Bonuses

Here is a cheerful note, from Think Progress:

"Analysts estimate that Wall Street’s 2009 bonus pool could total $200 billion "

Two hundred billion in bonuses for the criminals who robbed the rest of us of half of everything we own.

Now, I am not here to scream about the grotesque injustice of this, but to simply point out one thing: As far as the Republican party is concerned, ninety billion a year to give tens of millions of people health care is an absolutely inexcusable waste of money, but twice as much to enrich a few thousand evil, greed maddened, self serving people who should be in prison, is just fine. That's patriotism for you, that's family values.

To give them insurance, they already have healthcare.

Ok, you go into an public ER with no insurance and tell me if you get treatment.

Go away. Derek. We have been down this path before and you know damned well that you are lying.

I am not. You will receive care if you need it whether you can pay for it or not. Uncle Sam picks up the tab if you cannot.

Everyone seems to know this but you.
