Stupidity

Today's big news story is the release of a report by PriceWaterhouseCoopers on the impact the Senate Finance Committee's health care "reform" bill will have on health insurance premiums. PWC concluded that the cost of health insurance for the average family will rise by $4,000 by 2019, as compared with doing nothing:

Now, think about it: if you know that you don't have to buy health insurance when you are young and healthy, but if you should get sick, or just get older, you can apply for health insurance at any time and it will be illegal for the insurance company to turn you down, what would you do?

It is as though you could wait until you die, and then your heirs can buy life insurance on you.

This isn't reform, it is stupidity.

Good grief.

Throw all these bums out.

Now.

Into prison.
