hey everyone, been a long while..

[Kotin]

hey everyone.. its been quite a while since I have been around here.. I am entering my 3rd year of medical school and man its been a whirlwind.. I have to say that I have missed all of you and being around people who understand individual liberty and property rights.. the medical field is very much full of socialists and people who just are so far from my own line of thinking..

and no, I have not deviated from where I started all those years ago in 2007.. if anything it has been reinforced and I do see the necessity of a true free market in medicine..

but aside from all that I wanted to touch base here and see how everyones doing, what has changed, what has stayed the same.. this is a place that I still hold very dear and have some very fond memories of.

the medical field is very much full of socialists and people who just are so far from my own line of thinking..

which is rather amazing; I know the thing that turns my wife off from socialized medicine is seeing all the people that abuse the system and her thinking about the fact that she is paying for their stay with her hard earned dollars.

Strikes and gutters, gutters and strikes...

Nice to see you around.

Greetings . I was wondering when you would come back and class the place up a little . A true free market in medicine would make it cheaper and more affordable . You could even return to just carrying a catastrophic policy and even buy one in whatever state you wish .

Hey, stranger! Congratulations on surviving another year!

This is for you. It's to help with those all-nighters, not a comment on the current condition of this place...

 

[Kotin]

so glad to see a lot of you are still around.. think ill be sticking around as I need a good dose of common sense after being around all these people who seem to think if you dont believe in the almighty centralized government to save everyone, you are a monster hahaha

I'll bet they all really hate Trump too

WELCOME BACK!!

Greeting brother! The libertarian philosophy is the truth. Unfortunately the reality is that the mob doesn't want liberty. Holding back the Marxist mob is now my goal. Luckily the Democrats have gone full retard and are acting as a horrible warning for those that can still think and learn. Thanks to the left, the Republican party is more willing to listen to free market principles than they were in the neo-con days. I don't think we will ever have the fun of the old days again but watching Democrats be exposed as the fake party of hoaxes is fun!

WELCOME BACK!!

LOl oh he is the butt of about every snide comment and joke that I hear.. and for myself of course I have mixed feelings about him and I go a little back and forth but I will say that I think he has many more positives than any president in recent memory, its unfortunate that he is such a polarizing figure which gives his enemies so much ammo against him.. I think if you took that away and solely looked at policy it would be a different picture..

I see him as a quintessential populist which has both positives and negatives but I still am not convinced that he is someone else's puppet or at least not fully, obviously anyone in high office has people he favors etc.. but Rand's working with him has given me some hope or sure

and so glad to see you still kicking around here, danno..

very true, I think many of us have come to see the reality of this world and the political landscape.. we started out as many do, idealists.. but I dont think thats bad and holding onto some of that idealism is a beautiful thing at the end of the day.

it sure has hahaha.. no hitches yet and everything going smoothly prepping for my first board exam and my psychiatry unit but I feel good about life and have not been destroyed by this process just yet lolol

its like they have stockholm syndrome lol.. they cant see that these policies they defend have stripped doctors of all their autonomy and they fundamentally confuse this managed crony capitalist market for a true free market. awesome to see you again
