I will never forgive government run healthcare for the damage they did to my oldest daughter by denying needed surgery. From there it only got worse. Needless to say I am not a great fan of government healthcare.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-18610146511093391552018-07-25T17:50:41.683-07:002018-07-25T17:50:41.683-07:00For whatever reason, I cannot click on Anonymous @...For whatever reason, I cannot click on Anonymous @12:35’s link, but if it is as I imagine, it’s another epitaph on the greatest reasons to have nationalized healthcare: equality and mercy. You get neither. It’s a rationing system based in values, and obesity and smoking don’t fit. Sorry, asshole. Buh-bye. We’d offer you a quicker ticket to eternity if we believed in that sort of thing... but we don’t. Buh-bye. And we can’t say “Godspeed” or “you’re on your way to a better place” because we can’t prove God or whether you are going to a better place. Sorry. It’s policy. Brought to you by the people who think the “Emotional Quotient” is important. Yeah... not so much.

Veterans have put their lives on the line for this country and they get treated this way as a matter of course. Don't get sick or injured as a veteran in the United States.<br />Hopefully some of the changes will improve the VA, but I suspect that with the passage of time politicians will write off the "Cannon Fodder," as I have heard military people called, especially by the leftist and/or the democrat party.<br />Experience gained from 50 plus years of dealing with the military/government has taught me to be very skeptical of government healthcare because it always winds up forgetting who they are suppose to serve vice thinking of them as a cost better not expended. Much better to expend it for "Planned Parenthood." I have always wondered why it is called "Planned Parenthood?" If one has actually planned their parenthood they would not need their services.<br />If the government puts off care long enough the patient dies and problem solved. In the past it has been much like the "Roach Motel" except it is Veterans who walk in and not come out.<br />Thank GOD for the many people who actually care for the men and women who serve.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-57209665043587472372018-07-25T04:22:26.494-07:002018-07-25T04:22:26.494-07:00More:
