"Atheist doctor: I think it is time we ended your life now.
Patient: Doctor, I have no health insurance. If I die now, I will never be able to pay you back.
Atheist doctor: Well, upon further deliberation, I think you should fight this condition with every fibre of your being. And if I were you, I would also call my friends and family and ask if they would loan me some money."

And this, children, is what happens when you allow your mindset to be influenced by only watching Fox News, without seeing the bigger picture provided by other news organisations with different editorial agendas - or lack of such...
Child A: '... Via the BBC and Reuters?'
Correct! A gold star for you on the 'Thinking for Yourself' chart.
Child B: 'Mr. Schaftafly hasn't read books on social history, especially in the 20th Century, because then he'd know about the UK's National Health Service'
That's right. And why is that?
Child B: 'Because Andy Schaftafly thinks the world only consists of the USA.'
Correct! A gold star for you too. And thus is his worldview completely biased towards his own poisonous right-wing agenda - which shall avail him and his kind naught, as the reality of Obama's Health Reform plan sets in: purely to make available healthcare to at least 40 million Americans who previously couldn't afford it.
The concept of 'rationing healthcare' as described by Andy Schaftafly doesn't enter into it.
Child C: 'But if the patient was a Christian like Andy, why would they need healthcare in the first place? Surely he or she could simply 'pray' their affliction away?'
Go to the top of the class! Andy certainly didn't think of that, did he?! Now let's all point and laugh at the silly little fundie, blinded by more than just his 'faith'.
Child D: 'And he dares to call us 'Closed Minded'?! Hee-hee-hee!'
And you've just summed up how stupid Andy Schaftafly and his right-wing way of 'thinking' really is. My word, I'm going to need more stick-on gold stars from the stationery cupboard, the way you all are thinking for yourselves...
Child A: '...Unlike Andy Schaftafly!'
*Everyone laughs*
You don't know how right you are...!
