Well, things seem to be looking up, or should I say, going up. We have insurance through my wifes employer. Insurance provided to me via my employer is total crap, fortunately, my wife's insurance is only crap lite.

Our co-pay has doubled and our deductible is now in excess of $5,000.00. So now we have insurance which will make it so we do not have to pay the fine/tax for not having insurance, but we can not afford to use our insurance. Is this what they call a catch 22.

It is truly sad that we have allowed our elected officials to totally destroy our lives and families. Think of the things that the average hard working middle class family will no longer be able to do because of these new costs. Simple things like a weekend camping trip or a family night out with a movie and a pizza.

There is no reason for this and something needs to be done before it is too late.

Reform the Government.,

How about we reform the Government and not the Greatest Health Care system in the world. We do not need to take control of one of the most personal aspects of our lives.

There are so many things that can improve our health care system that would not make us give up or freedoms and liberties.

1. No more primary care visits to the emergency room. How many times have people had to wait in the emergency room because someone with the sniffles was ahead of them. Why not put some triage nurses in the waiting room, and anyone with a non emergency visit can be sent away. No one will be turned away with a legitimate emergency.

2. Everybody pays a co-pay of $20.00. If you do not have the cash then it will be deducted from any public assistance you receive.

3. Absolutely NO non emergency health care for illegal aliens.

4. Anybody found coming to America for Free Health care should either be sent back to their country, or their home country should be billed.

This is just a few ideas and more to come.

No Public Option

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, said that the President will accept a Health care reform bill without the public option for insurance.

The problem with that statement is the fact that the entire bill requires the public option. This means the bill would have to be re-written. Perhaps this is just to shut the American people up.

If the bill takes the public option for insurance out, will the government still take control of what care we get?

Let us see.
