And Perry just turned down free Medicaid

Not free. The state would pay at least 10%, and in the long run probably much more. Also Texans are also federal tax payers, and when the feds pay, Texans also pay.

I know of no better system than a democracy for governance.

You keep saying that, when its entirely irrelevant to the conversation. I would agree democracy works better than authoritarian systems. I also agree that the sun puts out more light than the moon. That 2nd point is true, but like the 1st it doesn't mean much in the context of our conversations.

You chant "democracy" over and over again, when democracy isn't the issue, it isn't being questioned here.
