There is a specific reason why I question “health care”, because it is in reality “sick care” or caring for the sick.
If it were truly “health care”, this
presupposes that we are already in a healthy state and measures are taken to
keep it that way. This would be the more
responsible way for government to provide “health
care”, as a matter of prevention, instead of caring for the sick, for that is a doctor's job. Whenever a government gets involved in people’s
lives, the people are reduced to being merely “numbers” and the “Social
Security Number” is decisive proof of this.
To wit: “If the people let
government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their
bodies will soon be in as sorry state as are the souls of those who live under
tyranny.” Thomas Jefferson.
Again to wit: “Choice in the
family is diminished as the power of government increases. As responsibility is relinquished and rights
become privileges, duties of society are dictated by rulers instead of
God-given conscience. Love is neglected
and virtue vanquished.” Brother Gregory
It is the “business” of “Big Pharma” to so-called “fix a
problem”, when we get sick. However, it
is extremely rare when “Big Pharma” has
been able to cure anything and remains in business to keep us coming back for
more. One particular systemic problem
remains however with any drug… and that is a drug has a general tendency to
lose effectiveness after a time, for which promulgates the need for either a
change in the administration of that particular drug, or provide a new and
improved version and again after a time will need to enter the same cycle. A very long time ago a college professor
stated: “It would be worse for the
fishes, but better for human beings, if they take all the drugs and throw them
into the sea.”
Although this latest version of the “American Healthcare Act” has jumped the hurtle in the House of
Representatives; it still must go through the Senate, for which will make
changes and then remanded back to the House for approval once again. If this bill does not make it through the
House, then a committee will be formed to come up with a general consensus, in
order to satisfy all parties involved and then go to the President’s desk. We can be sure that it may take several weeks
if not months before it becomes law, if it does not die in either the House or
the Senate. The fact that this bill just
barely squeaked by in the House, is not very comforting. In my personal opinion, from a medical
standpoint; this bill is in “serious condition”.

I recognize those of opposing views, but be warned; any statements made must be backed up with facts and not from social/political venues. It is an absolute fact that the social/political climate is specifically designed to place riffs where none ever existed before; such as Feminism, Homosexuality and Racism, which were all promulgated by the "Powers That Be" to uphold their creed of "order out of chaos", which will eventually end this civilization. Slavery is repugnant to any civilization even if it is benevolent.
