Members Lucky Posted November 11, 2010 Members Share Posted November 11, 2010 Got the message! Okay, it was a sweeping mandate for change. And so shall it be. Health-care reform shall be repealed, and the number of Americans who have no insurance shall rise in the face of ever-increasing health-care costs. They will not receive regular care but will be able to visit over-crowded emergency rooms when their untreated chronic condition becomes critical and it is too late to help. The rich shall continue to collect and own a higher and higher percentage of the economy, and the legislature, and the courts. Product and food safety rules will continue to be weakened, but there will always be the overcrowded emergency rooms to deal with that. Minimum wage laws shall be repealed, and you will have the freedom to work three jobs for the rest of your life without the ability to retire ever because Social Security shall be privatized and your three jobs don't pay enough for you to save anything. The climate shall deteriorate, and a freak tornado where, hey, we didn't USED TO get tornadoes here at this time of year, will blow your house down. There will be no FEMA and not even a Brownie to help you out. When your equally devastated neighbors come prowling around looking for food, you will have plenty of guns to shoo them away. Although they will have their guns too. Because of police department cuts, you can work that out for yourselves. The loser can go to the overcrowded emergency room. Oh, wait, that just got closed for budget reasons. --Tom Toles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, but he is a guy with a huge platform as the editorial cartoonist for the Washington Post. And, if I may ask, is it ever okay to be sore about losing?

And, if I may ask, is it ever okay to be sore about losing? You bet it is! And his predictions may well come to pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
