How government works

[ColoEnthusiast]

Let me get this straight.

We’re going to pass a health care plan written by a committee whose head says he doesn’t understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn’t read it but exempts themselves from it, signed by a president that also hasn’t read it, and who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn’t pay his taxes, overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that’s broke.

What possibly could go wrong?

Exactly! And those are probably the good points of the bill.

If you want to see how government currently works - go watch these videos...
yeah - all of them... if you can stomach it.

I once read: If you enjoy sausage or the law, its best if you don't see how either is made..

I'm pissed as hell over this. It will do exactly the opposite of what it is intended to do. It will make healthcare MORE expensive for everyone except for those who already qualify for the government freebies anyway.

As I stated on a similar thread the other day, the way I see it, this bill will only benefit the insurance companies... It will bankrupt the rest of us either directly or indirectly.

It is a profoundly sad thing to to not recognize one's own country. This is not my country anymore....

Good ol' America... land of dreams... lol.

Unfortunately, the mass of sheeple's voted (or didn't vote at all) for this. What does that say about our education system and values?

Sidenote: It's been anaylzed that all major societies/empires (Babylonian, Roman, Greecian, Indian, et al) crashed after the thousand year mark and the changing decisions could be traced to around the 400 year mark... America is only about 250 or so? We might set a record! lol.

Well justwho do you think Barry is helping out here?/

I mean the insurance companies are just 1 of the corp's that put his ass in there.. so he is still on the payback train.
