HARRY BUYS A NEW CAR
Senator Reid went to a local GM dealer in Washington, D.C. to buy a brand new vehicle. Harry looked around and found one he liked. After going back and forth with the salesman, Harry settled on a price of 45,000.
Harry and the salesman go back to the office to complete the paperwork. Harry works out a 4 year payment plan, and signs on the bottom line.
The salesman shakes the Senator's hand and says, "Thanks Senator Reid, the car will be ready for pickup in 4 years."
Harry says, "What are you talking about? Where are the keys to my new car?"
The salesman replies, "No, you don't understand Senator. You make payments for 4 years...THEN we give you the car. You know, just like your health plan".
