Finally, I would show this:



Then a PowerPoint slide that says: MEDICARE IS GOVERNMENT RUN HEALTHCARE

Finally, I would open by asking for a show of hands regarding who relies on or knows someone who relies on Medicare?

1. Need a couple of slides on outcome rankings vs other countries and waiting times . . .
Including waiting forever when the insurance company cancels you.

2. Take your cameras. Take pictures of the disrupters and their buses.
When the disrupters start their rants, take their pictures. Follow them to their buses or cars and take pictures. They will hate that.

3. I had thoughts along the same line.
Each congressman should have a hand-out listing all the pluses of the program, combating the talking points of the repukes and the insurance industries, and answering most of the frequently asked questions. Then, the congressman should go over each of the points in detail, clearly explaining his point of view. Finally, he should answer only questions presented beforehand and in writing.
