In the healthcare debate the supporters have utilized the English language in a way that few people have realized. I hear almost everyday someone who supports the current effort to remake the American health care system say that they support “heath care.” In reply the opposition will say that they oppose it. I can’t say for sure, but I feel confident that what the person meant was; that they opposed the current legislation. The fact that it is even said conveys a hidden meaning. I propose that the opposition to the government takeover of the American Healthcare system be referred to at “The Healthcare Deformation,” or just simply “The Deformation” pronounced Daf-or-máysh’n.
The saving grace for the American people is that you are not as ignorant as thought. When I heard the opposition to the plan, I understood it. But there are many out there who don’t pay attention and think that those opposed to this plan, in the words of a partisan member of Congress: want you to die and die quickly. That type of outrageous language may fool some, but it seems that you are not as stupid as they had hoped. The sad part of this type of ridicules partisan nonsense only convinces more Americans that those in power are not willing to work to solve problems. It is arrogant and stupid to attack others in such a manner. Just because I disagree with a plan does not mean that it is OK to demonize me. I know that I heard alternatives being discussed in public, but the party in power was unwilling to listen. They preferred to ignore anything but their own voice in an echo chamber.
