[Newspoetry] Single Prayer Medicare

[DL Emerick]

Republicans offer single-prayer medicare
<http://www.truthout.org/issues_06/120507HA.shtml> .

All GoP presidential candidates buy the idea:
The healing power of Jesus is all anyone needs -
Why, faith can move mountains, heal the sick, raise the dead.

To have national health insurance is to deny Jesus, HMOSelf.

Faith-based health-care is a time-honored tradition, too -
Why else does America persist in 3rd world care levels?

Besides, national medical care would relieve misery,
Which is a primary support for religion,
Along with masses that are poor,
Even if they happen to be yearning to breathe free,
A latency dangerous to the state of every tyranny,
A danger every tyranny seeks to end,
This wild idea of breathing free -
If only it could be taxed, at worst,
Or even better, privatized,
As I totally recall <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_Recall>  in some
movie.

Are they all secret Christian Scientists
