The Rise and Fall of Obamacare

Well he splinted the arm, why even take him to the emergency room after that? Just let it heal at home just like the good old days.

Even going to the hospital to have a baby is silly. Babies in the good old days were birthed at home for centuries.

And that nasty gash, get out the sewing kit and sew it up yourself.

"rationing" health care isn't going to bring down the cost of health care. Mandating insurance isn't going to bring down the cost of health care. Only condemning the greed of the industry and using the power of law to put limits on what can be charged by doctors and pharmaceuticals will bring down the cost of health care.

The only place I have seen people walking around with mangled arms and legs deformed for the rest of their lives is in places like the Philippines and Indonesia. We rebroke an elbow off the coast of Zamboanga City and reset it,but the fracture was only two weeks old. Waiting two or twenty years is a different story altogether.

Doubtless an effective coping mechanism. We should practice this skill-- it may come in handy.

So: 'The secret police developed this trait fully. The Russians are especially known for their fun-loving police.

Therefore we likely have no end of fun to look forward to.'
