The NHS & the United States of America

[flashpipe1]

The problem with this kind of situation in the US is that people tend to forget how to discuss things civilly and take their position is the absolute only available option where there is no room for compromise whatsoever.

You're so right...it's like these people have never been married...or had kids...or parents...

Both people have merits in their conversation; yet there's no middle ground. Just the same way I have no middle ground with the current surge of people taking to YouTube, Twitter, and these so-called Tea Bag Parties because I disagree with people that compare our president to Hitler. I can't even call those people "human" and sadly enough, the conservatives are warming up to those people for one single reason - they're not stopping it.

The people in that video amazed me that they're willing to give up their time to go protest and march with no real understanding of the issues, the facts, and can't even verbalize what they're opposed to.

Nothing comes from the inability to compromise.

Well, at least nothing good...

Obama said some excellent things in his speech that I HOPED would help combat some of the idiotic bi-partisanship that is tearing the country apart and preventing ANY sort of health care change.
