When the whiners get their way & we don't have Healthcare, they lose their Medicare, who's gonna care??

[Maggie Mae]

Whine,Whine, Hate, Hate

I won't care!!



I can't wait. Misery loves company, I think I'll bake some cookies, or maybe some special brownies for all the company!! Naw, I'll be as selfish as they are now...all those patriotic Americans who think they're special and so safe.
There's plenty of room. Just adjust. You'll be fine. When the insurance co have ripped off the whiners long enough, deinied enough for you to lose your insurance or cause a loved one to die, just adjust. When your quality of life sucks, it's ok. Just remember your own words and I'm sure those will console you.
When you lose your medicare because nothing was done to reform healthcare and medicare goes broke, don't worry. It's ok. You'll be considered undeserving just like people like me, so it's ok.
Oh, and don't expect sympathy from your buddies who will be able to afford to get care, cuz they won't care. They'll just throw your own words right back at you.

"Is that too much to ask?" To each according to their needs...

People should get what they need because they deserve it. This is such a change to the world.

"I'm not asking for much". Just a little piece of mind. An available doctor. A good doctor, I'm sure. The right to sue him to pieces if he messes up.

I think housing should be a right. A hot meal, too.

No, I don't have good care. And it could be taken away at a moment's notice. If I lost my job tomorrow, I would be without health insurance. That being said, i still don't think this is a good idea.

Let me give you a little background. Three years ago I was in a automobile accident that very nearly killed me, broken back, broken legs, broken head, several surgery's, out of work for 11 months. My insurance ran out 5 months into it. I've sold everything that I owned to be able to keep eating and pay medical bills. At 11 months things had got so desperate that I went back to work, even though I still had trouble walking. It took 4 more months before my insurance kicked back in.
Silly me, it never once occurred to me that I should have looked to the taxpayers to foot the bill.
I thought it was simply poor planing on my part. Now I know better.
Gotta go now, I have to be at work by 6am.

[Orianb]

Can't afford a $4 prescription for Lortab at Walmart?
If things are that bad I will foot that bill for you.
I give many times that every week to people in trouble, 4 more bucks isn't going to hurt.
Set up Paypal acct. and I will send you a few months worth.

How about $100.00 for 4 pills for migraine attacks. And if you think migraine attacks are minor, you haven't seen some of mine.
How about Boniva, that I used to be able to take, with insurance was $50 a month , most likely about double for that now w/out insurance.
How about paying for me to go see an endrocronologist for my thryoid? And all the tests I need for that? How about another bone scan to see if I'm have osteoparosis by now? Can I bill you for my gyn exam?
Will you pay for the special mix of hormone meds that when I had insurance was over $100 a month?
How about an mri that I need due to migraine attacks, to make sure I don't have any lesions? How about an ekg? I'm on meds to keep my pulse down....I have a very high pulse without it, but low blood pressure, so I need to get that checked out as well.
How about paying for hospital stay so that I can be put on an iv that will bring my migraine pain under control, which my dr at the clinic feels strongly that I need, sent a letter w/me to the er telling them that, they had talked to her prior to my going and wouldnt even look at it.
I most likely need an ultrasound on my right arm, or something to see what is causing the severe pain, especially at night, pain that makes me scream. If I need surgery, will you pay for that,too?
I don't drink, I have never smoked, my weight is now a battle, but I keep it under control, weighing at about 135. I don't eat junk food and my main beverage is filtered water. I don't snack.
I exercise. I make time for quiet time.
I am soon to hit 52. I was a responsible paying insured American until my insurance called my thyroid pre-existing, which wasn't. Causing me to lose many dr's that didn't even have anything to do with thryoid, leaving me with outstanding bills, even tho I paid my premiums all those months, even putting my gyn exam under thyroid.
Not all meds are $4. And to even get those meds, you need to see a dr. Many times even if you go to a clinic, they need to refer you to a specialist. Well, then, there you go. You're screwed because ya don't have hundreds, thousands of dollars to see that specialist and get the care you need.
BTW, your bad habits to alot of these ding dongs that don't want healthcare reform are just as bad as the druggie down the road

[Orianb]

Holy Moly!, I don't want to adopt you.

Great message jacquin. I just found the forums and I'm leaving now to find all of them that I can find that deals with Health Care.

[Wylde Abandyn]

I've said this over and over and over, Jacquin. I think everyone having good care is a great IDEA. I just don't BELIEVE that this particular plan will deliver on its promises. I don't BELIEVE that this will provide cheaper and better care. I think it will make things WORSE for everyone. How many different ways would you like me to restate the same thing?

[Wylde Abandyn]

This is about my opposition to the public option AND my general problem with Obama. For the first time in my life, I voted for a Republican candidate for President because I don't trust Obama at all. In my estimation, he represents a fringe element of society that I find repulsive. In exactly the same way that I found Bush repulsive for representing the fringe element on the other end of the political spectrum. I am a middle of the road sort of person. I don't like extremists.

[Maggie Mae]

I don't like going to the er and being mistreated...went there 2 days ago because I couldn't take the pain in my arm anymore.
Treated so badly, I had a major migraine attack that caused me to faint. At that point that, 3-4 nurses,one constantly in my face, I could hear, but not respond, yelling at me that they'd get the ammonia smelling salt if I didn't get up, as if I could or was fakint. Then those same nurse starting trying to pull me up,by my arms !
I remember yelling out in pain...there's more..but no one cares !
Don't tell me about extremists! I have taken pets to the vet and they were treated better. Gee, maybe if this doesn't go thru, I can go in and sign papers to be put to sleep like I had to for my dogs. I can only hope!

[Maggie Mae]

I added more, but it didn't save it.
I can only imagine if I'm treated this badly now, it won't get better. This is my one shot at getting healthcare. I won't get medicare, ever. So, I guess I'll have to look to Canada to move, kind of make a 5yrs plan.
I'll miss my family, but I won't miss the "Americans" who don't care as long as they think they're safe.
And extremists..how about those gun toting idiots outside Obama's townhall meeting? 12 guntoting morons, one strapped on not just a gun, but an AK47, don't hear any bitching about that.
Obama is soooo controlling that he lets these dumbasses out there! Gee, how I remember people getting in trouble for wearing negative tshirts about Bush.
Speaking of stupid, how about the dumb woman who went to the Barney Frank meeting asking him why he sided with the same socialist ideas Obama has as Hitler. Did this moron not now Barney Frank is Jewish? It was nice to see a democrat without blue balls stand up to this idiot!
This is all about money, all of it.
Here's to the future!
