Well, on the other hand, do you remember playing Army as kids and
you've designated your two sisters and little brother and maybe the
runny-nosed little neighbor kid as enemy combatants, and they
wander off into the woods, only to reappear way too early, before
you've expended the big firepower, you know, the real fun, and you
shoo'em back to their hiding places so you can stalk and kill them,
which you do, then you parade them at gunpoint, smeared with a
little ketchup, in review before your mother, who humors you and
them, and then she fixes a little hot chocolate for the lot, and
then you get a little cocky, being a victor and all, and go to bed
all warm and safe, and you wake up in the morning and defund
Medicare and Medicaid?
