[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 2981942, member: 18914"] Ace, how do you feel about a UN official trying to tell a US administration that how we organize our own health care laws may be considered a violation of international law unless it is adequately socialist (because that is what the complaints boil down to)? Whatever you think of the ACA versus any replacement doesn't that, at least, get under your skin a bit? BTW the official who wrote the letter is: Dainius Puras, a Lithuanian doctor who serves the United Nations under the absurdly long title “Special Rapporteur on the right of everyone to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health.” (taken from the WaPo article I link to below) For those who don't trust FoxNews (ahem, ahem, Ace) here is a link to the Washington Post article, same subject: [URL]https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/apparently-repealing-obamacare-could-violate-international-law/2017/04/25/2794a77c-29f4-11e7-b605-33413c691853_story.html?utm_term=.a27c2d760896[/URL] [/QUOTE]
