AND what we have not discussed is that many, many medical doctors are closing up shop (their offices). My own MD has added homeopathic and also skin care to her office in the last few years...and I am her only "disability" paid patient! She keeps just because she is a real doctor and claims continuity of care for me (or I'd be out on the street with the insurance ***** doctors.)

BUT our health care will be higher even if the insurance wasn't...because there will be fewer doctors who will charge more, or have longer lines etc. and we'll be waiting like the rest of the world on socialized medicine. We won't be able to even obtain healthcare...

and I think that really might be one of the goals of this administration? Mr O told us in speeches how the elderly and how the disabled don't contribute to society...how we may need to go home and die...go home, take the little blue pill instead of the one you need, and stop being a burden... that the nation's assets need to be held for those 18- 35 (I think that's the age range he gave, but nevertheless young adults) who may need health care and can contribute to society.

So...if there is no real benefits for elderly, for disabled, for the mentally unwell...what will happen to them (us)? They will die, or eliminate themselves...of in the case of the latter, confined into institutions that deliver no real care but only beds and drugs to keep them quiet and not too big a burden on society (or, gasp, like in the old days, euthanized--which with the younger generation learning to not care about others, may very well pass laws to get rid of us, this huge burden on them.)

It's a big domino effect...proven out by history. How do we stand up and stop this nonsense? I have yet to find someone who truly will benefit ongoing from this "AHCA" of tax by the government for health "insurance".

I heard Bill O'Reilly last night (didn't plan on that) and he was so far off the mark regarding mental health care and coverage for preexisting conditions it was laughable. I thought he did better research.

Anyone with a preexisting condition pays hugely inflated premiums (or is charged, I doubt any of us can pay them.) So? Yeah, those with a preexisting condition will not have health care and will ....die? Go home and be quiet and leave the rest of the socialized nation alone?



I generally have hope (God loves me!) but in this situation, I do not, I do not have any hope that our politicians are truly going to resolve this in a beneficial position for the American citizen.
