Romney Adviser: Latinos 'Were Scared' To Vote For Romney

[Stranger in a strange land]

LOL, no one chooses not to have health insurance. That's like saying people choose to be poor or homeless. Normal people want to have health insurance.

And red states get a lot more money from the federal government than they give back. So the better question is, who would fund the sh[inks]hole banana republic that a seceded Republican United States would become?

Yes, people do choose not to have health insurance, whether it is rational to you or not is none of your or the government's business. 

We are almost in a banana republic now (not that you'd agree, but see Libya).  I also struggle to see how more freedom from the state leads to such a banana republic.  I'd like to see where you are getting this "red states" get more money stuff from Lief.

So Lief, this is from 2004 and there is no breakdown as to whether this spending is military or non-military spending.  I'd like to see something updated for 2010/12 and without military spending included.

Much military spending is corporate welfare which contributes little to national security. If you want to know who the real welfare queens are, you might want to start looking at some of the defense industrial companies.
