[dry land fish]

3.75 GPA is almost an A average and I'm assuming she's talking about her college GPA. That is very good, but it also depends on the courses she took and the type of college she went to, 2 year, 4 year and so on. I went to a community college briefly, one year, I ran out of money and had to work full time. My GPA in that short time was 3.5 or something like that, but my classes were PE, art, photography, English comp 101, some basic math, easy stuff. I'm not saying she had basic easy classes, just that a high GPA may be misleading in some cases. Me especially because I'm kinda a dummy. If it weren't for spell check on my computer you guys would have a clue what I'm talking about. Maybe you don't anyway

I don't think you are stupid. You seem intelligent. Even though you don't agree with me and I don't agree with you on this healthcare issue doesn't mean that either of us are stupid. That's what is great about living in a free country. People can express their thoughts about social and political issues. I'm not boasting about my average trying to make myself look good but at my school the average student is a C student. A moron isn't going to have a good GPA. I'm a science major and my classes are hard. Most of my basics I haven't even done! I'm putting them off for summer and winter terms. I'm not going to spend a whole semester on public speaking or some BS class like that. My math classes are hard because my major requires physics and lots of chemistry. I go to a 4 year college and my major is Geology. No minor because I'm on an extended track and it covers all aspects of Geology. Basically it prepares me for the ASBOG. I'm working on a Bachelors. I just visited South West Florida and looking to do my masters there. After this fall I will be a junior status.

I can't support free healthcare. I can support an effort to control how much people can charge for procedures and I will support an effort to help people get affordable health insurance. Free...is not an option. It can not become a strain on the taxpayers as a whole. We can't just give people money and free things. I understand that free is the word of this administration but what is free for one person costs money for another one.

Dry land fish, I have a feeling thay maybe you aren't what you say you are. I mean, You pour out such poison that makes me wonder whether you are merely playing " devil's advocate " to wind us all up or maybe you represent some ultra right-wing grouping?
Or is all of the stuff really your opinions?

I am not right wing. I support abortion all the way up to partial birth. I support gambling, legalized prostitution, totally nude strip joints, legalization of marijuana, public breast feeding, nude sunbathing, etc. I'm socially very liberal but fiscally I'm a conservative as it comes. My husband says that I'm one of the stingiest people with money he's ever seen. I come from a place that had NO money and almost everyone was on welfare. When you see people on welfare and the majority have nothing wrong with them but laziness it really makes you not want to support the government forcefully taking your money to give to others. Maybe if you had spent 22 years in an area like that you would see where I'm coming from. Most of my high school graduates have kids and no more than a high school education. They get food stamps and sit around on their fat butts and don't contribute to society any. They live in trailers, don't mow their yards, have ten dogs that aren't ever taken to the vet, and just screw and have more kids. It gets old to see working people work to pay for their own families and then see free loaders being supported by the working poor and middle class. People wanting stuff for free where I'm from was so bad that I remember a high school biology teacher saying "there's no free cheese in my class" because saying "I don't give out grades" just didn't register. Those same students were the ones in trouble all the time, fighting all the time, were racist, bigots, and generally disruptive. As I've noticed when I check around my hometown they still are disruptive but instead of detention they are in and out of jail. Do you want to provide healthcare for people like that? Oh and I'm not under 25 but just barely...I'm 26. Oh and some of you live in better countries than the USA. The USA isn't the best country in the world. I don't trust the US government with anything. Our government is dirty and they only care about themselves and the politcians. Some of you that live in Europe and Canada have a better government. I don't want the state of Kentucky controlling my health choices!!! Our last Govenor employed his family members to the point they had to do an investigation and make him fire them because it was illegal. He used government money to pay for his personal expenses! Our government is ran by bone heads!! Look at President Bush!!! He was an idiot. I do not want people like that controlling my care. It's scary!!!
