra!ihnp4}!pur-ee!pucc-k!agz Dept. of Mental Instability, Purdue University --- "I'm OK, You're a CS Major" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "A new car, caviar, four-star daydream, Think I'll buy me a football team ...
