   shuuu1968 replied to CRNA2007's topic in Activism, Healthcare

   Good points UKRN...and I do believe you agree that the government cannot be trusted, as implied by your word "corpocracy." Therein lies the problem. Do I care that some people are influenced by Fox...

   As I stated before I am neither a republican or a democrat, so I am not here to get into any "political warfare." I was simply stating that you can look at both sides of the argument and find ugliness...
