Maddow: Take 2 Chickens and.....

[Mari333]

the end of the video is PRICELESS when Mike Bell of TN attempts to explain why you can use vegetables to pay for health care:

'Bell: They're some of the healthiest people you have ever seen. They pay cash when they go to the doctor. They work out arrangements with the hospitals if their children have to be hospitalized. This is an individual choice that we're talking about.

Towns: You're saying they pay cash? For organ transplants and cancer and heart cases, they pay cash?

Bell: I said they pay cash or work out other arrangements. I know for a fact. I know someone in the medical field who has been paid with vegetables from the Mennonite community.

Towns: That's an anomaly. That's not how the system works. I can't take a sack of vegetables down to the utility company and pay my utility bill on my house. Nobody's going to take vegetables for payment. We can't run the country on vegetables and horse trading.'

1. Maddow's comment is priceless...

On a side note, I see the unrec trolls are out today. We must really be getting to them.

[redwitch]

2. I loathe the unrec.

Really, really loathe it.

[malaise]

4. The unrec posse should know

that for every one of their unrecs, we can deliver 10 recs.

3. laughter and satire are always what gets to them..and they have no defense

hahahahaha

5. You could get premium medical care if you paid w/ chicken stew then, I guess

[hatrack]

6. And just imagine how cushy the clinics would be if paying via coq au vin!

:toast:

[Solly Mack]

7. Woohoo....now you're talking! Might even get a specialist!

[ejpoeta]

8. maybe tenessee could save some money then and pay their bell in vegetables,

what do you think. would he be willing to accept 'other arrangements'? bartering is great. and i support it. but to try to tout it as the way to fix the healthcare system..... are you kidding me!

10. when I see politicians accept bags of TURNIPS from lobbyists as payoffs

then I will believe the politicians

9. I'm going to the doctor on Monday

and I have a stuffed chicken. I leave the rest to your imagination.

[Mari333]

11. I want video

[rocktivity]

12. I'd have enough self-respect to trade off something of REAL value

like jewelery.

16. Take it from me. I know from experience. Make sure you spruce your chickens up,

You'll get more cluck for the buck. I suggest using this tip if you feel you will need any blood work or further testing. Here is how I presented my chickens when I knew I was going to need a breast, er chest x-ray. The doctor wasn't at all concerned because, I brought the bucks, buck, buck, buck bucks.
