So, after dancing around this issue, doctors should not profit, because the ones in the UK and Canada are 'doing fine". And there should be someone, a group of citizens good and true, who decide what "doing fine" will look like? and this will improve the quality of health care, like in the UK and Canada? Or does quality not matter as long as the profit motive is removed?

I'm all for taking care of the disabled. Do we take care of the "unemployed" forever? No cut off length of benefits? What's "etc"? I'm pinning you down because I really want to know what's in your head. I've already gotten that docs in the UK and Canada are "doing fine", but don't know the "details". I'm curious what other details you're ignorant of, yet can somehow be an expert.

What does regulated food and water look like, being that they're not BESs like health care? Should there be profit taking in food? I mean, no food or water, that equals illness...and control, yes? But no corporations should be built around preventing illness?

Higher taxes to pay for art? There's pretty much the bottom line, no? No extravagance is too much because the government can just take more money from the average citizen at the point of a gun. That's a great world you envision, chuck.

In your utopia, what do we do with the already existing corporations involved with your BESs? Government takeover ala WWII? Or just shut them down, no matter the human cost?

What's the difference between government and corporations?
