Ah, Irony

So get this. One guy wants health reform. One guy doesn't want all Americans to have health insurance. They get in a fight. The pro-health reform guy bites off the pinky finger of the guy who doesn't want health reform. The irony? The guy whose finger bitten off is covered by Medicare.

I'm sorry about the guy's finger, but what an asshole. He's got socialized medicine himself (Medicare) and yet he doesn't want the rest of us to get health care. Jerk. We need Medicare for All. Now.

Also important to note that (0.00 / 0)
his finger was bitten off AFTER his second punch landed his finger in the other guy's mouth.  

Selfishness (4.00 / 1)
I feel that people are really encouraged to be selfish by their televisions. "It's all about YOU!"

I find this to be really creepy, but to me, it explains the pervasive fear that many people have that somewhere tax money that came out of their salary goes to help someone else. Oh, the horrors.

I'd think it should be an honor to help a fellow American (or even a fellow human). :)
