What did our grandparents do when something happened to them? They leaned on each other. Governments come and go, families and friends are the ultimate safety net.
One: Let people buy health insurance over state lines. Hell, let Americans buy foreign insurance if they want. You want choices right?
Two: We as the citizenry don't have to let corporations keep their charters. If they're found to be price gouging, revoke them.
Three: Bust the trusts.
Four: Stop running the dollar into the ground. If our dollars were worth more, then you could buy more health insurance. Maybe doctors would come to see the sick again instead of vice versa. My doctor takes cold hard cash. That's all that I have.
It baffles me how many people place their faith in government. You want to talk about the quality of life. Governments are the leading cause of unnatural death throughout human history. Remember Iraq, Vietnam, Cash for Clunkers, Social Security? That's the government hard at work. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
If you need some money for your gal, kids, or whatever; send me a PM. I'll give you all that I can. When you get the government to take it from me without my consent, you're just a thief. That's what it boils down to IMO, no matter how many good intentions or how much self-justification is presented.
