Bill Maher Puts Health Care Opposition In Perspective

Friday night's top new rule, Not Everything In America Has To Make A Profit, was yet another example of why we should be thankful we have comedians like Maher, Jon Steward and Stephen Colbert to fill the gap left by the so called mainstream media. As Maher pointed out

If conservatives get to call universal health care "socialized medicine," I get to call private health care "soulless vampires making money off human pain." The problem with President Obama's health care plan isn't socialism, it's capitalism.

Combined with David Sirota's brief op-ed in Salon, The Rich Never Had It So Good, and with Robert Reich's Tax The Wealthy To Keep Everyone Healthy, you should be armed with enough ammunition to shoot down the rhetoric of the fat cats who are opposing health care reform and of their willing and shameful accomplices in the Congress, the media, and the blogosphere.

Happy rebutting to all!
