ParticipantSo what kind of healthcare costs do we all “owe” this woman?

I believe it was poorgradstudent who said providing healthcare was the morally correct thing to do.
Morally speaking, what kind of services should we provide this woman? 30 specialists to help her give birth?
Is it moral to take money from other taxpaying families (who probably need it) to pay for this woman’s “dream”?
February 24, 2010 at 6:52 PM in reply to: How close is the San Diego housing market to the historical average? #517479ParticipantI think Mothers became Organ Power Pizza… or the other way around.
I also grew up in Clairemont UCGal. At least for 6 years…
I don’t remember the Spirit but I certainly remember the Baccanal…
I dunno I still say La Jolla seems more cheezy now…
Remember there used to be Saks 5th Ave right as you entered from the East? Now there’s a VONS. Similarly with Pearl St and Bird Rock in general, they seem to have gone downhill.
Am I being too harsh? Certainly, were you to give me a place on Mt. Soledad I’d gladly accept it. 🙂

Participant[quote=Arraya]Nuclear is not long term thinking.[/quote]
Yeah I guess I agree. Anything based on extracting finite material from the planet is not sustainable “long term”. On the other hand, you can do a lot, for a long time, with suboptimal solutions. Look at the internal combustion engine. Or HTTP for that matter. Really kind of a hack, but though it is suboptimal, it is good enough, and pervasive. Nuclear could be that way for what 100 years? 200? Still, I agree not forever.[quote=Arraya]With wind, solar and tidal we could power the world today.

Are you sure about that? I’m not. I support doing as much of all of those things as we can. I’m not sure that it would be enough, but sheesh, even if their sum covered say 40% of our needs… great!Might hundreds of square miles solid of highly efficient solar panels in unrelentingly sunny areas get the job done? Maybe. I’m all for trying.
Where do I vote for that?
I’d rather pay for that than health care for people who don’t take care of themselves.

ParticipantWow that looks like a great speech. I’ll read the rest from hotel room tonight or tomorrow.
Ah the joy of business trips…
