The blowhard politicians choose to overlook what's already in place. Just put the money in the programs that already exist for Pete's sake!GunDivahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02965363044411500380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472361006103657328.post-68304748695182413632010-02-15T20:47:35.121-08:002010-02-15T20:47:35.121-08:00I feel like I'm going to a gun fight with a kn...I feel like I'm going to a gun fight with a knife when people start talking politics. I know I should be more informed and get more involved...<br /><br />All I can say is that we are one of the top 10 richest countries in the world and dadgummit, it seems like we should be able to take care of our sick citizens...even if they don't have insurance because their employer doesn't offer it and they make too much money to get medicaid. Seems like it should be one of the benefits of being an American citizen and paying your taxes. I don't know how we get there from here, I just know we should. <br /><br />There. That's about as political as I get. That was a full 2 cents worth.Resentful Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10415151978725500562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472361006103657328.post-48857352925544648942010-02-15T10:19:58.402-08:002010-02-15T10:19:58.402-08:00The truth is, K, those in healthcare are split on ...The truth is, K, those in healthcare are split on reform. Even within my small community at the college, there are different feelings about it. I have an issue with re-inventing the wheel. There's a push in my area for a single-payor system, which isn't the answer either. As I've said before, medicine's not broken - insurance is. The problem that ANY President is going to have their hands tied because the insurance industry lobby is one of the biggest in the nation.GunDivahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02965363044411500380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472361006103657328.post-52131748800806602932010-02-15T07:25:21.040-08:002010-02-15T07:25:21.040-08:00Well, I guess I can't gripe anymore. In truth,...Well, I guess I can't gripe anymore. In truth, I was hoping for something about what health care reform should look like from the perspective of one in the industry; but, beggars can't be choosers. I do like the point about enforcing the laws already on the books instead of reinventing the legislative wheel. That applies to a whole lot more issues than just healthcare.Daddy Hawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01386749814126280114noreply@blogger.com
