But I am against the socialized medicine approach, and by socialized, I mean both components - absolving everyone from responsibility for their own health, and from the health related financial responsibilities.
Joe, I rarely would wish this on anyone but I hope you become severely sick and are unable to support yourself. You need a wake up call. Not all people get sick because they failed to take care of themselves. And not many who get severely sick are able to pay for their own medicine. Your apparent lack of experience prevents you from having any reasonable level of empathy.
PS: as far as keeping people healthy or curing them, unfortunately, with the sorry shape the medical profession is in, it is not even on their agenda. The agenda is hiding symptoms with drugs and capturing ever larger percentage of GDP in this scheme, while hopefully keeping people sick, because these sick voters will demand more and more dollars to pay their drug dealers.
Your cynicism is unbelievable. Again, I wish you to be sick in hopest of getting you to see the arrogance of your comments. You sound like someone from the Ayn Rand school of elitism. Sure there're people who claim to be sick who are not but I am sure they're the minority. And to believe that there are other people who intentionally try to keep others sick.......well, all I can say is that they must be Reps.
