"Health care costs are spiraling out of sight at seven times the rate of inflation. 43 million Americans have no health insurance at all. Both of these trends are accelerating. Before long, most small companies may not be able to provide their employees with any health coverage at all. Bush's solution is to give you a tax credit to pay for your own insurance. Well, yeah ... a check from the government. Actually, that's not really correct. If you have the money to pay for insurance you might get to deduct a part of that payment from your taxes. How does that sound to those of you making $5.15 an hour?
Bush blames frivolous lawsuits for the high cost of health care. This argument deserves to stand up there with that {Iraqi} mushroom cloud bullshit. The real reason is that the American worker is subsidizing the health care of the entire rest of the world because we {currently} have no way of controlling any of those costs.
If you like the way that things are going, vote for Bush. If you believe that HMOs and pharmaceutical companies should make health care policy vote for Bush. If you trust oil companies, power companies and chemical companies to do the right thing on environmental policy vote for Bush. If you think that massive deficits don't make any difference vote for Bush. If you like the fact that companies have no real oversight and can avoid paying taxes with sham offices overseas vote for Bush.
The commander-in-chief will stand in front of snappy banners and five billion flags and offer unrealistic enthusiasm, but if you look over you will notice the ground rushing up to meet us as we plummet over the edge!
If you want a change, vote for Kerry."
