I've been meaning to address the historic passage of the health care bill, but wasn't feeling fully qualified to break it down, so I got the noted health care expert and standup comic Hari Kondabolu to give his thoughts on Obama's health care plan, and what he thinks we could have done to fight harder for truly progressive reform.

You can see Hari live on Thursday night here in NY, when he headlines at Comix with another great comic, Baron Vaughn.

  • @JerseySpic this video said the exact opposite of what you are saying it said.

  • @JerseySpic and just generally speaking, your arrogance is misplaced. Just because we disagree doesn't mean either of us is "lost." Many intelligent and informed people have divergent opinions on these topics.

  • Half way through I was thinking "hmm reminds me of that Swift essay." ^.^

    Very funny video!

  • That was absolutely brilliant, one of the best videos I've seen on youtube.

    Initially, I felt like it was largely failed humor, however once the allusion to A Modest Proposal becomes clear, it all makes sense. I almost feel stupid for not realizing it earlier. This is how satire is supposed to be.

  • A Modest Proposal reference :D

  • the presidents are always just puppets, they don't really control anything.
