The roll-over isn't working...

Rodger, Well done. It is a very useful model to evaluate who benefits under Hillary Care and then to extrapolate which constituency of voters she wants to attract (older women). Given the aging population of baby boomers and the fact that women live longer than men, it's a politically valid (if morally contemptible) strategy. It also fits a feminist dynamic - despoil your oppressors! It should be useful also to examine who is going to pay for this. My guess is people who live shorter lives - men certainly, and poor black men the most (e.g. FICA they pay and never collect). What I find most objectionable, is that this is a majority voting themselves the hard earned money out of others' pockets, and therefore nothing less than robbery.
