As was once said by a leader of a certain group in our society... "By any means necessary".
I'm worried about you.. with your ill health and constant need for surgery can you afford all this bitterness and hatred? I mean I know you've been unemployed for four years but try to stay upbeat and positive man... Moreover, if you're OK spending your days fighting health insurance companies and trying to get covered for stuff you should be covered for in the first place I can't argue with you man. Live and let live.
Personally I don't get why people would be so bothered about people being able to get health care...seems like a huge step forward to me. To get so worked up about an ill person being able to afford a doctor seems nutty.
No need to worry about me. I am a big boy and I take care of myself. However I have not uttered one word of hatred. (Rusty on the other hand...) People already CAN get health care. They can choose to spend their money how them damn well please. It is not the governments job to get into it though. Consumers have to fight all the time to get corporations to do as they should. I have to deal with Comcast frequently. I guess we should have the government take over the cable companies next since some people choose to spend money elsewhere and "cant afford" cable?
I think there definitely should be universal health care. Everyone who is in this country legally should have health care and food to eat. The problem though is that health care is too expensive. We should try and reduce the costs. Perhaps we should force people to eat healtier and exercise.
One of the things that really bothers me is there are these rest areas all along our interstate highway system and they are government run. In some place like say Northern Maine, a rest area is about the only place you can acquire food near the highway. And the restaurants at these places are typically mcdonalds and burger king. The government should be promoting healthy food. In schools, they have soda, french fries and pizza. What is wrong with this picture.
Do you know how expensive it is to treat someone with diabetes? Yet the government doesn't do anything to help prevent this. Tax soda and junk food like you do cigarettes and alcohol. Use that tax to help pay for healthcare on poor people. You shouldn't be able to buy junk food with food stamps.
Mandate shorter work weeks and more vacation so people can get exercise. Mandate bike lanes on most roads. Create more parks in urban areas. With all the money that this country wastes giving away to other countries or wagin war we could have a better and healthier society.
