''As America grew, this system was expanded to the inland ports along the Ohio and Mississippi rivers and others. It eventually became our Public Health Service, led by the Surgeon General. ''
Think about that. John Adams liked the idea. History will simply repeat itself and this 'soshalizm' coming to America will go down as a VERY good thing. |
History does repeat itself, mistakes and advances alike. The best we can do is learn from our mistakes. There is a reason that the PHS did not expand and turn into universal health care for the whole country.
And remember, Adams was known for doing things that were borderline unconstitutional, and stifling to the country. Almost all the other founders disagreed with things he did. He was ousted from office by Jefferson and didn't do much after that.
