Mmmm...

Another year of paying through your nose for inefficient health care.

I'm all for not forestalling death when youre time is your time.
But I'm totally not for paying for health care that might or might not help you or give you access to the care you need.

It's also morally reprehensible for a system to make money out of a persons innate desire to fight for life.

Medical fees are the highest cause of personal bankruptcy in the US.

You know...its also a short term thinking, this profit driven medical care.
If people cant afford care or access to health education they get unhealthy.
A nation is only as healthy as its citizens.

Details. Don't allow the truth to be scattered among them. The larger motive has to be a great and abiding love for humanity above all else. All nations have been weighed in that balance and found wanting.
