People on the far right can never tell us what they would do to improve health care. I guess for them its just right.
I had a conversation about health care reform with my step dad and his family who are all basically racist. His sister has so much disdain for Obama. She is all "I don't want my country to be all communist like Russia or China" and I said "well what about Canada and France who provide health care for all their citizens." and she looked at me all bewildered like and said "France, pfffft!!!"
So I said "It will help people who earn low wages who cant afford the high cost of insurance" then I said "well let me ask you, who is your provider and is it costly?" she replies with ... are you ready?
"I don't have insurance .. I cant afford it."
I could tell her husband was getting a bit agitated.
She says to me "Obama is the worst thing to happen to this country"
So I say "And you are telling me that George Bush was a good thing?" .. Her husband stood up and they both left the room.
I love talking politics with them- haha... "I don't have insurance .. I cant afford it." Nice.joeth
