Our healthcare system has issues. I understand that. I admit that. The government is not the answer to the problem. I also understand that. There are some good solutions out there that involve modernizing our system, increasing competition in health insurance, health savings accounts, and a variety of new ideas that once you hear them make complete sense.
The president has said repeatedly in the past that if he could do what he wanted we would have a single payer nationalized healthcare system. Democratic law makers are on video saying that what they are doing now is the first step toward a single payer system and the goal is to drive private insurance companies out of business.
So what are they trying to get us into?
Read some stories of people living under this ‘dream’ of nationalized healthcare.
Having government control your healthcare is a game changer. It is a fundamental change in the relationship between the citizens and their government.
This brings dependency to a whole new level.
There are solutions.
This is not the one we want.

One more reason that there should be compulsory military service. Anyone who has been in the military knows what national health care is like. And most under it, I believe, reject the system.
Not a VA fan, Bill?
As far as the compulsory service goes, I have to say I like the idea but I can't comment too much since I didn't serve.
I have no axes to grind about the VA. Presently, I rely on civilian medical care supported through the Military retirement system and have no VA eligibility. My comments were based upon the quality and type of medical care provided to active duty Military personnel and their families. I was fortunate during my military service days in that I seldom had to get medical attention. But, Gale and the kids did suffer some pretty shoddy service. I also saw examples of inefficiency, laziness, and incompetence among military medical staff members.
