I believe them. I also believe that we really can't afford good
quality universal healthcare. People live long enough now that
they usually go through $500,000 worth of healthcare or so in their
lives and we don't pay enough in taxes to cover that. They have to
rely on a constantly increasing population to pay the bills and that
is neither healthy for the country nor sustainable..
