Rage Against Suburban Zombie-ism Wednesday, March 24, 2010 Somehow I don't think people want it. The post-American health care debate sorta reminds me of that line from A Few Good Men where Tom Cruise demands the truth and Jack Nicholson vehemently responds, "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!" Swap the word "truth" with "change" and I believe this is the mindset of some Americans who are anti-health care reform. As a Canadian who doesn't worry about incurring debt because of medical bills, I'm not even gonna pretend that I know anything about the American health care system - or this new bill that just (barely) passed. Allz I know is that I am extra cautious whenever south of the border. And I'm not talking about Taco Bell! I don't get the Anti - or I guess they're called Republicans' (*shivers*) standpoint. Are they just opposed because they felt strong armed? Or are they actually concerned about the American people eventually paying for this through increased taxes? <-- Highly doubt that, I think it's the former. As for the Pro-Dems, since everyone is qualified for health insurance, does that essentially mean that everyone hasta *pay* for it? If so, how much will it cost the poorest of the poor? I can spend some time online, but I have a feeling that my findings would make me mad. This is already giving me a headache.
