Prediction: If Rush lives.....
...he'll claim it was because of America's "best healthcare in the world" and use it as a reason to kill healthcare reform.

If he dies...

....his supporters will claim that Obama's team in Hawaii had something to do with it.

4. Hawaii has a regulated system of private insurers
Most employers are required to provide insurance and that insurance must have low copays and deductibles so people can actually access care. As a result of people being able to get medical care, Hawaii has some of the lowest insurance costs in the nation.

There was an article about it in the Minneapolis Star Tribune a few months ago but I can't find the link.

8. Rush is going to live to be 90... Assholes like him always do
And he does have the best health care in the world. Too bad his audience thinks they are getting the same care as he is.
