60 Minutes Interview

Great video besides the fact that it really turns out to be a Ron Paul ad.

Here is a 60 minutes interview I have seen a few times and finally found a youtube version to show you'all.
One question I have is simple, In the 1950's our country had enough money to house, clothe, feed and give medical care to all the baby boomers as they were growing up. Now our country is much more wealthy, a bunch of the boomers were slaughtered in 'Nam and yet we don't have the same amount of money as we did in the 1950's? Really, our country is poorer then it was in the '50's? How can that be? From every indicator I have seen our country is far richer then it was is the fifties yet we can't take care of these same people for another 18 years? Something just doesn't add up.
Also how is it that the rest of the Western world is able to give healthcare to its citizens without going broke? I highly doubt a conservative like Walker would advocate a single payer healthcare system like they have up in Canada.
Maybe what promises need to be rescinded are the ones to the corporations that say you don't need to pay taxes. I love how the first group to be denied help are actual human beings, and then later they think about going after corporations.
Maybe we need to go bankrupt (some of my friends would argue it isn't a question of "if") in order for us to see what really matters, humans not corporate profits.
