How can they (the Senate and House) possibly imagine they are competent and able to run a National Health Care - they have failed with Social Security - did you know when SS was started that all the money pd in was supposed to be invested in Long Term Mutual Funds and other blue chip stock but they could not keep their greedy fingers out of the pot so now it is almost broke.. but WE let that happen.
Medicaid and Medicare are a bust but it is better than what O has planned.
Look at every government office you've ever been in? Did you get premier care or any customer svc at all?
The first step should be build a big fence and then deport all the illegals not let the illegal aliens bk in and - it would save our government MORE than we are spending on all the wars in the past CENTURY in a very short time.
Then Medicaid and Medicare should be revamped. I think HMO's need to be examined and probably kicked out of the whole system. I believe it can be done but we would have to have honest Senators and Representatives that care about the American people and WHERE will we get them?
TAke a peak what is in store for us - just take the time to read this and you no doubt will be shocked - the link to orig is included.
