Yeah right .. .. .. if you think health care is expen$ive now .. . just
wait 'till it's "FREE"

I don't know who got this notion of universal health care started, but
(my opinion) you are entitled to the best health care you can afford ..
nothing in the constitution says you get the best for free .. .. ..

The thing is, people are getting health care now, and it IS being
paid for. So the resources are available and being used -- but
inefficiently, because the poor show up at emergency rooms rather
than doctors' offices. The "give 'em only what they can pay for"
strategy can only work if we're willing to let people who CAN'T
(or, unless coverage is mandatory, WON'T) pay die in the streets.



We already have a socialized medicine organization that pretty much
everyone approves of completely, even though the quality of care is mixed,
according to its customers. Let's see how many hundreds of messages it
takes for all the patriots to name the organization. This will be fun.


I'm in it and if anyone wants to trade my VA healthcare for what they have,
let's make a deal.

That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!
