So…Canada’s looking pretty good.
What’s going on in the world? Health care reform, social security will be bankrupt in a few years, medicare will be too, unemployment above 10%, getting more troops into some other fucked up third world country, right hates left and the president, left thinks the right are a bunch of whiners, people can’t get jobs, people are losing their homes all over the place, bankers are getting richer and richer, so are the insurance companies and their executives. Does any of this matter to me – no not really. This is all about who is getting money from who to make sure their bill gets passed so they can get more money from the taxpayer.
Some private (read profit) insurance company is planning on kicking out 600,000+ customers from their health care because it means them not making as much profit as they would like to make. They make enough to pay their CEO 24,000,000 (twenty-four million) dollars this past year but not enough to keep these people on so they still have health insurance. WTF? If that shit doesn’t scream public option, I don’t now what the fuck does.
I just signed Di and I up for health insurance, we can’t really afford it but, in this fucked up country of ours, you have to have it. I just hope we don’t get sick and need to use it because it will probably be taken away at that point. I’m looking for another job but, the problem is that there are people with degrees who are applying for the same jobs I am. Jobs that don’t require a college education. How the fuck do I compete with that? I’ll tell you how – I can’t!
This country is a joke, hell this whole society we live in is one big fucking joke. People are more worried about some rich ass and what will happen on their television “reality” show this week and could give a big fat fuck all about how screwed up things are now. I honestly love to hear when something horrible, really horrible happens to these people. Take Tiger for example, what an asshole, I hope he loses everything.
Canada is looking really good to me these days. Better brush up on those three years of French I took in high school. The US is neck deep in corruption, bullshit and greed and I am just tired of paying into a system that could give a lesser shit about me and my family.
I didn’t even get into the religious stupidity we have here either… (oops, sorry – religious stupidity is redundant)
