    LIMBAUGH: Yeah, it would, if -- with other -- yeah, if you get some other players out of the game, yeah -- of course.

    CALLER: What do you mean by “other players” ? I'm sorry.

    LIMBAUGH: Government -- get the government out of it. Get the government -- their stupid regulations. Get the government out of Medicare. You -- look it, the only way that cost or price ratios make sense is based on the consumer's ability to pay. There has to be a direct relationship between the customer and the business at the surface.

    CALLER: OK. I just broke my wrist and it's costing me $6,000. I can't afford that.

    LIMBAUGH: Well, you shouldn't have broken your wrist.


    Limbaugh: OK. I just terminally fucked my lungs and it's costing me my life. I can't afford that.

    God: Well, you shouldn't have smoke cigars.
