In the same vein as the answer you framed above:

IF this were a slightly different world, and it would be possible to acheive either of these goals, which would be your best solution for providing equal opportunities to affordable healthcare for all. Specifically in America.

A) A fully funded gov’t. program where everyone has the same coverage, and everything is administered/ overseen by the gov’t.

OR

B) Abolish the entire insurance industry, so everyone could pay as they go.

Please discuss, as I’m very interested in your take on it.

Oldguy, 30 years in, do you think that the sanctions on Iran are ever going to result in a government acceptable to the global community?

Personally, I think humans are just a step in evolution and that evolution is about to change from purely biological entities to cyborgs. But that just may be me…

Ahh..this opens up a good question (for pure fun): So are the Cylons in Battlestar Galactica (the new series, not the old) human? Meaning, what exactly makes us human vs a machine that is capable of thought and independent action based on circumstance and situation?

Invisible_demon interjected: Oldguy, do you think there will ever be a man fast enough to outrun a cheetah?

What do you think about GenPets.com, Geneticaly engineered pets, should they be legal, why/why not. Please justify your answer taking ethics, morals, and religion into consideration.

Hey oldguy…

Where did everybody go? And (breaking a rule) how do we get them back?

adma84 interjected: Since Kate broke the rule again ill ask my question anyway.
I live in a country with corrupt leaders. the good thing is, there’s a presidential election in a couple of days.

the candidates are:

1. a moronic daughter of the first president who has absolutely have no idea how to rule a big nation. she is from a party that symbolized by a red bull head with goons and mobs as the party functioner (we got a lot of them down here.)

2. a big plumpy guy who was formerly fired from his job as a minister from the first candidate cabinet. he is the incumbent at this election and got his presidency cause his sad and (again) plumpy face. after having his son as a part of parliament, and a couple of his brother and uncle to the cabinet, he decided to take this job again for the next 5 years.

3. a short, cute, and cuddly old guy who looks like Hitler. absolutely opposite of Obama. he is the vice president in the second candidates government. knowing that the big incumbent wont take him along for the ride in the next one, he decided to go for the presidency himself. he can make jokes, but sadly dont have a leader capacity. he got this saliva flowing from the sides of his lips when he speaks, and never close his mouth when not speaking. but hes cute, always have fresh political jokes and I work for him xD

Now who should i choose, oh wise old man?

I heard something interesting just now. A guy wrote a ticket for a cop that had parked in a no parking zone while he went to pick up his lunch in a resteraunt. Is this actually legaly binding or did the court look at it like a report of police misconduct.
