We’ve Got You Covered

by Steven Kent

“House Republicans pass health care plan without re-upping insurance subsidies”
Politico

Insurance, no—
We’re deaf to all your pleading.
Here’s Motrin, though,
And Band-Aids for the bleeding.

All’s well, God bless;
Your welfare won’t impact us.
It’s simple, yes:
We preach what we malpractice.
