Radio host Rush Limbaugh has said he will leave the country if healthcare reform legislation is passed. Interestingly, most other countries in the world have a single payer health care system or at least a public option, neither of which the proposed health care plan has.

What’s most telling is the country that Limbaugh intends to go to get healthcare if Obama’s plan passes. “I’ll just tell you this,” Rush Limbaugh said. “If this passes and it’s five years from now and all that stuff gets implemented — I am leaving the country. I’ll go to Costa Rica.”

Costa Rica has a universal, single payer health care system, unlike the system proposed in Obama’s health care plan.

Why Costa Rica for Rush? The word on the street is that, as California has medical marijuana, Costa Rica has medical oxycontin (wait, that’s the United States).
