Knock, Knock

Harry opens the door to see an officious looking middle aged woman in
a nurses uniform standing there with an official looking sort of fake
smile.
Nurse: Mr Krause, I am your Obamacare End of Life Representative here
to counsel you on your end of life options.
Harry: (proudly) I’ve got a living will already.
Nurse: That’s all well and good but this is your required end of life
counseling.
Harry: What?
Nurse: Mr Krause, you’ve had a good ten years of retirement, that’s
enough reward for someone who has entered his “non-productive years”.
As one of Obamacare’s strongest backers surely you are aware of the
provisions for AASMR.
Harry: Huh?
Nurse: Surely you read the Obamacare act, page 723 paragraph 5 section
1.2.1.45.
Harry: Well………
Nurse: As the Active Allocation of Scarce Medical Resources requires,
those who have been in their non-productive years for 10 years or more
and are currently receiving medication must submit to Active
Termination of Health Care Procedures.
Harry: My health insurance is ending?
Nurse: Sort of.
Harry: Who are those two big guys with you?
Nurse: Merely my assistants. Now, you have a choice of Carbon
Monoxide or an overdose of Demoral. You can also choose a little
Demoral with the Carbon Monoxide to relax you through the “procedure”.
Harry: YOU CAN”T BE SERIOUS.
Nurse: Oh, relax. Don’t worry about the cost, it is automatically
deducted from you bank account and the remainder is billed to your
estate………….

It's obvious *you* haven't read the Bills, or even a correct synopsis of
the Bills.

By the way, "death panels" already exist.
Private insurance companies employ thousands of people whose job it is
to turn down claim. Ever seen or read about a patient fighting for his
life because he was turned down for care by an insurance company, or
someone dying while waiting for an insurance company to review its
decision? Or a small business whose insurance rates go up astronomically
because an employee needed a lot of expensive care?

You right-wing dumb****s really are in the pocket of the insurance
companies. Even after you're turned down for coverage, dropped,
whatever, you'll still be sucking down the smoke they blow your way.

When the insurance companies tell you to bend over, not only do you, but
you hand them a jar of vaseline.
