Silliness US Hearth Care Plan

Donnageddon · 03-25-2010, 04:31 AM

As many of you know, the US is facing a dire dilemma concerning it's Hearth Care.

This is a matter of extreme importance to ebook readers, and I feel it is essential that we very seriously, and very maturely, debate the issue here in this ebook forum. I know that you are all intelligent and seriously thoughtful ebook readers, who look for this forum to discuss the often contentious debate regarding hearth care in the US, from an ebook reader perspective.

Lately the Republicrats have denied there is any need to reform our nations hearth care. They claim that the old system of hearth care works just fine, and despite the fact that the US ranks amongst the lowest in hearth care outcomes amongst industrialized nations, we still, somehow, are #1 in hearth care.

Here is just one such an outlandish claim.

But the Democans seem to feel that hearth care is a constitutional right, not a privilege. The Democans claim that with Universal Hearth Care, and regular hearth care visits, we can eliminate the costly chimney fires, that in the end we all end up paying for with unplanned visits by the "socialized" Fire Department. The CBO (Congressional Budget Office) agrees that over 10 years, Universal Hearth Care can save 120 billion dollars in US debt, and over 1 trillion over the next decade.

But the Republicrats, claim that Universal Hearth Care will end freedom in America, and bring about "Death Panels" that will "pull the plug on old smokey". Republicrats feel that Universal Hearth Care is only for the elderly.

What do you, the ebook reader ,think about it?

Seriously Thoughtful in ebooks,

P.S. Moderators, I am EXTREMELY seriously thoughtful about this, and request that the topic prefix not be changed.

How can the US possibly afford Hearth Care for the Universe??

I don't believe that hearths should be provided to anyone with an able body free of charge. I also believe that anyone receiving free hearth care should have to pass a drug test.

In the end it doesn't really matter though. Our government will give a hearth to whoever the hell they want to with or without the will of the people behind him.

Actually, the most recent polls show that not only do Americans approve of the recent Hearth Care Reform, their only complaint is that it doesn't go far enough!

I think it's a good initiative.

Do you know how many people die due to inproper care of hearths?

EowynCarter · 03-25-2010, 05:43 AM

As one of these people spending a lots of time in hospital, I'm glad that at least money is not an issue. It's causing enough mess as it is.
You shouldn't need to indebt yourself to get health care.

And remember, you are also paying for yourself. Because you're not sick right now don't mean that will always be the case.
You will pay for other's health care, but these other will pay for your health care when needed.

This is surely something that the populace will get all fired up about, so it is right of you to get to the hearth of the matter, and I have no fear that netizens will treat this respectfully and not get into some sort of flame war about it.

100 homeless Americans were recently asked...

lol

I would like to see these supposed recent polls.

I think that having a hearth follows closely to having a home in the hearths and minds of all people.

BTW, I'm changing the tag to silly...

So now it is MobileRead's policy to dictate what is serious debate and what is silly?

I think many threads with the Seriously Thoughtful prefix need an extensive review.

pshrynk · 03-25-2010, 03:27 PM

Yeah. We're getting to them.

Nakor · 03-25-2010, 05:13 PM

Now, this is from a Canadian perspective, where we have had a hearth in every home for decades now, but I think it's absolutely vital. Not only do they help us pull through the freezing cold Canadian summers, but without hearths, how could Santa deliver presents in the winter?

Of course, things may be very different from an American perspective. For example, in California, the government would probably be better off supplying air conditioners. In Florida, perhaps umbrellas.

happy_terd · 03-25-2010, 05:39 PM

The government doesn't supply crap. The taxpayer does.

pshrynk · 03-25-2010, 06:30 PM

Well, I do supply crap most mornings, so you're right there. But for shoveling it on higher and higher, you need the expensive equipment available only to governmental bodies.

Nakor · 03-25-2010, 07:36 PM

The government (anywhere) is the world's most efficient provider of crap. Glenn Beck is trying his hardest to steal that top spot for Fox News, though. :P
