Just like human life has no respect today, much less a K-car. And nobody cares about the effort put out by a few to preserve human life, much less a K-car. The whole article!

Obama: Mandate Health Coverage Just Like Car Insurance
by Scott Ott for ScrappleFace · Comments (65) · ShareThis· Print This Story
(2009-07-22) — The federal government should require everyone to purchase health insurance, President Barack Obama said today, just as car insurance is mandated.

Like auto collision plans, the president said his health plan would allow reductions in coverage amounts with age as “the condition of the body just doesn’t matter as much anymore.”

“If you’re driving an ‘82 Plymouth Reliant K, you’re not going to carry as much collision coverage on that clunker as you would on a 2009 Lexus GS,” the president said. “Likewise, my own health insurance should be the top of the line GS plan because I’m in the prime of life, but my mother-in-law, who has already lived her best years, could get the K-plan…you know, less coverage on body work.”

Mr. Obama said a mandated universal medical coverage plan could reap huge cost savings “if only Americans would cast away the antiquated notion that all human life is equally valuable.”

“Most health care expenses come during the final years of life, when it’s too late anyway,” he said. “If we looked at people as we look at cars, we’d all understand that you just don’t care as much about dings and dents and leaky oil pans on the older models.”

Actually, he drove a Ford Granada, and badmouthed it at a talk. He also condemns SUVs as gas guzzlers.

I Think I heard that he had a new Chrysler 300 Hemi before getting whatever hybrid POS he has now.
