Maxine’s Perfect Solution For Health Care
Here is the solution:
While discussing the upcoming Universal Health Care Program with my
sister-in-law the other day, I think we stumbled on the perfect solution for
health care. I’m sure you’ve heard the idea that if you’re a senior you
need to suck it up and give up the silly notion that you need any health
care. A new hip? Unheard of. We really can’t afford to take care of you
anymore. You don’t need any medications for your high blood pressure,
diabetes, heart problems, etc. Let’s take care of the young people. After
all, they will be ruling the world very soon.
So here is the solution. When you turn 70, you get a gun and 3
bullets. You are allowed to shoot one senator and 2 representatives. In a
relatively short period of time, you will be sent to prison where you will
get 3 meals a day, a roof over your head and all the health care you need!
New teeth, great! Need glasses, no problem! New hip, knee, kidney, lung,
heart? Bring it on. And who will be paying for all of this? The same
government that just told you that you are too old for health care. And,
since you are a prisoner, you won’t be paying any more income tax.
