Got an enlarged prostate, pneumonia, or aids? Guess who's getting a sesame street bandaid!
Put your money in it now. Actually, scratch that. The government is gonna put that money in FOR YOU!
YES THEY CAN....WILL...and DID!
Stock tip #2
With 2012, talks of succession, economy collapsing and just people generally preparing for Z-day, companies with merchandise pertaining to disaster preparedness would be a good stock in the next couple of years.
- MREs
- Food storage device (tins, plastic buckets, those little oxygen absorbing packets)
- Water purifying kits

Both of those are horrible ideas.
1) There will not be an increase of band-aids, cough syrup or anything that is over the counter just because of this heath care bill. AFAIK, there won't even be more hospitals being built due to this bill. So it wont change how much they order. Also, just because someone has health insurance does not mean they are hitting up the doctor every other day. I am sure there will be limitations of visits, or what is given to them for a remedy.
2) The doomsday r-tards already stocked up. There is not a new influx of people going OMFG ITS ALMOST 2012 LETS STOCK UP AT THE LAST MIN!!!
People will continue to live their lives as normal as they do today. The doomsday rednecks with their underground shelters and such already have 3-6 years of food supply.
And wouldn't investing in the worlds end, or people believing it will end make that a paradox? What if the world ends, and you invested into it? idk something sounds stupid about it to me......
