Heath Care Ration(alizing).



I found this on the web today. It's all of the "good reasons" why the people are opposed to the health care bill. I can't stress enough that health should be about people’s…HEALTH….not about money! Or like in the cartoon, enemies.

There is an idea that a lot of Americans share. The idea of “individuality.”

Basically it’s this:
“My taxes pay for these people’s food stamps”
“It’s not fair to pay for a war that I don’t want”
“I don’t need to pay for these people’s health insurance”

It’s the idea that people should do things for themselves, kind of like survival of the fittest.

There is a long history in America of what some call a (Non) System. Basically, these safety nets that are made for people who need help such as food stamps, Medicaid, so on, is not as effective as it seems to be.

I feel the same way when I get my paycheck and there is money for Social Security taken out and I don’t even know if I will ever get it back!

However, it is what we have to do because we live in this country and because those are the laws. There is no way to get around taxes because they are necessary to keep the government going!

So, I might be saying this now because I’m not paying up but money is the most disposable thing that we have!
It comes and it goes. I think that a person’s life is worth more.
