You and your quadruple bypass! How fortunate for the world that you were saved and just in time too! Listen up: only a fool thinks there is no economic constraint on medicine and health. And there is one right now in the current system: people are constantly denied proper care by their insurance companies, people are dying every day, NAT.

To think that governmental health care doesn’t require some compromises is frankly puerile and naive, stupid even.

As for appealing to the founders… you sound like a right wing nut, and I guess you are. The founders supported slavery as well, designated black people as three fifths a person, denied the right to vote to all except propertied men – are you proposing to bring all that back as per your pedantic reading of the Constitution?

To hell with the founders, Nat! They are not gods.

I’ve read your stupid music articles over many years (I am a jazz musician) and they read like phony, trying-to-be-hip, bullshit – always good for a laugh. (You’d be surprised how many of us think you’re a jackoff.) So I guess I’m not surprised at your idiocy now.

Retire.
