(I hope so or else it’s a very sad case of self-delusion or maybe just plain old self-serving ignorance.)

Human beings are not cars. Human beings have things called human rights in all modern civilized societies.

Cars are cars – pieces of metal and stuff manufactured in a factory. You can choose to have one or not or choose to have one and then to give it up. You can’t do that with your body, your health.

Would you have the attitude that your car is interchangeable with your child or your aging parent? Is their illness and health taken care of by an auto mechanic? I’ll bet that Mr. Hurst does not have any children nor any aging and ill parents.

WBUR it’s time to Get Real and stop wasting your readers time with this PR machine for the failing health insurance law and to stop pretending that this site is “a blog”.
