| How to pay for UHC?
According to Garrison Keillor... Quote: |
Thirty-two percent of the population identifies with the GOP, and if we cut off health care to them, we could probably pay off the deficit in short order.

| Keillor is a funny version of Michael Moore. Someone ashamed to admit that it's capitalism that has provided them with a very comfortable life for themselves and their family.
