We Had The News, Ohboy

the president was heckled by the southern jeckleman. Not news. What struck me was that the Prez failed to mention my suggestion.

Replace the Post Office with public health.

What I mean isn’t a slam against the PO nor a possible healthcare improvement. Nope, I meant it seriously. The GOPs want to privatize everything. We know that produces soviet style democracy — guns and dozers for the bodies. Billionaires overnight, bodies every night. Healthcare is not an economic good, so remove it from the market and replace it with postal services.

Let the insurance carriers become letter carriers. Fire the current post office employees. Use the great Thatcher’s rhetorical flourish “redundant” and get on with it. With the funds freed up from those salaries you will have plenty for health admins etc. Without a need for sales and marketing you save more than 25% a year.

Eazy Pleasy, Nice-n-sleasy.

The market fights over delivery schedules. Healthcare returns to a muzak moment.

Doctors wouldn’t notice a change in schedule. Nurses would have more coffee breaks. Admitting would be self serve. Like a said: Nice And Easy. Wonder why he ignored me, again.
