Health Care Reform Will Allow Artists to Quit Their Day Jobs.....YIPPEE!!

I am SO excited...Thursday night on the Rachel Maddow Show, Nancy Pelosi said  because I have always wanted to paint and write, (you know, be an artist) that when the new health care bill was in place I could quit my job, not to worry, she and everybody else would pay my health care insuramce premium.  FINALLY all my artistic juices can be utilized!

 
I never DREAMED that I would have this opportunity to spend my days in the park painting and gazing at the clouds....waiting for some prose to overtake me.....sigh.....I've got to check and see if she'll also take care of my mortgage payment and food, etc.

Do you think she will buy the gas for my car so I can get to the park? I mean,  I'll need gas to transport all my stuff to the park in my car so I can be truly artistic..... I can't REALLY just live on the fact that she'll pay my health care costs..... How's that gonna work?......OH, NO, I can feel my artistic juices drying up already with all this worry....wonder where my pizza money will come from?...oh, yea, and the beer?  Wait, I've gotta think this through..... It's just not making any sense....is it? (guess I'll go back to work in the morning...'cept I'm retired)

Read Freedom Edens Blog .  I love her last paragraph, "So the economy would come to a screeching halt, but there would be a lot of crappy art to see and bad poetry to read."

The Weekly Standard has an interesting article entitled  "Pelosi's Republic The House Speaker says health care reform will finally allow artists to focus on being unemployed, comfortably."
