Perfect example of why we can not let the government get involved with or
take over private business. Otherwise we will all be standing in line like cattle
waiting for our rations.

Yup. Government can't do anything right. I mean except build the first atomic bomb. That's it. Nothing else. Well, unless you count sending man to the moon. But that's all. I mean except for the interstate highway system. But those are the sum achievements of the... well, Medicare works pretty well.
