GeeSussFreeKsays...Those responsible savers are ruining the economy!
acidSpinesays...Fuck capitalism. Why should people's health be a commodity bought and sold for profit?
GeeSussFreeKsays...Or food, or entertainment, or toys, or books...never ending logical condition.
sometimessays...privatize the police and fire system.
who needs socialized police? that's what guns are for, right?
GeeSussFreeKsays...Federal firemen, who knew
dystopianfuturetodaysays...So let me get this straight, a rich elderly politician with a plum government health care plan opposes similar options for his constituents, and he calls it a freedom movement? Freedom for whom? Freedom for corporations to deny care for pre-existing conditions? Freedom for people who can't afford health care to die? Freedom for middle class people to go bankrupt paying inflated medical expenses?
Ron Paul is a fraud, and a willing proxy for the people who profit off the status quo. If your nose wasn't lodged so far up Ron Paul's tender, quivering sphincter, maybe you'd be able to see it too.

Privatize all education for that matter. Also, libraries. Barnes & Noble works just fine!

I've probably read more books at Barnes N. Nobles in the past five years than I've read in a public library my entire life. Also, fire departments used to be privatized, and at the onset of the U.S. there wasn't a such thing as a professional policeman. There were Sheriffs and Constables. None of which were in the business of "crime fighting".
How did humanity ever survive!

Wrong again!!
USFA - United States Fire Administration
or, how about these guys?
The National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) in Boise, Idaho, is the physical facility that is home to the National Interagency Coordination Center (NICC), and the National Multi-Agency Coordination group (NMAC or MAC).
The center works closely with and is an arm of the National Fire and Aviation Executive Board (NFAEB), which provides unified guidance for fire agencies in the United States, and handbooks and guidelines to provide common procedures. It was created to implement the Federal Wildland Fire Management Policy. The NFAEB has created the Federal Fire Policy Directives Task Group, which coordinates with state agencies in order to implement cooperative agreements.
But apparently GeesusFreak would rather have zero national help for wildland firefighting. I guess he'd like a citizen bucket brigade to drive out to devastating forest fires (like the one that's on it's 4th week here in Los Angeles) and douse the flames with bald eagle tears.
*edit: I almost forgot these guys:

GeeSussFreeKsays...I guess all the wild-lands caught fire before the fed, charcoal must of been a lot cheaper back then. Thank goodness we have the fed to manage to keep out of harms way like in Katrina and the Great Depression. Public education is one the best in the entire world, people are always talking about how we are the number 1 in the world for our education system. The problem with government is it is never big enough or in control of enough. We all know political ambitions are never corruptible, so people who make laws are always going to make better decisions than we would ourselves. It is a good thing that the feds finally stopped the smoldering ashes of the national fire that had been raging for 300 years before they existed.
