Second, while I usually support letting capitalism take care of things, in the case of health care I think there absilutely needs to be a socialistic system in place. Letting the free market take care of healthcare has sucked for anyone too poor to pay for quality care. There has to at least be a part of the system NOT out to make money that will provide care to those who can't afford it.

Who paid for your supposed boost? Clue, it isn't China, ultimately.
How many miles does one need to drive a 30 mpg vehicle rather than a 21 mpg vehicle to make up for the "carbon footprint" of producing the 30 mpg vehicle?
Wildbeast has it right. We just bought, you and I, a shit load of serviceable vehicles, at way over blue book value, and funded the destruction of said vehicles.
