Now y'see it, now y'don't......

Another ‘Big Lie’ that we’ve all heard too many times.... that our health care system is ‘broken’ and needs t’be replaced immediately if not sooner at an untold cost....
multi-trillions of dollars (c’n anyone actually imagine a trillion dollars, let alone multi-trillions).....It’s a lie! Our health care system ain’t broke....maybe a little bent...
well, in some cases really, really bent....but that ain’t no reason to scrap a working operation....AND the Obama administration knows this....they know that the system ain’t broke and that it’s impossible to scrap it and begin anew.....so it’s a lie......The question is.....why the Big Lie.....
well, a cursory look at the short history of the Obama Miracle will show that the Big Lie has been a favorite tactic since the very beginning......make a lot of noise, scare a lot of people ‘n they won’t notice what trick you’re actually performing......c’mon, it’s called ‘sleight of hand’ and it’s a staple in every magic act that has ever been......draw the audience attention to the right hand ‘n they’ll never notice that you’re picking their pockets with your left hand...... (the pea is never under any of the cups, but you knew that, right?).....
On that proverbial other side, health care does need a serious reformation and government could do it....it’s that could’a, should’a, would’a thing.....They could have done it long ago, they should have done it long ago, and they would have done it long ago.....except government lacked the proper incentive...we the people vote ‘em in and the special interests make sure they stay in long enough to get their bellies full gorging at the public trough.....or as George Orwell phrased it in 1984, “some animals are more equal than others.”
