Health Insurance Reform: The Twitter Solution

Why Health Insurance Reform? Why now? Why ever? Who is it for?

These are questions that are hard to answer. Ask any political pundit and you will get a bunch of uhm’s and uh’s. Half of them don’t know whether they are coming or going. More than half of them have yet to read the bill or any of its revisions. What we have is hundreds of congressman making revisions to documents and slapping them on the table, creating a pile so high and so convoluted no one will ever understand it.

Filibustered without a word…this is why we have Twitter.

Our congressmen need to start working congress like the masses work with Twitter. 140 words or less. Sum up your statements in 2 or 3 twitter posts. If you spam twitter, no one will follow you. It is easy to find out who is a bot and who is not. If you have consistent, precise and concise ideas and posts, you will have a massive following. Create discussion with people that is simple. Stop BSing the American people. No one cares how big or small the Reform package is anymore. It is a dynamic document, it is changing daily and unfortunately, it is not stored in any one spot for collaborative editing.

Maybe Congress not only needs twitter ethics but Google Docs so they can all see what the hell is going on at once. I can’t imagine the mess of paperwork that has been created with thousands of Congressman’s aids preparing the newest version or newest summary of what the Health Insurance Reform document reads.

Woe to those who are unpaid interns at the mercy of Obamacare and Health Insurance Reform…I feel for their eyes for they must bleed revising that thousand page document nightly.
