Billionaires for WealthCare: GROUP MOCKS OPPONENTS OF HEALTHCARE

atomiclegion
“Health Care for Profit, Not for People!” “Let Them Eat Advil.” "Fear, Lies, Sedition! Pre-Existing-Condition!"

Echoing through the streets of Washington on Saturday, the chants of a new political formation are sweeping the nation: The Billionaires for Wealthcare!

On Saturday 9/12, tens of thousands of conservative activists marched in Washington in opposition to big government and the Obama health care plan. Inspired by right-wing Fox News pundit Glenn Beck and funded and organized by Freedom Works, the organization directed by former congressman Dick Armey, the march was a much-hyped follow-up to anti-tax rallies on April 15th.

Among the marchers were the satirical Billionaires for Wealthcare, a self-described “grassroots network of health insurance CEOs, HMO lobbyists, talk-show hosts, and others profiting off our broken health care system.” They joined the march to “thank the teabaggers for protecting health-care industry profits.”

The Billionaires motto is: “If we’re not broke, don’t fix it.”
