I don't disagree. I'm just establishing one note worthy difference between a state in the U.S. and a Scandinavian country. States have to be more strict about financing things as they can only borrow as much as others are willing to lend.

Wow. That is sad and pretty desperate. :[
... I never would have thought jail to be an option. O_o
Nothing, but I'm of the opinion that 50 different healthcare systems is a worse solution then one good one.
I'm absolutely positive the right to establish currency is reserved to congress. Not that printing currency would be a good idea.The key difference here is that a state, unlike a Scandinavian country, can print out currency to sustain such a system.
I've never heard an argument for why that would be the case, just people reading certain articles and interjecting their views in between the lines. But at any rate, it's a moot point because the constitution is a living document.You have to take whiteout and ink to the constitution to establish nationwide subsidized health care.
Ehhh, I dunno if I'll stick around. We'll see.

It allows states who don't want to have public health care not to have it. It allows states that do want it to optimize their system. It allows American citizens to vote with their feet without emigration. I'm not sure how mainstreaming it will help anything.
If only I didn't give so much context to that sentence, maybe the typo would not have been too obvious to notice.I'm absolutely positive the right to establish currency is reserved to congress. Not that printing currency would be a good idea.
The national government only has a few enumerated powers, and every thing else is strictly prohibit and left to the states. Basically if you think something is constitutional, name the power that makes it so, otherwise it's unconstitutional. It's only a moot point because SCOTUS consistently uses their invisible, pink constitution to undermine everything written in the actual one that was endowed to us ignorant hillbillies. I concede that much. Supposing that unconstitutional legislation would require an amendment to be enforced was wishful thinking on my part.I've never heard an argument for why that would be the case, just people reading certain articles and interjecting their views in between the lines.

Leaving it to the states is the same thing as not having it at all because of how states do their budgets. States aren't supposed to go into debt, so in order to make any sort of big new system they have to front the money or convince the US Government to. The first is unlikely because of how short-sighted any elected official is expected by their electorate to be and the latter would go over like a lead balloon. The US government, however, is able to go into debt at will and pay for stuff later, which actually allows officeholders to make big plans that outlast them.
I'm not sure I understand, especially since you verified that you were talking about printing currency when you replied to Eris when she was saying it was a bad idea to.If only I didn't give so much context to that sentence, maybe the typo would not have been too obvious to notice.
There are two ways to read the constitution, either in the way a D&D rule lawyer reads the 3.5 Character Guide or in an intelligent way that takes into account what the founding fathers actually meant. I'd love to hear what evidence anyone has to think that they thought states specifically should pay doctors to do anything for anyone. In context, the Constitution is completely blank on the subject, and it's up for grabs until the Supreme Court or an amendment say otherwise.The national government only has a few enumerated powers, and every thing else is strictly prohibit and left to the states.

Unlikely, men have a marked propensity to ignore the owner of a particular orifice in an all-male environment, it's mostly good 'ole American homophobia that's made it such a meme.
