A Healthy Plan
I think it's obvious that our health care system needs to be overhauled. There are just too many people who cannot afford health insurance. Even for the insured, a major illness or disease could, financially speaking, wipe out entire families and force countless hard working Americans into bankruptcy.
However, rather than Congress trying to shove a 2,000 page health care bill down our throats, that in all probability not a damn one of them read, know what it's going to cost, or how to pay for it; wouldn't it be better if they took a few months to study some of the best health care programs throughout in the world that really work. Like the ones in Germany, Japan, and some of the other countries.
Then Congress could incorporate the best features from these programs and come up with a plan that would truly work, be cost effective, and in the best interest of all Americans. To me, this makes so much sense, that I'm certain many of our, to hell with my constituents what's in it for me, congressman would never consider this approach.
