Yesterday, I heard your idiotic Health Care “Reform” Bill passed. Then I ran into the bathroom and puked. It’s the sickest I’ve been in decades. How ironic that health care legislation can make someone ill.
Why is that? Because I don’t get sick (knock on wood!) and I refuse to support the GDBs (Greedy Demonic Bastards) that run the health care insurance industry—and who with their subhuman policies and fine print have caused so much grief to average Americans all in the name of profit.
I do NOT do business with Major League Assholes, the above-mentioned GDBs. I don’t need their “services” and I don’t want them.
In addition, there are Americans who will live their whole lives and never end up with a catastrophic illness. Never end up in the hospital. Never suffer a horrible accident. My Dad is one of those people. I’m banking on it that I’m one of those people, too.
Why do I think I’m one of the “lucky” ones? It has little to do with luck (OK maybe good DNA to begin with). It also takes hard work (like exercising—gee, what a concept!) and discipline—no, I don’t get to eat donuts or drink soda or smoke or guzzle booze. And neither should anyone else—if they value their health.
Which I do. I take FULL RESPONSIBILITY for my own health. From the results I’ve achieved so far, I’m doing a great job at it. I will NOT be punished financially for being healthy.
Consequently, I won’t be buying into your draconian MANDATORY health care coverage requirement. It is patently un-American to try to MAKE ME buy a product I do not want. Broccoli is good for your health. Are you going to mandate and/or fine me if I don’t buy it? Oh wait, I already do buy it. Maybe VEGETABLES should be MANDATORY? That would improve the health of Americans MUCH MORE than your lousy bill.
I WILL NOT subsidize those Americans who choose not to take care of their own health. I will not give you my money because some Americans make bad choices—like smoking and over-eating. Again, rather ironic that a SMOKER SUCH AS YOURSELF is trying to TELL ME (the non-smoking non-obese healthy person) how to care for my health.
Why don’t you quit smoking? I’m NOT paying for your chemo treatments and lung machine.
Speaking of obesity (a BIG FAT problem in this country), Type II diabetes is a TOTALLY PREVENTABLE disease. But it is causing our health care system to crumble. I am NOT PAYING because someone else can’t stop eating cheeseburgers and fries. Not my problem. You don’t get my money.
Currently there are about 45,000,000 Americans without health insurance. Some of these people want it but can’t afford it. There are also plenty like me who just plain ol’ DON’T WANT IT! According to NPR radio—a far more credible source of information than what comes out of the White House, Congress, Supreme Court, government agencies, or MSM—twenty percent of the people without insurance DO NOT plan to “obey” the mandatory law.
That makes about 9 million people, plenty of whom can’t afford THE FINE—levied by everyone’s favorite institution, the IRS. What are you going to do about us? I guess you better get busy building more prisons.
But here’s the rub: if the non-insured don’t buy into the system or can’t afford the premiums (you are REALLY stupid if you think the Health Insurance Industry is not jacking up the rates as I type!), then the new system fails.
Gloat all you want today. Because your Health Care “Reform” Bill is as flimsy as the paper it’s written on. It WILL be a failure to implement.
That brings up a tricky question about your legacy as POTUS: Do you think you will be remembered as the guy that at least tried to fix the health care system?
Or that you were that self-serving moron (no, not W, the other guy) who sicked the IRS and jail time on average hardworking Americans [because they didn’t want what he was selling or couldn’t afford it] and it was more important for him to show Washington who was BOSS?
You reap what you sow. From where I’m sittin’, you can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear. OR it does no good to throw pearls at swine. OR you’re slinging pig doo-doo on the American public and IT STINKS!
P.S. My co-worker Janet said to tell you that her father is 93, still works five days a week as an attorney, and has never had a health issue. BTW, he also never smoked!
