I'm not sure how much more credible you can get than the department of labor.
Let me know when the DoL issues a report on the $ of income spent on healthcare by the FRENCH!!

You're the one making shit up now. Mr. I'm just going to count the empoyers contribution against a person's income and come up with some imaginary figure of what someone might be paid if employers weren't covering part of the health care cost. You can dislike it all you want. But if we're going to talk about percent of income then the numbers in it actually have to be part of someone's realized income, not whatever you think it might be under different circumstances.
You're making up imaginary #'s and you think I'm the one making shit up now?

And no, I'm not hung up on that stat.
Youre' not? Then why do you keep bringing it up?
If you don't like it, take it up with Greenbeard, or better yet the department of labor. As to who is left out you can't even keep your own bullshit straight. Are we talking about milatary personal AND the institutionalized now? Or just military people who have been institutonalized as you have written above? Either way you really think it's going to add that significantly to the number? OR.......if you just don't like what percent of income represents, which I suspect is the case, pick something else to talk about and we'll move on.
I clearly stated that the study excluded people in the military and the institutionalized. If you can't figure out what that means, I can't help you.
And for the love of God move the the fuck on if you don't care about percent of income spent on health care. You've been so fucking busy trying to show the number isn't accurate even though you have ZERO evidence for that, that we haven't even begun to discuss what it actually means in terms of the benefits of socialized medicine.
Wingnuts like you think criticism is censorship. That's why you really do believe that I have prevented you from discussing "what it actually means"

Your failure to make a point is your failure, not mine.
Do I really want to talk about this? Fuck no. The stat in of itself is meaningless. There can be all kinds of reasons it could be higher in one country than another that has nothing to do with the type of health care system used. I would rather talk about what you keep avoiding; the sustainability of the such a system which explained earlier.
Ah, so you want to go back to the "a program with a one year deficit is unsustainable" argument? Go right ahead
Just explain how the Dept of Defense, which has run a deficit EVERY YEAR since the administration of George Washington, is unsustainable
