***UPDATED BELOW***
If Democrats didn't have all the incentive they needed to pass health care reform already, then conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh may have provided the final push they needed by vowing to flee the country if the reform bill is passed.
Responding to a caller who asked him where he would go for health care if Congress enacts reform, Limbaugh replied,
I don't know. I'll just tell you this, if this passes and it's five years from now and all that stuff gets implemented -- I am leaving the country. I'll go to Costa Rica.

So el Blubbo left NY to pay more taxes? Or to AVOID paying taxes? Now he is stuck in FL and TX--and Costa Rica. Here is the conundrum you failed to comprehend. If it was factually cheaper for el Blubbo to be "self sufficient", then he would do it--as would ALL the wealthy (because they save a lot of money--RIGHT?). They DON'T. Which would mean THEY know it is cheaper for them to leech off the public teat than to "go it alone". Thus, it is proven t(byond a shadow of a doubt) he wealthy do NOT pay enough in taxes.

Not true. Where can one "go it alone," anyway? Maybe find some island someplace? The prosperity that the free market market brings us needs a legal framework in which to operate. Left-wingers lie and dissemble when they assert that people support the free market want no laws at all. That is either a deliberate distortion, or sheer ignorance, of course. People like Limbaugh got rich in a market that had protections of Rule of Law, and anyone with the guts to take risk and who have creativity are free to take a shot at it, unless Left-wingers get in the way with their burdensome rules, limitations and regulations.
Imagine the Wright Brothers today! Heck, they would be arrested for what they did by the Left-winger Safety Police!

"Enough" in Leftist-Land means taking "enough" profits to fund a welfare state. "Enough" for Liberals means the redistribution of wealth by taking it from the productive members of society.
Take a look at two variables: The % of national income the upper EVIL 1% (or 5%) have, and the % of the total revenue each group pays in taxes.
You will see that they pay far MORE than their "fair share." Heck, I think they have grounds for a class-action lawsuit!

The meaning of the word "Morals", well it's not in their very slim dictionary. It does not exist for them. Demonize the "lefties", demonize "the poor", worship the 1%ers as holy and the elect of their snake-handler god. Preach lies and propaganda they claim as true morality, but real morals, they don't know what that would mean.

Good post Kenny but I wish it would finally drop down the popularity list because I'm so sick of looking at this venomous knuckle dragging POS. Let's face it folks: JABBA isn't going anywhere. This ass hat never follows through on anything in his whole life!
First, like so many rabid talking heads today... he's never going to willingly pull his fat pie hole from the money filled hate fest that is his radio show.

EX-ACTLY.
I have asked a simple question, and I want to repeat it and see what I get from some others.
Take town A. For decades, even generations, people have been buying locally, from the ma and pa stores, from the local shoe salesman whose grandfather set up the store, etc.
Then Walmart comes. It has convenience with many items all in one location, and the prices are cheaper, too.
Many of the ma and pa and other local stores go bankrupt, places that have been there for many, many years.
Well, these Left-wingers blame Walmart. But why didn't the townspeople keep buying locally? The prices did not go up. Just because things were cheaper and they could do one-stop shopping?
Well. Who was "responsible" for the stores going bust: Walmart or the locals? I know you know the answer, of course.....

I remember when ESPN hired this guy, the specifically told him, "no politics, no controversy, just talk about sports," and the guy lasted about three weeks, before he dropped some bombshell about how the media was infatuated with Donovan McNabb for being a black quarterback. I remember when he said that, all the other guys around the table just sat there, dumbfounded. You could've heard a pin drop. They were just so shocked at what he said they were speechless. ESPN fired him the following day because he broke the deal. The deal was "no politics, no controversy, just sports," and he could only stick to it for three or four weeks.

Is it weird that in order to escape "socialized Obamacare" Rush tells listeners that he'll go to Costa Rica...which has Universal Healthcare?
Perhaps he was alluding to the more intellectual viewers that he is actually in favor of Universal Healthcare. I mean, why else would he be so dumb as to chose Costa Rica?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_in_Costa_Rica
Costa Rica provides universal health care to its citizens and permanent residents. Costa Rica offers some of the best health care in Latin America. Both the private and public health care systems are always being uprgraded. New hospitals, new clinics, new machines, and improvement in staff and training. "Statistics from the World Health Organization frequently place Costa Rica in the top country rankings in the world for long life expectancy." This is because of the slower pace of living, the healthy and non-preservative foods, and the tropical climate. "The UN (United Nations) has ranked Costa Rica’s public health system within the top 20 worldwide and the number 1 in Latin America!" - 11 months ago
