I want to scream....

I received this email:

"Ordering a Pizza in 2012

This is absolutely hilarious, but the scary part about it is that it's probably not too far away from being reality, providing Obama has his way with socialized medicine, and digitizing medical records.

Want to know how to order a pizza in 2012? Click the link and see.

Turn up the volume, listen closely and watch the pointer!"


I will admit that it is funny...hahaha you call to order a pizza and they have all your information- hilarious - sure whatever.

What makes me so angry is the message behind it...Obama and Socialized Medicine...for the love of god people- that is not what he is trying to accomplish. A national health care system would benefit this country- there are so many people who file for bankruptcy because they can't pay medical bills. The United States is the only industrialized nation that does not guarantee access to health care as a right of citizenship. If we had a national health care system, the country would be saving money (taking out administrative costs) and all citizens would be covered. To me, that is not socialism, that is making sure you take care of your citizens...

Also, with a national health system, There would be no management of care, unlike the current managed care system which mandates insurer preapproval for services thus undercutting patient confidentiality and taking health care decisions away from the health care provider and consumer...so no worries, when you go to order a pizza, they will not have all your information readily available. SUCH BULLSHIT...grrr makes me angry. I hate hate hate when people use humor to try to coerce people into believing what they want them to.

It pisses me off the some crazy right wing republic is sending out this email as a scare tactic; and what pisses me off even more is all the ignorant people who will see this and believe it will happen. GRRRRRR Angry Fists...

Wow, that video is just taking it to the extreme. I'm all for a nationalized healthcare system.

We've got a nationalised health care system here in Australia. It's not great, but at least it's something. I have no idea how Americans cope with the ridiculous out-of-pocket expenses they're expected to cover just for basic health services - I really hope Obama can improve things here!

Awesome post, Dani.
