I hope what you really meant was far, far better than what you made it to sound like.

I don't get it. Can you expand upon what you're worried I might have said, which you think is far, far worse?

It seems like you're saying, it's either Ayn Rand or Stalin, there's no middle ground.

I get ya.

From that perspective it's hard to describe exactly what I'm thinking...

If you lean towards "capitalism and free markets are good," then I really don't think you have a leg to stand on, in criticizing a corporation for offering luxury services.

If you lean towards, "Universal healthcare, and this is health care, so therefore the government should have a monopoly on it, except this should be way down low on the list of priorities," then it's a completely different conversation.
