Cynical thought of the week…
I wonder if the ludicrous amount of media hype dedicated to the Oh-my-god-it’s-the-swine-flu-come-to-kill-us-all! has anything to do with trying to scare people into accepting healthcare reform. For the record, I’m all for healthcare reform, but I don’t appreciate fear tactics towards any end. The regular old flu is projected to kill more people this flu season than swine flu. Why are we still hearing about swine flu?
