by Eunice Wentworth
While Americans express anger at predatory insurance practices, Billionaires for Wealthcare say: "Let them eat Advil".

As the Senate prepares for a huge vote on health care legislation, on February 25th residents from San Francisco and surrounding areas gathered at Blue Cross offices at 2 Embarcadero Center to highlight the need for robust reform. These demonstrators came face-to-face with Billionaire defenders of Blue Cross' right to do whatever they damn well please.

Members of Billionares for Wealthcare demanded honor and respect for the personhood of Blue Cross, and took the opportunity to announce the ticket of Blue Cross/Palin for 2012.

Billionaire Eunice Wentworth said, "Blue Cross has continued enjoying record profits and increased membership, and they have every right to raise prices during a recession. We are here in front of Blue Cross/Anthem corporate offices to let those silly health care reform demonstrators know that we will not allow the health care needs of Americans to affect the profits of billionaires."
