Subject: BS: Enron to run Medicare?..........
Well folks, judging by what little is known about the Repub. Medicare Plan that was written, as per usual, behind cloesed doors and without any Dem. input, it looks like a lot of privatization. Normal...

Problem is:.... If ya ' got, say, a $1.00 fir health care and you drag in middle men (insurance companies) to pay for the care then now you end up with 70 cents worth of health care and 30 cents for the middle man...

Hmmmmmm? Why does this make mean that ordinary working folks are gonna get more rather than less? Well, they won't... But don't worry about the Ken Lay's of the world going hungry... Now our tax dollars are going to be darned sure that Ken will have a turkey fir his table on Thanksgiving... That's what great about America. We're always ready to help when a man's down in the mouth... Hear, hear, I say...

As fir Baby Boomers gettin' what their parents have now.... Forget it, won't happen...

But, hey, Ken's gotta a turkey for Thanksgiving...

Awww, nevermind....

Beam me up...
