    The Republican Party is a cancerous sore on the face of America and the great tragedy is that the citizens of the Bible belt states are too ignorant and uneducated to ever figure it out.

    Note that in Ireland healthcare is mainly tax-financed, where as in the USA it is mainly insurance-based.

    So although a family pays more insurance over there, of course they don't have to pay much tax towards h/c.
