America seems to be getting a bit tired of standing for all the bullshit
our politicians feed us.

For the record the groundwork for the Affordable Care Act was done by the
Democratic Senator from Montana, Max Baucus. He removed a single payer
solution from consideration on day one. The miserable son of a bitch was
bought and paid for by the healthcare industry and tailored the plan to
ensure their profits.

One happy outcome was Obama made him ambassador to China and we got rid of
the corrupt bastard.
