Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Politics - Not List Material

[Ken Rentiers (rentiers]

Re health care. Insurance costs are jacked up because we are not  
writing catastrophic insurance - we are writing prepaid all- inclusive  
health care

Add oil changes, fuel and a weekly visit to Sudsy- Wudsy to your auto  
policy. How much will that cost?

Now have FedGovCo set the coverage and rates for all cars with a new  
massive buresucrazy: Medicar. Let's cover any stolen foreign cars  
while we're at it.

Oops. Too expensive. Cut mechanics pay and give Congress a separate  
plan.
