Famine and Nudity

From those 45.7 million uninsured, subtract 17.5 million who earn more than $50,000 annually. Though they can afford coverage, they evidently have other priorities.

Of the remaining 28.2 million uninsured, about 14 million are eligible for, yet have not enrolled in, the Medicaid and State Children's Health Insurance Program. Meanwhile, as many as 10 million uninsured may be illegal immigrants. All told, Ms. Pipes estimates only about 8 million Americans are uninsured because of chronic illness or working-poor status. The latter have incomes too high for assistance and too low for insurance.

Why not help these 8 million rather than overturn medicine for all 300 million of us?

There is no need for a gargantuan health plan that spends $1.5 trillion -- as the Congressional Budget Office estimates House Democrats want -- or for the 29 new federal boards, panels and agencies Senate Democrats envision. As for creating a "government option" for health insurance, why not create a government option for grocery stores and clothing shops, lest famine and nudity erupt across the land?

And this: The computerization of Britain's National Health Service has been an expensive fiasco. Why does Obama want to emulate it? No NHS, Please, We're American

P.S. Don't hold back, Obamanoids, Just tell us now we have to wear the Mao jackets.
