You have GOT to be kidding me

Seriously ... they're kidding right? Well ... I guess they did just say that you could keep your current plan if you liked it ... they never actually said you could get a new one...

Of course who believed in the whole 'leveling the playing field' and 'promoting competition' lines they kept spitting out there anyway? I mean ... come on ... the exchange ... that's the way you want to go ... insure thousands of nameless people in a huge pool (that will eventually include every citizen of the US) ... forget individuals ... individuals are bad ... they think for themselves .... they question ... they might actually have better ideas ... but we're the government and we can't have that. No sir, none of that individual health coverage, just jump in the pool with everyone else so that everyone can have the same crappy health care as everyone else.

Want a Doctor apointment, what's your social security number? Oh, we only see that prefix on the first of the month, and we're already booked up for next month ... we have an opening on the first of november, can you make it at 8am?

A government plan is NOT the way to fix health care in this country ... there are a plethora of ideas out there that would help, but most of them give MORE power and responsibility to the individual and as a result they never get any attention in DC. Hermain Cain had a good article back in April collecting ideas from a couple of different sources as a way to combat the callers to his show claiming that conservitives are nothing more than a party of 'no'.

The cliff is getting closer ... do you have your parachute yet?
