Hey uninsured, are you gettin’ any Health Care ‘trickled down’ from rich, mythical, ‘benefactor’?
Unless you just show up at the ER & stick the rest of us w/the costs? You insured folks, are you sticking the rest of us with your Health Care costs when you exceed your illness, yearly, or lifetime caps for those ‘catastrophic’ illnesses? How about you folks that had an illness, lost your jobs, got another and then were denied coverage for preexisting illnesses – are you sticking us too? How about you folks that work for a company ‘to small’ to provide insurance – is your insurance ‘trickling down’ or are you sticking us also? How ;bout you folks that got a major illness and then got dropped – your health care expenses gettin’ trickled down or coming back to us? You folks that are sittin’ there thinking you have ‘good’ insurance, but it only covers a ’smidgen’ of medical expenses when you get sick – will the uncovered costs be ‘trickled down’ by some rich benefactor or are you gonna stick us with the bill? Small Businesses, are you failing to retain/attract good employees because you can’t provide insurance – you are costing us with reduced growth. Are you ‘entrepreneurs’ failing to start your businesses because you will lose your insurance – you are costing us also – stop it! Startup that new idea, build that business, create us jobs, make us competitive in the global market – stop waitng for the trickle – it will probably be something else besides the goodwill of some mythical, rich, benefactor.
And you folks that try to pay your uninsured portions of your medical costs – are we ending up with the bill anyway plus you take a trip to the bankruptcy courts – stickin’ us with still more expense? 50% of bankruptcies are a result of a health related event.
Health costs are 16.5% of our GDP & growing – the single largest segment in our economy. Stop blocking us from managing this segment so we can manage our deficit & debt.
Are our rich ‘benefactors’ trickling your health care down or are you sticking us with your costs?
Enough! So why don’t you sign up & pay your part with our upcoming Health Care program? Get off the side of the 4,000/hr. insurance company CEO’s and onto the side of the people & America.Why should American’s be the only people subject to this kind of extortion? Talk to me.
Would it really be that damaging to ‘just do the right thing’, even if it is to your beneifit? Couldn’t you republicans live with that?
But….but….but FOX NEWS TOLD ME IT WAS ALL COMMIE STUFF!
You see I don’t like commie stuff. I mean I don’t mind police, fire stations, roads, libraries, etc…but…UHC that will help other people? Didn’t you read in the Bible that Jesus charged people to cure them? Didn’t you read that you should always kill other people and greed is good?
Pfft, didn’t think so.
Oh, the best stat ever is that something around 60% of all bankruptcies are due to healthcare costs…of those 80% HAD INSURANCE.
These weren’t people without insurance. These are people who were told that they were cool if anything ever happened.
Hahahaha, but dem commies will destroy us if we don’t let the insurance companies fleece us the rich to pay less taxes.
I think I saw them standing next to the terminally ill person the Social Democrats "trot out" in absentia as an example of health insurance gone amuck but physically cannot be found either to act as their speaker for reform. Stand by to be accused of being "heartless" but don’t worry… I broke down in the remotest part of the Nevada desert last month and the only one who stopped to check on me was a guy with a "McCain/Palin" sticker in his window; I guess the Social Democrats were all too busy traveling off saving the rest of the world to worry about little ole me dying of thirst in the heat!
Look, nobody claims our current system is perfect. Everyone knows we need some reform. But here is your problem: somehow you are under the delusion that the ONLY possible solution in the entire universe is for the citizens to give up their freedom to the government. Why is that? There are millions of smart people in this country with countless great ideas to solve problems. Why do you dismiss them and just assume that the government has the one and only perfect answer?
Obama is not god. The Democrats are not god. The government is not god. They are not perfect and they don’t have the one and only perfect solution. Once you can get a grip on reality and grasp this basic fact, then maybe you will open your mind to new possibilities. There are ways to solve problems without the government shoving it down our throats at gun point.
