Hey Rush! Think About If You Were One of 46 MILLION With No Healthcare Insurance...
As soon as he is up and ranting again, someone needs to ask Rush how he would have felt going to the Hospital Emergency Room to get checked out for those chest pains?

And what if he had lost his job and his house was under water or in foreclosure when he got the sky-high medical bills?

Just a fantasy that Rush could imagine such, since he believes all those he are not wealthy like him deserve their lot in life --no job, no home, no health insurance, etc.

1. I honestly don't think he could comprehend what it would feel like. Hell,
even my niece who has great coverage wouldn't be able to really 'get' it.

Like most scenarios, until one "walks a mile in my shoes", it doesn't really sink in.

I'm sure he's getting excellent care and if he recovers, will be singing the praises of the current health care system.

2. He'd need a heart in order to feel those emotions

3. His mind doesn't work like that.



He will expect the finest medical care there is because he is rich and privileged. Period.
