Quote from Mav88:
define fix.
to my satisfaction, absolutely, to liberals satisfaction- no way
I am a grown up you see, so I understand health care is a luxury and is not free. I understand that life is not fair as I define it, so i do not expect the very same health care as say a Warren Buffett. I accept that I am mortal and I will die, that I should not expect others to pay to extend my life way past my natural age of death.
We have too many people who have bought into liberal ideas, which are pretty much the contrary to what I just stated. Can such a system be created in the USA without severe consequences? No it cannot.
I don't want to read too much into what, perhaps, I may "think" you are saying.
This happens to me and others all too often here.
But, it might appear that you and I have different ideas in the area of healthcare.
If you noticed, earlier, I said that I believe in
true national healthcare.
I believe that our system is in chaos in the USA.
Much as I used to be against such ideology, I now believe that we have got to do something that is run by the government.
I know that sounds "liberal" to a lot, but I can no longer trust the system that we have.
When I think of the costs and the way the system is run, I start to think about our massive government waste.
Then, I start thinking about how our spending could be controlled such that money could be better spent on healthcare.
I'm actually a
real conservative. (Aren't too many of those around today.)
I don't think that being a true conservative means going along with whatever the rich say is the correct thing to do.
You have to try to see what the motive of people are.
Let me throw this out and see what you think...
We do away with the veterans' system, medicare, and medicaid.
We replace it with, (let's call it) USA Care.
It not knocking our
great vets, our old people, or our poor.
I'm just trying to think in terms of some kind of consolidation for the betterment of the system and the country.
So, bottom line: Cut spending in certain areas, replace the current for-profit system with a government run system because it seems apparent to me that we can't trust those who are now running the system.
Can any of this work for you?
