Do you have something against chipping in to pay for my father's medication? You must be cruel and heartless to deny medicine to an 80 year old man*.

Mama Bear,

No one should mind chipping in for an old man's medicine. However, if i chip in for your father, and you chip in for mine, but the government wastes 25% overseeing the transfer, who wins?

Socialism has not worked in other parts of the world; Do you think we have such a caliber of politicians and bureaucrats that it will work here?
