Words matter.

Always use simple direct language.

  • Help the poor
  • Healthcare for everyone
  • Good treatment at work.

Don't use complex words.

Our old babysitter lost her insurance and was suffering. Ex-wife suggested the ACA, showed her how to apply.

"Thank you so much! At least it isn't that damned Obamacare!"

These people exist, millions of them. And most Americans can't fucking read and understand a novel.

As an old friend of mine once had a habit of saying in a sing song voice:

Read a book, read a book, read a motherfucking book!
