Health Care is the Issue

Interesting. I didn't know that Ted Kennedy worked on the bill with then Gov of Mass. Mitt Romney to get required health care for each individual signed into law for that state. I believe the first year it was about $400. per month and if you didn't have it by the second year the cost went up to about $1,000. Anyway, yes, Kennedy and Romney. So Ted Kennedy must be for required (mandated) insurance coverage for each individual. Companies with over 20,000 employees are required to provide health care for their workers. Why only large corporations. You know why? Because Corporations do not want to mess with health care at all and so Romney was taking the burden away from the guy who gets all the tax breaks (the head of the business and corporation). See, always for the business guy, never for the worker. It's so depressing.

So now Ted Kennedy is endorsing Barack Obama and Obama's health care plan initiative does not mandate health insurance for each individual because Obama believes that people who can't afford health insurance just won't get it anyway. Those people rely on Emergency care and that bill is picked up by the tax payers - you know the good old middle class. We are just being so drained. If only Bush wouldn't have allowed large corporations to run amok.

Hillary's health insurance plan will include everyone and those who cannot afford it will be supplemented.

I don't actually go along with the claim that Canadians have to wait for months for elective surgery and treatment. But, it's actually true. I asked a recently retired couple visiting here in the United States from Canada and the man said that "Yes, it's true". He said that many people actually come to the United States for health care. But, he said perscription drugs made by the same companies and sold in Canada were so much cheaper there in Canada.

I do believe however that government ran health care in England, France and Germany is very good but taxes are high in those countries. But it seems that no one cares. Really, what's the difference between having to pay higher tax or costly, high, monthly premiums? I'd sooner pay the high tax and be sure that my insurance provider will not bail on me during treatment of an extended illness.

Out government works well for the very rich or the very poor and those in the middle carry the brunt of the burden for the rest of the population.

It would be so nice to actually have a government that cares for the average middle class citizens between there no longer is a middle class; because they are poor now and homeless due to a medical crisis.

There is something dreadfully wrong with the administration of this country. How can they look in the mirror. They haven't done a single thing right after over seven years. Just when you think things can get any worse they do.

And ignorant George Bush I believe actually thinks he did and is doing a good job. He lies right and left saying the "no child left behind" is working in math and science. I know a handful or more of teachers who would readily dispute that.

Oh my god, war monger John McCain is on Jay Leno (I had it recorded) and he is such a war monger. The only thing he knows is war, war, war. I am so sick of war. And now he says, there is a whole new industry out there, hybrids and other green technologies. I can't believe how it takes government twenty years are more to get anything done. And I think McCain could have a short fuzz.

I think half of Mexico will be over here before we do anything about closing the southern border. Yet they about hand pat me down at the airport and measure our ounces of liquid we are carrying. And the let corporations run amok until they have just about ruined this country... and once more; to bail them out..they borrow more money from Communist China.

You know maybe Bush and Cheney do have a plan and that is to sell this country out to communist China. That money they are giving us is coming from China. They have allowed companies to give away our good jobs. Just where do they think tax money will come from if we have no good paying jobs. And no one can earn a living on minimum wage of six bucks? Are they stupid or greedy with a very daring plan. I think greedy and stupid. Hey Bush, a real president monitors what is going on in his country and nips problem in the bud .. not allow them to go on and on and on because he doesn't give a shit about the average tax payer. Well Busy you certainly made it clear enough that you would rather be the president of Iraq. Because for the first how-many state of the unions it was all we heard about. Iraq, Iraq, Iraq. I'm sick of it!

I'm tired. This makes me tired. I'm going to bed!
