Yeah, but why pay for actual health care when we can use taxpayer money to subsidize Re-elect Bush-Cheney '04? http://www.davidsirota.com/blogarchive/2004_04_25_davidsirota_archive.html#1... The White House today announced it will be spending another $18 million of taxpayer money on television ads promoting its new Medicare bill. Not only was the last round of ads criticized by government regulators as misleading, but the White House is on track to spend more Medicare money on television ads ($80 million) than its own FDA commissioner says is necessary to create a safe system to import cheaper, FDA-approved prescription medicines from abroad ($58 million).

Hi Ken

...

As for Elvin, Keiko's rap about working to pay for health insurance is why the rest of the world, including Canada, looks with a jaundiced eye on the U.S.'s richest country in the world claims.

...

If more money was spent on Medicare like it is in most other countries, someone playing until he dies on stage to pay for medical treatment wouldn't be the norm.

Not likely in my lifetime, unfortunately, but I'd like to think we'll be one step closer come election time. One can hope.

Steve
