"Health Care?" or "Wealth Share?"

“Health Care?” or “Wealth Share?” Which? We are really only made partially aware what this new law is going to impose. But I understand that it is not being available until four years from inception, and that all folks, especially the young (a great percentage of them out of work) must pay into this new plan enforced by law (that no one of the Folks voted for) or be incarcerated.

Hmmm. I was under the impression that folks incarcerated can lead to their becoming labled a felon. And I do believe, that folks, you know the citizens, who become felons, lose their right to vote.

Let’s see. Three more years of Obama and Chicago MOB in the Administration of the United States, and the imminent possibility of incarceration of many of our young folks, losing their voting rights and another election coming up in four years, and the promise to bring home the troups in three years, adds up to totalitarianism. To add to this ominous reality, Obama has already used prisoners to fill jobs that should have been made available to the folks who are out of work, and not prisoners who are supposed to be punished for their various crimes against the society.

Besides, to get back to the “wealth share” plan being put into law, just how much of the huge tax demanded from all who must buy into this plan that is coming into effect 4 years from now, will be left of this collected tax after four years?

The way this Administration has dipped into the cookie jar so far, and spread it lavishly around among themselves and political compatriots will be left to pay any doctor to care for anyone. Realize, that a doctor goes to college and professional graduate school for many yeasr and studies, so as to be able to care for folks in need of health care and advice. And, to pay for an office, facility, clinic, hospital also costs a lot of money, even down to the janitors to keep it clean.

Good luck. Better begin to grow some herbs in some little patches here and there and be sure to get a hold of some herbal remedies. Of course you may be labled a “Witch” as folks who preferred to use herbs in the 1960s were labled. Who cares. I’m sure the Village Wise Folks of olden times who were labled Witch, from WICCA, which meant Wise One in Italian, didn’t mind, except that they were hung once in a while. But most of them persevered anyway. Of course, herbs and knowledge of how to stay healthy don’t do much good in case of a traumatic accident.

All I can say is “Pray a lot.”

And, it wouldn’t hurt to make your voice heard, you know, let your Representatives and Senators know who they were elected to represent.

I certainly hope that many of them have a conscience and didn’t just lie to get a job, which they figured would get them close to the ex-checker of the folks and take their chance to get rich at the expense of the folks. It appears that all a Congressman/woman has to do is hold out and not vote for a bill untill they are paide a huge sum of money as a bribe, which is stolen from the folks’ funds supposedly honestly managed by the elected representatives. For instance, just how much did this “Health Care” plan cost anyway? And still the folks are expected to pay for it.

Remember the old saying that “God helps those that help themselves?

Well, it is time we get together and help ourselves out of this calamity. God will be at our side, you can bettcha.

And, I am sure, we can figure out a better way to improve our insurance system. The medical community has their act together, it is the insurance companies refusing to lower their fees that need to be brought to account. For instance ,competing across state lines would certainly do a whole lot to bring the insurance costs down and no one would be forced to buy any form of insurance, unless they had the money and desired to do so. As well, the law-suits against doctors has to be studied and decency injected into the possible mistakes that humans do make once in a while which should be handled in decent fashion, without on occasion sueing just to get rich.

I practiced chiropractic in California, and on two occasions, folks tried to get me to help them sue honest doctors, just so they could make money. On one occasion an attorney even wrote a letter for one of these criminally minded folks signing my name to it, whereupon I made it quite well known to the company being sued that I had absolutely nothing to do with the claim. In my examination of the individual in question who was trying to use a very old broken ankle, I found that the dishonest patient was trying to use for the excuse to sue for a slip and fall of recent occurence which did absolutely nothing to his body, except possible bruse his tuckus. And that I don’t even know if it happened, because I did not examine the patient for a few weeks after his so-called injury. It is these types of things that must be addressed, not control of the lives of every person in the United States, and that is what this “Health Care” lie is all about.
