Little blurbs like this just start my day with a good laugh. Nothing like starting my day with a nice bowl of irony...

The Case for Government-Run Ketchup [Mark Hemingway]
From the Senate Republican Policy Committee:
Senator Kerry just went on about the outrageous profits of health insurers who dominate the market and offer little choice to consumers. That’s an interesting point considering that according to the website of Heinz ketchup, the company holds a 60 percent retail market share. Heinz products enjoy #1 or #2 market share in more than 50 countries. And according to Yahoo Finance, Heinz profits (8.6 percent) are more than double the health insurance industry (3.3 percent). Government run Ketchup, anyone?
