Reformers' Claims Just Don't Add Up

• America has a health care crisis.

America does not have a health care crisis.


America has a welfare crisis.


My wife pays a bit over 25% of her gross salary for our insurance.
Quite a "tax" there, huh?
But we have other income.
Her workmates make less than her, and have more people to insure.
Guess what they pay for insurance?
Nothing.
They go to the emergency room.
For everything.
Can't afford anything else.
I wonder who pays for those e-room services.
Neat system, eh?

Sounds like you need to get a job with some benefits, and rescue your
wife from having to support you and from providing you with your own
health care.


Why would I do that? I like retirement, and I'm doing just fine.
And so is she.
Sounds like you should leave the sermons to Father Ryan.
You're not good at it.
