I'm briefly coming out of retirement to comment on the healthcare debacle we've just witnessed.
I thought of a few ways to go about writing this post. For example, I'd like to point out that the Democrats, in being more concerned with attaching their names to something called "healthcare reform" than with making sure that thing will actually reform healthcare, have revealed themselves to be a bunch of sociopaths who don't give a flying fuck about the people they supposedly represent. They just want some sort of legacy, even if it comes at the expense of liberty.
I also thought about saying something like "for the first time in my adult lifetime, I'm really ashamed of my country." However, as noted above, my country technically didn't do this, since Teleprompter Jesus and his buddies chose to ignore a wave of opposition so strong that it led to the election of a Republican senator from Massachusetts.
In any case, I'm too pissed off to be much more rational than that, so I just have one question:
Does anyone know where Karl Marx is buried so I can dig up his remains and take a massive shit on them? I think it would be cathartic.
On a final note, I'm still unemployed, and I find it rather hard to be motivated to look for work if a large chunk of any future income is going to end up paying for this disaster.
UPDATE
Anyone want to help me pay for a quick trip to London?
I kinda figured if anything would bring you back to blogginess, this would be it.
I don't even know what to say about this insanity. Break out the muskets, I guess.

What, I just like the term Ponzi scheme.
:-D
