Of course the rich deserve better health care. To Bush we are subhuman, and must be grateful for any kindness or assistance they can bestow upon us. The best quality health care to them is a divine right, whereas we only need to be healthy enough to continue working...
I like your idea though, but it's much too fair to EVER be accepted by the right. They'll call it something...
