EXactly! I think we aught to ban golf! Screw those rich people out of having a good time with all that *easy money*. Just think of all the neat new reality based TV programming that could replace it like *ManTracker Through Mine Fields* or *Escape From North Korea* or *Busted Gay in Iran*.

You'd better leave recourse for that. Certainly malpractice insurance adds a ridiculous amount to our medical bills. It probably wouldn't be so necessary if all doctors were interested in practicing medicine and not just as a source of revenue so they can spend more time on the golf course. And malpractice insurance is only part of the medical bloat. Requiring a staff to deal with health insurance companies is another. Gee, it all comes back to insurance. Time to scrutinize the ENTIRE insurance scam ... er I mean industry.
