“There are far too many computers out there today that have little to no coverage,” Bigov said during the press conference earlier this morning. “We must have compassion for those who can’t afford coverage, but must have a healthy computer to update their Facebook and Twitter pages.”

The plan is widely celebrated by many who live in poverty with computers. However, some say it isn’t enough and are pushing to add coverage for mobile phones, TVs, and cars. “There are so many out there that are struggling to put food on the table,” Senator Erin Blehart told us. “They have just as much a right to healthcare coverage for their electronics as the rich people of the country do.”

Critic of the bill and Director of Operations at CTS (Conolia Tech Support), Daniel Codex, is working on a campaign to stop the bill. “Our job is difficult enough when we have to deal with people who think a DVD-ROM is a cup holder. Now that the government is planning on fronting the bill for viruses, every little issue they run into they’ll think is a virus and will compel them to bring their machines in. They’ll be a waiting list just for us to look at your machine, much less come up with some kind of diagnosis. And those who have real computer problems will have to wait, maybe even until it’s too late to fix.”

But Senator Blehart disagrees. “It’s a small step to a better world controlled by us,” Blehart said before cackling madly.
