Marx Brothers Care

Our ObamaNation has learned that Daniele Hannan, British member of the European Parliament, argued that Britain’s National Health Service is “literally a Marxist system” because it takes from each according to his ability and gives to each according to his need. “This is the basis of communism,” he said, stressing that the NHS is “morally corrosive” because it requires its bureaucrats to make bad decisions about how to distribute the scarce resources of health care.

Our ObamaNation agrees that having a health care system based on the comedy work of the Marx brothers seems like a silly idea.
