What do you think of our new name? The USSA.

@Burnley123 You are right. Our healthcare system needs a major overhaul. I think socialized medicine run by the state will become prey to all the ills we see now in the V.A. healthcare, and ALL socialized medicine is plagued with long waiting lists to get in to see a doctor, including the (as you state) so popular NHS.

@4meAndyou All I can say is mother referred to GP on Tuesday by her Carers.Hospital at Home in on Wednesday.Diagnosed by Wednesday evening.Treatment started immediately.Blood tests show improvement on Friday.All Free.Wonderful NHS

@TheSirfurryanimalWales She was lucky to get right in.

@4meAndyou I see the left as more totalitarian than fascist because they want the government to control every aspect of your life. However, they do display characteristics of fascism as well. Whatever they are, I totally reject it. I like my liberties.

@katielass Still wuv u!!! LOL!!!

@redredred There you go...and stock pile food as well. Did you see on television the giant stack of cash you would have to pay for one chicken in Venezuela?

I only saw it recently...but now it is too clear. And the result is they are creating a world of mental and emotional children the better to sell their useless consumer garbage and garbage ideas to. For example...in 1939 how many major box office-successful movies were made from comic books? In 2017 how many were NOT?

A dumbed Down Society is easy to manipulate and control. Same reason they have broken up communities and families. The media are a great example, sideline Hollywood for a second. How many times are you told breaking news, and given a 30 second segment? Its to condition people to focus less on the details and more on Breaking news headlines. Its all part of the dumbing down process and the same goes for comic book movies instead of thought provoking stories. Most kids these days look up to a baseball player or a footballer, with lower IQ then themselves lol our parents generation grew up listening to philosophes or poets.

Ummm....I wonder if making people live life so vicariously also is part of it. We have so many people who live through others, a footballer or Kim Kardashian, or by loving or hating whom the Orwellian media tells them to hate (Pres. Trump) or love whom they tell you to love (Oprah Winfrey before she tries to get another Swiss handbag salesgirl fired)

@CopperCicada Interesting how your mind works.

@4meAndyou please don't tell me i'm a communist or a socialist or a hillary supporter.

@CopperCicada Um...why would I do that?

@TheSirfurryanimalWales It's all right....you may return now if you wish....LOLOL!! Thank you for the good wishes. I will spend the 4th like so many other pet owners, trying to reassure my cat that the loud noises will not hurt him. 🙀

@4meAndyou You will have to put with King Charles 3rd soon though!

@TheSirfurryanimalWales Well, he is not too bad. He seems like a good sort, allowing his son to marry Meghan as he did. He was quite kind.

@Flenflyys Well, it does point out where we are heading. Our similarity to the USSR will become evident in about 20 years if the socialist trend continues.

But for a country that already struggles with literacy, maybe only be socialist in reality but not in name.

@JennyGa what is right!

@4meAndyou oh now it makes sense! I just need to own a lot of houses!

@Mistakesmakeus I think that's a great idea.

@4meAndyou .... Ok I just got lost after "I"
