What do you do when you want to bring health insurance to an entire nation? Call Canada of course. Canada, our friendly neighbor to the north, is the expert in bloated governmental bodies bringing health care to the masses, having had a publicly funded national health insurance system since 1984, coincidentally the same year for which George Orwell predicted a reign of post-apocalyptic social Darwinism. Our government, not wanting us to miss out on the same success the Canadians have had, hired CGI, Canada’s largest tech company, to build the Obama care website, apparently unphased that fellow Canadians in Ontario had just fired CGI last year for failing to deliver a different health-care IT project on time. Orwell, er oh well. Any minute now the website should be up and running again. In the meantime, let’s sing a tribute to Obama care.
(Sung to the tune of O Canada)
(Want the accompaniment? Click here.)
O Bamacare, health care for one and all.
Click on the link, and watch the website stall.
With anxiety, we sign in for free, to avoid the penalty.
Then we try to call, as our last hopes fall,
There’s no Obama care for me!
God keep us from, social anarchy,
O Bamacare, when will you ever be?
O Bamacare, when will you ever be?
