That was more of a subtle shot at the need to wean the gov't out of the health care business ... too subtle apparently, probably too abrupt a subject change (but that's where I was heading). Secondarily, it was a also about the need to get insurance back to what it was intended to be in the first place (hint: it shouldn't be for every sniffle)

But is life that much more enjoyable when you cant get off the couch and move around easily?

If I never left this f'n room again - assuming the AC, the 360, and the 'net connection all worked, I could probably deal. I could count the number of places I go that are more enjoyable to me than this bat cave & have plenty of fingers left over. And over 95% of my job is done from the same space to boot.

Hey, feel free to apply that to me just as much. I'm just throwing my own perspective into the pile.
