Thomas Fleming Weighs in on the Healthcare Debate

"The healthcare debate is as boring and stupid as every other debate in the United States," he begins — Just Say No—To Healthcare. After noting that "both sides are lying," he suggests "we had better ignore the entire issue and do something useful," like "[r]ead the poems of Leconte de Lisle, smoke a cigar, say nice things to pretty women in a bar, take your kids fishing."

Dr. Fleming has begun his "own moral and spiritual revolution" which will include "an annual vacation to a free country like Mexico, where the price for pretty-good care and medicines is so low, it will pay for the vacation." He also "intend[s] to live, not just to avoid death."
