Too Much To Ask

THE FIRST DAY of the "Obamacare Era" has come and gone, and the world hasn't ended, at least not yet. Neither did the first day of registration for socialized health insurance produce any discernaible disasters of any sort, no rioting mobs, no huge internet computer crashes, no bureaucratic incompetence, other than the usual, or any that left obvious smoldering ruins. The conservative republicans of America must be sorely disappointed, yet intrepid; there is still plenty of time for Obamacare to fail. And, like the president said, if it doesn't fail, it won't continue to be called "Obamacare". If it happens to succeed brilliantly, it might even end up being called "tea party care". You never know; stranger things have happened. Halfway through the first day of Obamacare, Rush Limbaugh, famous American conservative radio talker, proclaimed it to be a complete disaster, and claimed that every reporter reporting in on the matter was describing complete chaos. He must've made this up; how else could he have come up with it? Who, among the Limbaugh followers, is going to do any fact checking on el rushbo? The conservative republicans would like nothing better than for Obamacare to fail, and, for that matter, for America to fail under Obama's leadership. Anything to discredit and get rid of Obama; no price is too high to pay. Are the liberals guilty of this tactic? Surely they are. Its reprehensible no matter who does it. What should we all do as patriotic American citizens? Why, we should all sign up for Obamacare, drop whatever converage we currently have, and sign up for Obamacare immediately, simply in order to make it work! (everything man made must be made to work, nothing man made works by itself, automatically, like some independent force of nature). If we all had Obamacare, every last one of of us, then we the people could be and would be in control of it, rather than the super rich corporations, the few super rich corporations, which control the health insurance industry and care not about the needs of the people, but profit, only profit, and the needs of the people are taken into consideration only in the form of a factor influencing profit. Why shouldn't we the people be in control, democratically, of health insurance? If everyone in the United States chose Obamacre over their private coverage, their current corporate capitalistic coverage, the sort we who are lucky enough to have health insurance at all now have, if all three hundred million of us would sign up for Obamacare, rather than just a few million of the highest risks in the country - then Obamacare would work, beyond the shadow of a doubt. Because we all, cooperatively, would MAKE it work. but that would be to much to ask, wouldn't it...
