Just because something is funded by public money doesn't mean it's socialist.


You are correct Aunty! The "state" would have to own the means of production from which the money is collected. I just don't know why folks freak out because someone wants to allocate tax dollars for health care. Politicians piss away more of our money on haircuts and hackysacks everyday than I can count or am even aware of

The big "if" is it would be okay IF our government practiced fiscal responsibility, which they do not, Dem Or Rep.
