1. Yup. And thankfully our top tier has put 3 good ones out. Not optimal, perhaps...
... but very good. (Yes, there IS space between "optimal" and "worst piece of crap ever".)

5. You know, that is exactly what I said upon leaving the theatre
after watching "Sicko".
I am do damn tired of "we don't have the money" when we have all kinds of money for wars and all kinds of money for corporate welfare.

And the sad part is, countries that are far smaller and less economically advantaged are already providing for the health needs of their people. Don't tell me we can't do it.

7. We have the money; we just don't have the morality
This country cannot be considered moral or civilized until it gets single payer.
