[Rhodes22-list] picture e-mailing continued - followed by political commentary...

[Tootle]

Everybody, especially John Belanger, needs to read John Locks explaination of
email and attaching pictures thereon until they understand it.

John B.  there are two different ways to send and receive emails.  You need
to spend the time studying the two and understand the differences.

After seeing John B.'s reply about insurance, I believe that he expects the
Federal Government to solve his problem.  He is a true Socialist, or fellow
traveler.  

John B., insurance is still controlled by the states.  Rules to sell
insurance are different in each state.  Many life insurance companies cannot
do business in all 50 states.  Many property and casuality companies do not
do business in all states.  But you are going to compell them to do so.  

Insurance rates are figured out by Actuaries, which is a special statistical
science.  Insurance rates are controlled by states for each state.  Uh, you
mean that states really control the rates?  Yes, states control the rates. 
And if company cannot set rates to stay in business in a state, then John is
going to compel them to stay in business.  What would you call this way of
doing things?  Does it sound like dictatorship?  

Now be it understood, that those who advocate the government provide heath
insurance coverage, think the same way.  Compel others to pay for someone
else's health insurance.  Could someone give me the definition of Communism?
