From
this article at honoluluadvertiser.com, Trisha Kehaulani Watson writes a letter with 10 requests for the president. Number 3 caught my eye as well as some of the stupid replys.
Let's see Rush is being treated in the state with the
#1 best health care in the nation and guess what? It's probably the most socialist!
3. Create competition for health insurance companies
I know, you just passed the health care bill. Yet, when Rush Limbaugh got up today in Queen's hospital and said "there's nothing wrong with health care in America," I wanted to scream. First, Queen's hospital was founded by King Kamehameha IV and Queen Emma during the monarchy, so all their people would have health care. Second, he only got treated there, because he has health insurance. For health care reform to work, health insurance companies need to have competition so their rates are kept low and so we develop a health care industry based on keeping people healthy instead of one banking on keeping them sick.
