#94 Free Healthcare
April 4, 2008 by clander
In spite of having access to the best health insurance and fanciest hospitals, white people are passionate about the idea of socialized medicine. So much so that they have memorized statistics and examples of how for-profit medicine has destroyed the United States.
But before you can exploit this information for personal gain, it’s important that you understand why white people are so in love with free health care.
The first and most obvious reason is “they have it Europe.” White people love all things European, this especially true of things that are unavailable in the United States (Rare Beers, Absinthe, legal marijuana, prostitution, soccer). The fact that it’s available in Canada isn’t really that impressive, but it does contribute to their willingness to threaten to move there.
These desires were only heightened in 2007 when Michael Moore released “Sicko,” a documentary that contrasts the health care industry in the United States with that of Canada, France and Cuba. As a general rule of thumb, white people are always extra passionate about issues that have been the subject of a Moore documentary. As a test, ask them about 9/11, Gun Control, or Health Care and then say “where did you get that information?” You will not be surprised at the results.
But the secret reason why all white people love socialized medicine is that they all love the idea of receiving health care without having a full-time job. This would allow them to work as a freelance designer/consultant/copywriter/photographer/blogger, open their own bookstore, stay at home with their kids, or be a part of an Internet start-up without having to worry about a benefits package. Though many of them would never follow this path, they appreciate having the option.
If you need to impress a white person, merely mention how you got hurt on a recent trip Canada/England/Sweden and though you were a foreigner you received excellent and free health care. They will be very impressed and likely tell you about how powerful drug and health care lobbies are destroying everything.
Though their passion for national health care runs deep, it is important to remember that white people are most in favor of it when they are healthy. They love the idea of everyone have equal access to the resources that will keep them alive, that is until they have to wait in line for an MRI.
This is very similar to the way that white people express their support for public schools when they don’t have children.

This is all very funny, I had a few good laughs at this one. How about before we get all this socialized medicine crap, we instead talk about tort reform. A lot of the costs of medicine are due to sue-happy american citizens and the fact that doctors must test for that one in a million case. You will always have a glorious amount of tests done on you so the docs can have their asses saved. I’m all for capping the amount an patient can sue for.
Here here!
I think you overestimate your audience here.
Think of it as food on your kids plates or health care for degenerates and illegal aliens.
…or, food for the mongrels
yea, those poor white trash mongrel types….too many of’em I tells ya!!
yeah, us stoopid negroes deserve it because of slaves and shit
Ask any of the libtards promoting the Idiot Messiah’s plan to provide health care for all how much they’ve donated to charities that do exactly what they pretend to want. Then you’ll realize that they were actually planning to realize their socialist wet dream using other people’s money.
You bet I am banking on using other people’s money. I’m a poor recent college grad with practically not enough money to eat. I have a 40 hr/wk job waiting tables at a restaurant where I am offered no benefits.
I guarantee I work harder for my meager money than some rich prick who just made 2 million dollars during the time that it took me to write this reply. And how do you suppose he made that money? Probably by exploiting someone like me with low wages and no benefits.
So yes, he is going to pay, and so are you, you hater a**hole. I’ll be thinking of you when I go to the doctor for free.
Thanks for providing yet another example of publicly educated losers who think others should pay for the poor results of their self-centered, libtarded decisions.
Most of the money you are going to be spending will be comming off my legitimate kids plates. I certainly can’t think of a better use for it.
…but, still mongrels.
and don’t forget those poor white trash mongrel types….too many of’em I tells ya!!
Yeah, the people who run this website are entirely right wing guys mocking left wingers.
If health care turns into anything like the DMV or the post office, I’m just going to off myself now and get it over with.
You shoud come to Minnesota. Going to the DMV is a rather pleasant experience (seriously). But I try to have a smile on my face and show my appreciation for the person behind the counter. I think a positive attitude can sometimes make a difference. A sincere compliment never hurts either.
It can’t turn into anything else.
…one down
