Post Office-Fail
Public Schools-Fail
Social Security-Fail
Medicare-Fail
Stimulous-Fail
Bailouts-Fail
GM takeover-Fail
Chrysler takeover-Fail
Fannie Mae-Fail
Freddie Mac-Fail

What made dealerships think that Cash for Clunkers wouldn’t fail

This is what makes the American people not interested in seeing the next one put on the list

Just last week, Obama's eunuchs in the state run media were telling us that "Cash for Clunkers" was the greatest thing since sliced bread. A stroke of brilliance. It sure sounds like that was just another load from the piggies in the media.

ObamaCare sure is going to be fun.

You missed a few...

When the house and senate “dining rooms” (restaurants for the house and senate staffers and guests, as well as the congress-critters) were run by the house and senate, they constantly had to be “bailed out” by congress, just to meet payroll and pay their bills. Once they were contracted out, they became self supporting.

But the BEST was when the Mustang Ranch, at the time, the best known, most famous legal brothel in NV, was taken over by the feds, because the owner, Joe Conforte was charged with tax evasion and fled the country. It was a business that was generating millions in profits, but after the feds took over, it began losing money, and eventually the government closed it down, unable to make money selling sex. This is probably the first time that’s happened in all of the history of mankind.

This is the same government that wants to take over your health care. Many auto dealers are getting upset that the government is being very slow paying them back the money they laid out for the Cash for Clunkers program.

Welcome to the world of pharmacy reimbursement, hospital reimbursement and doctor reimbursement. The government NEVER PAYS ON TIME! Hello! What do you expect they can't run a post office either.

Sometimes they are EIGHT - TEN MONTHS BEHIND (you try that when paying your bills) on Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement. And there is NOTHING you can do about it. They will stall payment by making you submit MORE FORMS claiming you didn't file them properly. LIARS!

When you think of having govenment run health care just remember what it's like to deal with the IRS (x 100)!

YOU DO NOT WANT THEM RUNNING YOUR HEALTH CARE!!!
