Cars are more important than people

I decided to pay some attention to the debate in America on health care reform and I just don't get how Americans think. I really don't. Those who oppose the reform worry that private health insurance companies won't be able to compete with a public option which will be a basic health insurance plan offered by the government mainly to the 46 million or so uninsured who can't afford private insurance anyway and who the private companies don't want to insure either. That doesn't make any sense. Is Harvard out of business because Berkeley is a public school?

Shouldn't the focus on health care be that everyone is covered? Why is it mandatory to have your car insured but not your health? Why should each and every car in America be required to have insurance under the law but not each and every citizen? Shouldn't the debate on whether insurance be optional or mandatory be about cars and not about health? What kind of freaking luxury is it to debate how to deny more health insurance or less health insurance to 46 million uninsured people while having figured out already and without any ado how to have each and every freaking car insured!!

I guess it must be true that in America people seriously believe that cars are more important than...people!!!

So sad America lets its own people down first and then preaches about values to everyone else. Fortunately for everyone else, no one buys American bullshit about values any more. If everyone else in the world has been smart enough to figure that one out, that leaves Americans next!
