Health Care Solution:

[NickyK]

While discussing the upcoming Universal Health Care Program with my
sister-in-law the other day, I think we have found the solution. I am
sure you have heard the ideas that if you're a senior you need to suck
it up and give up the idea that you need any health care. A new hip?
Unheard of. We simply can't afford to take care of you anymore. You
don't need any medications for your high blood pressure, diabetes,
heart problems, etc… Let's take care of the young people. After all,
they will be ruling the world very soon.

So here is the solution. When you turn 70, you get a gun and 3
bullets. You are allowed to shoot one senator and 2 representatives.
Of course, you will be sent to prison where you will get 3 meals a
day, a roof over your head and all the health care you need! New
teeth, great! Need glasses, no problem! New hip, knee, kidney, lung,
heart? Well bring it on. And who will be paying for all of this?
The same government that just told you that you are too old for health
care. And, since you are a prisoner, you don't have to pay any income
tax.

which bill are you talking about, currently there are 5 floating around
or are you making like Glenn Beck and running around with your head up
your ass

There were five but I think the multiple house bills have been
reconciled. Can you be specific on which bills are 'floating around'?
