I was engaged in a conversation regarding the future of health care in America when a third person (W) gave her opinion that she was happy with ObamaCare since her son could now get insurance. In New York State the cooperatives will not begin until Oct 1, 2013 for those without any other options. However, her son does not live in New York, where the state has provided Healthy New York insurance to those who qualify. We then had a conversation which I will relate. It demonstrates the severe problem facing our country resulting from the poor educational system we have underwritten for generations:
I: Why do you like the federal system Obama helped create?
W: My brother could not believe that I voted for Obama. He is a conservative Republican living in California. I am a registered Republican but we needed to do something for those without insurance. After all, Obama cares. What do you expect, I am a social worker and I care and must be liberal.
I: Do you mean that the Republicans don't care?
W: Well I don't know. They supported those greedy people in the health industry.
I: do you think it is greedy to ask for a raise?
W: What?
I: Did you ever get a raise at work?
W: I am not working anymore, since the summer.
I: Do you think it is fair to get a raise?
W: Yes, I deserved a raise when I worked. I was not greedy.
I: Do you think that the hospitals, doctors, nurses and other personnel working in health care are greedy if they get a raise? Do I deserve a raise?
W: Yes, I would say so. But the insurance companies are greedy.

Apparently, wanting to profit from a business ( big or small ), implies GREED to the liberal voter.
Continuing the above Q&A (a portion):
I: Do you think that your insurance is good?
W: I have private insurance and Medicare. I like it but it cost too much and keeps going up.
I: Why do you think that is?
W: Greed on the part of the insurance industry.
I: I know that some people are greedy and make too much, but do you think you should use your insurance when you need it?
W: Yes, that is why I pay for it.
I: Do you think you should be limited from using it too much?
W: No, because it is for those who need it.

This is a TRUE story!!
Representative Republics don’t work when any idiot is granted the franchise.
Must have been picking up her Birth Control and Herpes medication....
I: I know that some people are greedy and make too much, but do you think you should use your insurance when you need it?
What does he/she mean by "too much"?
RE: What does he/she mean by “too much”?
What about the CEO’s of companies that took government (AKA taxpayer) money and still got paid outrageous bonuses? Don’t such people exist?
The prescription program started under Bush.
None of this is a surprise. Half of the American public has its head up its a$$, and that explains why 0 got reelected.
>>>The prescription program started under Bush.>>>
Could you verify that? I’ve had prescription insurance for at least 35 to 40 years long before any Bush became president.
Medicare Part D (in 2003), under Bush, took effect in 2006...

I couldn’t read through the whole thing. Why not just have a debate with a gnat? It’d be about as interesting.
What the inquiring minds here would really like to know, is which one uses "White-Out" on their computer screen.
That would be much more educational. end of rant / sarcasm.
