Healthcare Reform Solution: Split the Union

Conservatives have no principles whatsoever. The bombing of Iraq/killing innocent people; spying on citizens and torturing prisoners rolled off the backs of conservatives without a bit of concern, but a President that tries to come in and help the poor, he is hated by conservatives. It shows a complete lack of a moral compass: “authorities detained a man with a sign reading, ‘Death To Obama, Death To Michelle And Her Two Stupid Kids.’"

“Death to Obama, Death to Michelle and Her Two Stupid Kids,” sign help up by a conservative American. (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090819/ap_on_re_us/us_angry_summer)

People carrying weapons to public protests?! These people have backward priorities and they prove it when they shout, “I want my America back!” This means that they prefer war, spying & torturing to healthcare-for-all. Healthcare-for-all is worth pulling out their guns to stop it, but sacrificing all of America’s principles was not only not worth protesting, but they supported it. Cuckoo! What’s really telling is that GOP supports the crazy conservatives and their call for violence: (http://gawker.com/5336973/gop-pay-no-attention-to-our-crazy-supporters-who-want-to-kill-obama)  


Fortunately, the solution is pretty damn simple; just don’t give the new healthcare system to the people who don’t want it.  


Better yet, let’s split the country in half similar to the way it was in the Civil War. Conservatives can re-occupy the South, rising again as they have always wished, and Liberals will re-occupy the North again. After everyone has moved to their appropriate side of the border, the South can re-establish their Confederate Government, lead by Dictator-for-life Dick Cheney. After the split is complete the North can have their “healthcare-for-all” and the South can have the current private insurance system, death panels and all.  


Because the South deems Medicare and Medicaid to be “socialistic” the North gets these programs and the South will rely on their “survival-of-the-fittest” plan and try to never get sick. The South will have their phones and computers tapped same as they approved under Bush. The North will be disconnected from Bush’s Big Brother program. The North will teach science in their schools since creationism was debunked about 200 years ago by at least Thomas Paine in The Age of Reason. The South will only be taught Creationism as dictated by their Theocracy. Southern children will be taught that tolerance and compromise are “sins of the flesh” and they will be taught to hate Muslims and Yankees; oh and “colored people” and immigrants and Native Americans and Europeans and Asians and Russians and well, you get the idea.After school the Southern children will go off to their sweatshops since corporations will be free of the North’s annoying child labor laws.  


The Southern police will torture prisoners, suspects and innocent bystanders for information regarding anything they feel like because let’s face if you look guilty you probably are guilty and if you have nothing to hide the torturing will reveal your innocence. However, with every Southerner armed to the teeth, police will have to shoot first and ask questions later. The North will reform the prison systems to rehabilitate people back into contributing members of society.The South will have no prisons just holding facilities for people awaiting trial where a few will be released as innocent and the rest will be shot in the head immediately after being found guilty.The North will continue the current welfare system. Unemployed Southerners will wonder the streets until vigilantly groups round them up for a good old fashioned “My America” public lynching and human barbeque.  


The North will continue the melting pot process. The South will return to a segregated society of “whites” and “off-whites” as they work to bring back “My America” to whites. The North will protect its citizens from corporate greed and outsourcing through proper regulations.The South will remove all restraints from corporations and the free market will crush all those weak business people who do not put profits ahead of people. Southern banks will be free from government interference and free to pillage and plunder the people like Mr. Potter did in It’s a Wonderful Life.The people like George Bailey will be living in the North and won’t be around to help, but then, as the Southerners like to say, “A Southern Man don’t need him around anyhow!” Southern jobs will not be outsourced to other countries because with no labor laws in the South, Southern workers will fight each other and their children for jobs that pay 10 cents an hour.


If “Death to Obama, Death to Michelle and Her Two Stupid Kids,” is the depth that conservatives have now stooped-to, that is low enough for me. Let’s split the country and rid the USA of our “peculiar cousins” who believe that death and destruction are reasonable ways to solve problems even as they hold high their Bibles and declare that they are Christian. As Mahatma Gandhi said, “I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians, Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”
