There has been much talk for years to get rid of the current tax system in the United States and go to a fairer or flat tax.

Because of the all powerful IRS (Internal Revenue Service) this will probably not happen. It would eliminate the IRS.

Most unemployment is growing in the private sector and Government employees are growing in USA. We need to do the opposite. Eliminate Government and add jobs to the private sector. If there should be unemployed, let it be the very high pay of Government workers. Many of these workers make approximately $100,000 a year while the people on the streets suffer.

Ladies and Gentlemen; now you see the rise of Socialism in the United States by the Obama Administration.

Greed! That's the problem. Doctors want more, every one want's more. 30 years ago when you asked a child want he/she wanted to become when he/she grew up they choosed a proffession, now when you ask the majority say they ant to be rich and have a lot of things.
The consumer sociaty where you are bombarded with commercials constanly has made people crave for more. Especially completly unecessary stuff.
It used to be a medicine man in every tribe. Caring for a handful of people to his best nolage.
Today a doctor is caring for thousands of people.
No matter type of political system the cost or the lack of educating enough doctors makes doctors scarce.
This enables doctors to have high salaries.
Doctors have no interest in rapidly increasing the numbers of doctors since it would affect their paycheck.
High salaries to doctors give automaticly high insurance rates.
Do you think a medicinman would have said to tribesman "I'm not going to treat your severe lion bites because you are not going to be able to bring me meat anymore in the future, since you're most likely will be limp"
Now doctors are hiding behind insurancecompanies and reception desks. Failing to provide the right document they will turn you away and you might just need to head for the nearest bush to die.

Previous posts has stated that there's a difference depending how many inhabitants a country or region has in how each country can deal with it's share of problems.
It makes absolutly no difference if the number of people is 1 million or 1 billion in a country. What matters is density of population. There is not going to be a heartsurgeon in every other Igloo in artic but in a major city you will find one within a couple of miles.
If you have homeless uninsured people in a big city it's a politial choice made by a sucsession of leaders.
And you get/elect the leaders after your abilty to understand matters of hand.
With less education the voters are prone to chose the most charismatic person not the actual politics.
Wich makes greedy two faced people the wast majority of politicians today, it's the only way, kiss buts on the way up to the top so you can reek the benfits of office.
I don't know Obama so I can't judge him, history will.
As for the Bush family they should stand trial for their crimes.
