[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 1766231, member: 2189"] When so-called HillaryCare became public knowledge back in the early days of the Clinton era, CNBC was discussing the reaction of Wall Street to the idea and most guests were supportive of some kind of public healthcare idea. Jack Smith who had just replaced Robert Stempel as General Motors CEO joined the discussion and stood in support of a public healthcare approach. He argued at the time the costs of healthcare for both current workers and to retirees and how longterm that will negatively effect both GM and business America in general. 22 years later, as to cause he's been proven right. At the time I was surprised to hear the leader of one of American capitalism's biggest icons argue for what I saw as a form of socialized medicine. It wasn't until later that I came to learn that much of what some might call "the march into American socialism" were often not only led by the masters of American Capitalism but these same masters often wrote the very legislation on which said socialism is built. Take FDR's New Deal, specifically the National Industrial Recovery Act (NIRA) and the capitalists behind that. [/QUOTE]
