    ”If unregulated private companies were in charge of everything else”

    what’s yer problem? You don’t have authorization for beef chuck, so there’s yer beef tongue. We’re out of onion, oregano, cilantro and paprika, so here’s your cornstarch imported from China. Don’t spill anything on the cornstarch before you eat it, bud, because the filler they use in China turns to concrete when wet. That’ll be $1,375 plus $300 for delivery. You have exactly 30 minutes before we add an additional $250 per each additional half-hour. Get busy, what’re waiting for?

    oldlego, no, haven’t fallen off the ledge; I thought it was funny but that’s me … I’m easily amused :-D

    actually, I was imitating a health insurance executive

    OLDLEGO: Don’t be silly… If he had been talking about the government, he would have needed to add 2 or 3 lines devoted to fees and taxes.

    The Righties will be quick to tell you that no government regulation is ever necessary. The corporations always do what’s best for us.

    BCS: Pardon me, Ma’am. I’ll try to remember. (But you’ve still have to agree, right?)

    churchill, OK. agree with what ? If it really was a health insurance executive talking in the toon above, he would probably add “we’ve now changed our mind, you are not covered for chewing, please throw it all up over in the corner. that will be an additional $25 for use of the corner and our time to look at your claim.”
