A cartoon explanation of why we need a public health insurance option.Now that the health care bill has passed, my friend Andy Lubershane (the animator) has made another video about a topic near and dear to my heart: Climate and Energy. Please check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... by Andy Lubershane. More comics at http://www.earthlycomics.blogs... The data in this cartoon is supported by this report: http://www.ourfuture.org/healt... which includes a lot more detail on current proposals for a public option.

@TigerghostPictures I agree, and I'm glad to see someone else calling him out haha.

@Sta Haha. Im not here to debate him.I know Im not going to change his mind. I just get pissed off when people contradict themselves. Hes all anti-socialist & thinks Obama is a secret Nazi Muslim ninja and doesnt realize that even Israel has a universal, socialist healthcare system. Israel even recognizes gay marriage 2. I like roads, you like roads, I assure you that HE likes roads, and who pays for roads? The socialist government. He lives in a bubble that is dragging us back to the dark ages.

@TigerghostPictures You're talking to the dumbest kid on YouTube. Good luck replying to all the BS he posts back.

@Osambasucks2 Um I'm sorry I guess I should have said "facts" since the BS you posted has 0 foundation in reality.
TigerghostPictures (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
@Osambasucks2 ...and Israel has a universal healthcare system too. Go figure. Nazi is so 1940, pal. And, uh if you recall anything from the Jeremiah Wright controversy during the campaign in 2008, Obama was a member of the "United Church of Christ" denomination of CHRISTIANITY. You people who think that Obama is a Muslim are about as dumb as those people who thought that 9/11 was an inside job. Obama did represent Illinois from 2004-2008, you'd think something would have come up then. dumbf**k.

@DavidJamesZimmerman full employment returned only with start of wwii, proving that when jobs are there most people take them. Unfortunately given the vagaries of life it is not always possible to provide for yourself or family therefore you pay taxes to ensure when the bad times come you and your family can survive without having to be supported by "charity". The Government already ensures cheap food by subsidising farmers. Clothing can be very cheap or 2nd hand the government is not your enemy

@DavidJamesZimmerman You are correct "It is up to us to provide for ourselves and our family." The problems start when circumstances beyond the control or desire of the individual or family conspire to destroy that ability. Overwhelmingly most people given the choice would choose to be in employment. Overwhelmingly most people given the choice would prefer not to get sick.During the 30's millions were made homeless and destitute having to rely for existence such as it was on "charity".
