Healthcare or Health-Beware?
As I have watched all the reports about health care, it's becoming more and more clear to me that we don't need the government in control of our health care. I will be the first to admit that our system needs an overhaul. I have insurance through my employer and I'm pleased with what I have. However, I have a close relative that is disabled (yes they are disabled with severe arthritis). They are allowed to make a certain amount and still be disabled. This person made $50 over the allowable amount and had their Tn-care pulled. They are in their 60's and can't afford to go out and purchase a policy. So what are they going to do? Who knows. Granted they should have stayed under the amount but they didn't. They could have lied but they were honest and reported their earnings...a whopping $50 over! My goodness! They should come and repossessed the car and house too! It's Crazy! Yet there are people who have tn-care or other "public" options that are abusing the system to obtain medication they can sell on the streets. It's not going to be any different if the government gets involved on a national level. If you are a scammer, you will still be able to beat the system. Those that are honest will go without. I don't believe we need to allow Uncle Sam to be in control. It will be a move in the wrong direction! Let's fix what we have first! Beware!!!!!
