My younger brother Jeff is the shame of the Degan family. He not only lives in France, he actually likes it there. He has a French wife and two gorgeous little French daughters. Honestly I think the guy is a closet commie. Back in August, in a letter to his fellow countrymen and women regarding health care, he ended it by saying:
“In short, in the US, you pay more, get less, and die younger than we do in Europe. What part of that don’t you understand?”
Well, hey there! That’s a danged good question! What part of that don’t we understand? Why is it that so many of us have to be dragged, kicking and screaming like half-witted little preschoolers, into the brave new world of change? What the hell is the matter with us anyway? How can it be that such a huge number of Americans cheerfully join movements of mass stupidity and salivate on cue to the sound of Dr. Glenn “Pavlov” Beck’s bell? It kind of makes you wonder, huh?

Ahh, I see. So, those of us who oppose the government takeover of a huge chunk of our economy, and the resulting scarcity and rationing that will ensue after government planners discover they can’t allocate resources efficiently like a free (or even semi-free) market can, and the destruction of research and innovation that formerly promised new treatments and cures, and the bureaucratic intrusion into our personal and business matters, and the head tax to support the whole stinking mess, we’re just a bunch of half-witted little preschoolers who have to be dragged kicking and screaming into doing what our betters deem to be best for us.
Good luck winning debates with dismissive and demeaning arguments like that. Then again, when you’re a Progressive, you don’t have to be persuasive – you just have to find the right procedural loophole to ram through your bill while blithely dismissing all counterarguments and opposition to it.
If France’s healthcare system is so much better than ours, and they are so much more grown up and smart and all, why are you here? Why aren’t you over there, living the good life with your shameful brother?

Even if that were true, and it’s not, (we do pay more out of pocket but we live longer and have better care comparing apples to apples) I would not care. They may want or enjoy socialism in France but we prefer to be free from government intervention into our lives here in America…at least most of us do for now. Free marketeers like myself will continue to preach the truth about what government intervention does to business, the economy, freedom ingenuity and jobs.
