Lord in heaven are we in trouble. I just had a long conversation with people I
know that had a child born premature. This child had a tough go to pull through
and still has therapy and other medical issues. Although they had health
insurance they eventually owed almost three million dollars to hospitals and
Drs. They actually had to declare
chapter 13 in order to keep their house. The husband works very hard for a
small firm and because of his child the firm had to get cheaper insurance. This
couple still has ongoing medical bills of over $20,000 a month. They are just hanging on by a thread and I
admire them for their bravery and calmness.
I did find it odd when I broached them with the Idea of a
national health care plan. The first thing the wife said was “I hear they have
trouble in Canada seeing a DR. They say the wait is very long” The husband
chimed in with “once this Obama care starts things will only get worse “
I almost cried. If these people are going to
vote against President Obama what chance does our country have? If these people
are against a single payer system and the ACA, what chance does reason have in
the future of our country? I really do feel like crying. I feel so depressed
