The only question I have is why do you think getting the government
involved will make that any cheaper or better?

These are the same people who bought the $600 toilet seats and the
$300 hammer.
Maybe if you could shoot all the lobbyists and lawyers it might work
but you would still have all those gold bricking congressmen trying to
get more federal bucks into their district.


If you think that $27 Tylenol in the hospitial is expensive just wait
until the government gets a hold of all of the health care.
