I'M A HEALTH CARE OUTLAW
I've been following this health care reform drama that's been going on across the country, and I've kept my mouth shut on it because I didn't see it as important to me. I do not have health insurance, nor do I intend to spend money on it. The last time I to go to a hospital was when I was 10 and got bitten by a dog. I haven't felt any compulsion to go get health insurance because I'm not a bumbling moron, or a crybaby pussy who gets a cough or a sprained ankle and goes running to the Emergency Room. Seriously, I was in the hospital with my girlfriend a month ago, and more than half the people there were limpers. This one lady was on a damn oxygen tank and in a wheelchair, and who do they take first? The fat fucking cunt who is limping with a sprained ankle. The lady in the wheelchair was there before her, as was the woman who had recently had a miscarriage and was being infected by debris still in her uterus. My girlfriend needed stitches because she cut her finger open, and they tried to take her before the lady with the miscarriage. We told the nurse we could wait a bit longer and to take the woman who was clearly in horrific pain. "Sorry sir, we have to take your girlfriend." The woman's boyfriend thanked me for my attempt and was pretty pissed at the bitch.
So anyway, it's obvious that the hospital system is in great need of reform, but Obama's plan is just going to make it worse. I'll get right to the point and explain what angered me the most during his speech last night. This transcript was taken from the New York Times' website, and is exactly what Obama said last night:
Now, even if we provide these affordable options, there may be those – particularly the young and healthy – who still want to take the risk and go without coverage. There may still be companies that refuse to do right by their workers. The problem is, such irresponsible behavior costs all the rest of us money. If there are affordable options and people still don't sign up for health insurance, it means we pay for those people's expensive emergency room visits. If some businesses don't provide workers health care, it forces the rest of us to pick up the tab when their workers get sick, and gives those businesses an unfair advantage over their competitors. And unless everybody does their part, many of the insurance reforms we seek – especially requiring insurance companies to cover pre-existing conditions – just can't be achieved.
That's why under my plan, individuals will be required to carry basic health insurance – just as most states require you to carry auto insurance. Likewise, businesses will be required to either offer their workers health care, or chip in to help cover the cost of their workers. There will be a hardship waiver for those individuals who still cannot afford coverage, and 95% of all small businesses, because of their size and narrow profit margin, would be exempt from these requirements. But we cannot have large businesses and individuals who can afford coverage game the system by avoiding responsibility to themselves or their employees. Improving our health care system only works if everybody does their part.
Put simply, you will be subject to legal repercussions for not buying health care if the government deems you can afford it. Those who are against this policy are "irresponsible" and are "ruining it for the rest of us". In other words, "The guy who disagrees with my health care reform plan is the reason your credit is fucked by hospital bills. Go take your anger out on him."
How are you going to enforce this, you Socialist piece of shit? Are you going to keep a database of people with healthcare coverage, then match it up with the names of everyone who has a driver's license or state ID card to see what names aren't on the healthcare list, and send the sheriff out to their house? Please, please, I am begging you. Send the sheriff out to my house to try to arrest me for not having health insurance! If by some fluke you manage to actually take me into custody (the woods are very huge and I know them better than you do), I'll never be able to take the court proceedings seriously. I can picture the judge holding me in contempt of court for not being able to stop laughing.
Is this even America anymore? I never even considered the prospect that I would eventually become an outlaw over something so mundane as not having health insurance. This is the biggest load of fucking bullshit. In fact, this requires a Photoshop:

I never ever thought I would say this, but I miss Bush. Honest to fucking God, I wish George W. Bush was still president. Hell, I would rather have a bucket of fried chicken as president than Obama.
Fuck anyone who is still dumb enough to support Barack Obama and his bullshit policies. I hope you all get cancer and die like Ted Kennedy did.
