Health Care

So this is what change looks like. If he were here, Mr. Speaker, in this time of momentous national distress, I would remind the President of the United States that he is not the leader of a party or an ideology; he is the leader of our country—one founded, not to emulate others, but to inspire the world.

 

My husband and I are watching this debate since this healthcare reform has been ongoing. We do agree with some of it, but not giving up our freedom for it. I understand insurance companies should take you even if you have a pre-existing condition, but do not charge us for it. If people do not have health care they should not be fined because what if the person is unemployed and has no means to pay for that fine. I don't know about you, but eventually that will lead the people to jail because they cannot pay for the fine. So, now, this will overcrowd our jails more than they already are. This bill is wrong and should be thrown in the trash. It should be revamped and Americans should be able to submit suggestions.

Blair House Summit: Obama’s Moses Moment…Not so much! by Dr. David Janda Last Thursday, February 25th, the Obama Administration staged a ‘Health Care Summit’ at Blair House. It was to be the President’s President “Moses Moment,” when e would part the seas and bring the Republicans, Democrats and Our country together and get everyone on board his “much maligned” Federally Run Health Care Program. (ObamaCare 2.0). His approach would be to “Listen,” particularly to The Republicans and Independents, and then part the Seas of Conflict and pass through to the Promised Land of a compromise. Well, it was over, finally over, after 7 hours of heavy winds.

I saw something interesting toady. Premier Danny Williams from Newfoundland, Canada is coming to the United States to receive heart surgery. I guess even those leading Canada want to escape the disastrous experiment known as socialized medicine. We have the best healthcare system and the best doctors in the world. So again, why do we want a shoddy version of what is in Canada? They don't even trust the system to work for a population smaller than that of California. So how on earth is it going to work for us? Reform is needed but the current legislation is so heinous that it is clearly not the answer. The article: http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=2510700

What the heck are you afraid of? Why won't you stand up to the President? These policies that Obama and his puppets are going to ram down are throats are economy killers. Every reasonable thinking American Citizen can see that. We have voiced our concerns loud and clear. We have told you that we do not want any part of this so called healthcare bill, we do not want cap and tax, we do not want amnesty. We want to explore and use our own energy resources! We want to improve the health care that we have through logical methods, and that does not mean taxing the working people so that the one that wont work can have health care.

There is no question that healthcare needs reform. But the last thing we need is to Rush reform without thinking through the consequences of a failed not well thought out Healthcare policy! We cannot just changed it. We need to change it for the better!

Democrats hate that Republicans are willing, on the issue of embryonic stem-cell research, to let their straitened moral views supposedly stand in the way of medical progress. But Democrats have their own ethical problem with medical progress - based on their moral qualms about the profit motive.
