To healthcare or not healthcare reform that is the question..
The continued debate by so many brought forward by the President seems to be based on a fact that Americans are too stupid to do what is right for themselves and thus we need to be guided. Without worrying about tomorrow let the government take from those that worked hard and built areas of the country and give it to those that need it more. But who there gets to decide what is needed and by who?
So lets just say that the health care coverage is put into place. It doesn’t get started until 2013 so no one can benefit from it immediately. The money will be taken immediately though and build a buraucracy that would be as bad if not worse then anything in place.
We know social programs like this do not work. Medicaid, medicare, social security all put into place to “AID” and all over used by a system that can not find ways to fund them. How much will this really cost? No one knows and the quality will drop since no one will have a clue about what to do. Sure there may be a few years of some good but really for how long.
So communism doesn’t work. Lets try it we can make it work. Socialism doesn’t work but lets not worry we can do better. Someone can’t find a doctor that speaks English if that is their native and only tongue but there are plenty of others who can be your doctor.
We get to have a rationed system of obscure checks and no real balances and no one gets any real care.
The country needs a change though that is true. Cost of living goes up 3-5% per year and health insurance goes up 25-45%. Seems like a major disconnect when the improvements seem so limited. Why the increase? That is simple enough too many people feel they were wronged by the doctors in some way so they sue. There are instances where people were wronged but not everyone in the system. Or the fact that it takes 10 years for a new drug to come onto the market. That’s great if you are at the end of that cycle and there is a potential solution.
Worst part of all of this is those that will make policy and procedure have no understanding of any of the systems or even medicine. Since I never had a hernia or anything related but did have hemeroids your hemeroids can be taken care of but your hernia will have to suffer. Or even worse since the politicians won’t take the plan themselves as long as their voting constituents aren’t dying then it doesn’t matter.
So the world has proven what is wanted by the powers that be doesn’t work and the people are yelling against it we seem stuck possibly. Its a great plan since the government put it together. Believe that one and I have a bridge in New York to sell you or some land in Florida.
Our system does work but needs to work better. There is a difference between making something broken work and redesigning the system.
