Merry Christmas Eve y'all!
Guess what…? Our lovely Congress has just bestowed upon this nation a most wondrous gift of “universal” health care during this joyous season – a gift that will keep giving and taking.
Giving in the sense that never before have we seen such blatant kickbacks and special-interest deals to put another ol’ legislative “victory” on the mantel. Taking in the sense that it’ll be we taxpayers who will reap the long-term consequences of this “reform” through more taxes, loss of medical innovation, and (most importantly) the failure of enacting true, progressive revisions to a restraining, high-cost health care industry – an industry that’s for sure never been subject to an efficiently competitive market ever sense FDR’s wage ceilings, which first led to employer-dominated insurance packages to entice workers during such times of economic hindrances.
Let’s go with an example of giving – the Honorable Harry Reid on his legislative deal making:

Well, liberal policies have created a dependent permanent underclass so benumbed by government “aid” that they ain’t got sense to get out of the way of a hurricane or move to where the jobs are. I guess the Dems feel they need to take care of them some more.
Merry Christmas!
How about a flaming bag of poo on their respective front porches?
universal” health care = fail but it’s what democrats do best.
