--A relevant anecdote: My wife and daughter went to a health care town 
hall with our House rep, Brian Baird.  When one of the speakers 
mentioned the health insurance corps' massive profits and huge CEO 
salaries, the teabaggers cheered.  It's almost grotesque the way they 
valorize the very people who are screwing them over.  It's like an 
economic version of Stockholm Syndrome.
