Health care?

Just some thoughts about that:

I see no reason for the younger generations to put much support behind health care reform at this time until millions of baby boomers that don’t want to die have died off. I suppose that they are not so stupid that they haven’t figured out that it’s them that will get stuck with the bill. Most of the noise I hear about better health care is coming from older folks. There’s plenty of health care here, if you can afford it, and if you can’t they’ll still patch you up. Just try to die in this country and they pack you to a hospital for treatment, they may take your estate but they’ll try to keep you alive and you can always start over again, or sit and whine that you lost everything.

Hell, I’ve started over a number of times without giving any of it much thought other than that I was off on my next interesting experience and I’ve always built things back up again. Even if you don’t own anything the do gooders, or whatever they are, will slap you in a hospital, if for no other reason to control your dying cuz they get upset about you jumping off of bridges. Hum, that was an interesting thought.

A hundred years ago folks didn’t have much of a health care system, they just assumed and accepted that they were going to die, now it seems no one wants to die. But die you will, I wonder why folks don’t want to die when they do so many things inviting death. Many of you seem to be so unhappy so much of the time that I wonder why you want to live anyway.

It’s interesting that I see folks decrying socialism and in the next breath saying we need a better national health care system, make up your minds, this country wasn’t built without socialism, it’s always been socialist, where do you think the highway system came from? And the electrical grid, the phone line grid, water systems. It is of course a fucked up kind of socialism involving government and capitalists. Capitalists being a major part of the problem because they are so greedy. Well, I can’t fix it, but I can go camping and the next week is just a camping trip while also meeting a blogging friend.

The invisible Money Power is working to control and enslave mankind. It financed Communism, Fascism, Marxism, Zionism, Socialism. All of these are directed to making the United
States a member of a World Government... - AMERICAN MERCURY MAGAZINE, December 1957, pg. 92.

Note that it says a member of a world government, not the worlds government.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons … but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their consciences. - CS Lewis

What ever happened to the right to just be left alone?

Have a great day, simply and peacefully, hugs…. Billy
