I know you get all huffy about cheating the system. But you don't have to worry about me and Bat. That option ain't open. When I was in my 20's you could go to the dentist and then skip out on the bill, which I did back then, but those days are long gone.
Seriously, medical care should be universal, cause not dying of whatever should not be the benefit of the wealthy, and dental care probably should too, cause having a missing tooth basically turns you into someone who can only get hired by Burger King anyway. Dental care unless you are militant about your teeth can legitimately be a barrier between lower and middle class. I mean it's not as important as actual medical care, but it's still pretty ****ing important.

And regardless of your position on that I will gladly **** over the government so that I have my teeth. **** every one of your laws I want my teeth.
