    I assume this is in reference to what U.S. citizens will be doing for health care and everything else if Obama and Company have their way.

    It's satire. If you're familiar with the game Monopoly, you probably know it's based on the economic concept of buying and selling land, and the development of that land. However, since the future of America is looking more like that of a communist country, it may not be long until we are standing in line, hence the standing in line game. I think every Obama supporter needs this new game.

    In communist countries (Russia in particular was famous for this) during the 1970's and 1980's, there were long lines at stores for scarce basic needs such as bread. People had to wait in line for hours when grocery stores actually had food, then often, the stores would run out. This wasn't because of any failure on the part of agriculture, but rather an epic failure on the part of management and distribution. They actually had crops rotting in the fields, because trucks couldn't seem to be dispatched to gather and transport the harvest. This is what happens when people try to run a country without God, Whom the communists adamantly rejected, claiming that godless man was the absolute truth, when in fact, all they managed to prove is that godless man is an absolute failure. Atheists and Marxists, however, still beg to differ, even in the face of such glaring facts...
