Do No Harm

It was a long hard fight but the Socialists came out ahead. The people of America are the losers. We have lost some more of our basic freedoms. The last hope will be any law suits that will prove the mandate unconstitutional. I believe similar suits were filed when Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid were passed and they were over ruled.

Word of the day: define

I got a few random emails from people who are so happy Health Care Reform passed because monies will go to Nursing Education? Hold on, what else has been tacked on to "Health Care" Reform? I keep wanting to respond with a question to the sender. Other than you and me, "who do you think is going to pay for it? My real question is, out of whose @$$ will we pull this money.

• Was HCR about health care itself, health insurance for it or funding for Nurse education?
• Was it about my right to have health Care or health insurance or for other stuff?
• Was it about taking away my right to choose my insurance or healthcare provider?
• Who are these people that stand to benefit from Health Care Reform?
• Who are the numb skulls that think their health care will be free?
• Who are the fools who think HCR will be implemented this afternoon?

Wait a minute, it is not a basic right to have health care insurance or health care for that matter.

We all get health care with or without health insurance. We may have to go to the Emergency Room to get it, but, as I pointed out in an earlier post, people who are treated in the emergency rooms are many times given better treatment because they are not at the mercy of the constraints of the insurance companies. But as I write this I think of the woman who was left to die on the floor of one emergency room.
