You are a liar. From [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=300404&page=4) For the umpteenth time, I’m for single-payer insurance that would cover all workers and the indigent and the disabled. Can’t you read? [/quote] I can only conclude that you are posting while drunk. If the universe is smiling, you’ll have a final meltdown and get banned. ---

Again, as I have said, hospitalization, checkups, dental treatment, prenatal care, you know basic care. Hippie loser. ---

Y’know, **Reeder** , quite a good conversation is going on over there, with some people expressing the very same view as you have here. Why couldn’t you just have joined in? ---

In at least one instance, I’m fully in favor of the indigent receiving medical care. Can you give me an address to send the Thorazine to, **Reeder**? ---

**Reeder** , you’re frothing at the mouth again and it’s gotten beyond stale. There’s absolutely no reason to start yet another thread, hammering at the exact same issues already under discussion in active threads. Make your point there already. This isn’t a spin-off; it’s just an incoherent, unfocused flame of anybody and everybody who may not agree with your beliefs and outlook. Enough already. Stop glutting the board with your rantings. Quantity doesn’t substitute for quality. Either cultivate some control or we will dispense with your presence. TVeblen for the SDMB
