There aren't any jokes on this thread. Here's a health care joke:
The CEO of a large HMO dies and goes to heaven. St. Peter shows him to a lovely villa, wonderful music, great views, full staff of servants, gourmet meals, etc.
The CEO says, "This is terrific!"
"Don't get too comfortable," says St. Peter. "You're only approved for a three-day stay."
Government: I want to give you more accessible health care which will be independent of your job.
Americans: No, I don't want it..I like private health insurance companies so that I may have more choice.
Government: But private insurance is for profit and they will deny coverage to people with pre-existing conditions or those who cannot afford high premiums.
Americans: I don't care about others as long as I have the health insurance.
Government: Some day when you are lonely and poor you may need an affordable universally accessible health insurance.
Americans: As long as it is proposed by a liberal like Obama I don't like universal health care.
