"Obamacare" January 27, 2012 3:46 am bowser

Historians looking back on this period will see that the term “Obamacare” is a perjorative term used to describe an American President’s attempt to provide preventative health care to the poorer and needier of the citizens of his country.

“Obamacare” was a way the wealthier tried to ridicule such a plan.  Rather than forgo their 4th of 5th car, there 4th or 5th house, they would rather see a homeless person die because he or she didn’t have the funds to get preventative care.  Yep, that’s true.

When it looked as if it might cost a wealthy person a house, or a medium wealthy person a day of their vacation, or a middle class schmuck one beer out of his second 6 pack, it became too costly, and that American child should learn to live without medical care.  And the attempt to provide it with health insurance is called “Obamacare”.

Now these folks are against abortion.  After all, the next Mozart, or Einstein, might be among those fetuses.  Ask them to provide lifetime medical insurance for all fetuses who were not aborted, ask them to provide a guaranteed job to all of those, and maybe a minimum housing allowance.  Then stand back.  They’ll laugh your ass off.  That fetus is on it’s own.  Once it’s born, the hell with it.

I’m sitting in the middle of the richest country ever known, who mocks for former USSR who at least tried it’s best to provide that which wealthy Americans regard as options for poor Americans.

This is too long for anyone to read, too unpleasant for anyone to read, too accurate for anyone to read.  After all, we all want to be comfortable.
