Best. Anti-Obamacare. Satire. Ever.

[riqster]

This was written and posted elsewhere by friend, fellow bassist, and all-around local legend Ron Jarvis:

"I got a letter about renewing my dog licenses. They said a new option this year was the ability to renew online. I tried that and the website didn’t work.

OMG! THE PORTAGE COUNTY DOG LICENCE SYSTEM IS A WORTHLESS PIECE OF LEGISLATION! THAT MEANS THE ENTIRE PORTAGE COUNTY GOVERNMENT SYSTEM JUST DOESN’T WORK! IT’S TIME FOR REVOLUTION IN PORTAGE COUNTY! ON TO RAVENNA!

Actually, I will probably just mail them a check like always."

Sometimes, somebody says it perfectly. Ron just did.

Pass this around - maybe he'll start blogging himself. He really should.

1. I just upgraded my policy at BCBS...

Processing from start to finish took 17 days.

Close them down. Obviously.

2. Yeah, I just changed jobs. Non-ACA policy.

Six weeks to complete processing.

11. I'm assuming you don't mean to actually walk into a building,

but instead go to a brick and mortar building with an insurance agency office.



Thanks for the links.

13. and use the front door, just don't walk into it.

hopefully there won't be any door opening traumas waiting in ambush!

12. I walked into a building once.

I had a bruise on my face for a week.

14. Which is how it had to be done for all medicare and social security

before the computer revolution. Those programs should have failed entirely. No web site at all!

15. Thank you. I wish this info was being broadcast as alternatives when complaints

are being made in the Corp-Media.

7. this doesn't even qualify as satire- let alone good satire.

it's pathetic. but then again, it's related to that horrible website that I assume is yours and that you can't stop promoting.

so much third rate crap on that site. not even a little clever- ever.

9. I'll have to kick this so I can find it later

10. I did something similar with FB

While I got permission to repost.

Ron is a great guy, and one of those musicians who is so good, it makes you question why you picked up the instrument.
