Gov Funded Healthcare

[Pandora]

Sadly, the "working poor" make up a large number of the uninsured. Honest people who work long hours and barely remain afloat. Many employers do not provide benefits of any sort, often by hiring employees at just below full-time employment to avoid providing insurance, sick time, etc.

Nobody wants to subsidize those who milk the system, but more often it is the super wealthy and the big corporations that cheat the rest of us.

HERE HERE!!!! :aktion033: :aktion033: The super wealthy/big corps are also the ones that cannot or will not see what is happening around them. If they dont see it, it must not be happening.

That is why I'm for revamping the insurance and medical industry in a private matter and leaving the gov't out of it. The political leaders don't care one whit about the people who voted for them.

Wish I had the answers of how to solve the problem with health care. It is absolutely scarey to see what doctors and hospitals charge for anything !! Medical costs are way out of line for the average working person unless their place of emplyment offers some type of plan. What upsets me is the fact that those of us that do buy our insurance are paying for those who don't.....through our taxes or through the higher costs that doctors and hospitals charge for those who don't have money to pay. So many people get onto SS so easily anymore and once on to SS they then can apply for medicare...makes me sick to see those people who use the social programs the government will provide and yet they are often the ones who are buying the horses and toys or having a good time. Many of these so called disabled people are actually able to do a whole lot when no one is looking. I truly believe there are people who are disabled and cannot get a job because of it and I have nothing against those people. It is the ones who Are capable but take advantage of government programs just to make their life easier while the rest work to pay for it! Government rarely solves problems, it just makes more.
