The Solution To America's Health Insurance Crisis

If I were Sherrod Brown, I would jump up on a desk and bang on a metal trash can during the next Senate Democratic Caucus meeting. "Who's with me on Single-Payer?" When no one replies, or they all look at Harry Reid, Sherrod jumps down, runs over to Reid, and puts the trash can on his head and pushes him over. "Who's with me on Single-Payer?" "Ow," says Senator Reid.

Sherrod turns to face the Caucus and sneers. "You gutless motherfuckers. Sanders! Get up on that desk and explain to the Caucus why Single-Payer is a good idea and why we are going to pass it this afternoon." "Ummmm..." says Senator Bernie Sanders. Sherrod stares at him in disbelief. "JESUS FUCKING CHRIST will you sack up, people? I'll give you five god-damn minutes to vote unanimously that we're going to pass Single-Payer with 59 votes. Fuck the filibuster: this affects the budget in a gigantic way. Now go and do the American electorate's bidding. Four minutes and fifty seconds!"
