If you talk to any reasonable person they would have to agree that health care has a problem that needs to be solved.  No one wants any one to be sick and not get the care they need.  But the politicians, both Democrat and Republican, are going about this all in the wrong way.  The first thing is… what do they know about health care?  Very few of them have any experience in the field of health care.  But being politicians they think they know what is best for all of us, even when most polls on the subject of health care show a majority of Americans are against the current legislative proposals before Congress.  Or is it they know what is best for their political career and they will pass any legislation that will get them re-elected?  Early indicators show that the 2010 elections will probably be the most contested and watched mid-term elections in years because citizens are not happy with what they are seeing in Washington D.C.  The current administration in power is making the health care debate much more complicated than it has to be.  If you want to write a true health care bill how you do it is by gathering the finest minds in the country that fairly represent all sides.  For instance, get the doctors involved who truly work with patients every day.  Get the accountants involved so you can understand what this really costs.  Get the attorneys involved to write simple language that any one can understand.  Plus whatever other group of people that would be beneficial to creating a workable and financially responsible health care bill.  But that’s not the way it’s going.  When this bill is written, the politicians voting on it will have no idea what’s in it and what the implications of it truly are.  We’ll be lucky if they have even read the bill in its entirety.  It’s unfortunate that common sense isn’t being used to write a groundbreaking, sound health care bill that will benefit the people.  Let your congressional representatives and senators know that health care reform is a great idea but you don’t want yourself and your children to be saddled with debt that can’t be paid back and rules and regulations that will limit, that will truly limit, your health care as you know it today and as you get older.  If you take 500 billion dollars out of Medicare that means that something has to be limited somewhere.  Even when you remove the waste you still have to ration health care to the senior citizens.  Oh, I just remembered, we are all getting older and before we know it we may be that senior citizen that doesn’t get the care needed.  If you want the United States to continue to have some of the very finest health care available in the world, then make your voice heard now before it’s too late.
