People Get The Government They Deserve

It sounds like you are quite pleased with the GOP plan to end Medicare when you say 'keep government out of insurance business'. Watch HHS nominee Rep Tom Price's confirmation hearing next week to learn all the details of his plan to end Medicare.

Dear Guest: I can see why you would draw such a conclusion as in my desire to keep my comments to a minimum I did not elaborate
.
First I was only speaking to the issue of what to do with Obamacare. In my view we should return to the platform we had before Obamacare was enacted with a provisio to grandfather certain changes such as the restriction on insurability. However for those new policies/people seeking private health insurance issued after the changes such rules would be applicable.
What then is remaining are those people who cannot afford insurance and/or have pre-existing conditioned. I would agree that a government sponsored solution is the answer. As to medicare people paid into it and I view it as insurance; albeit there is too much abuse. As to medicaid my main concern is the abuse as to eligibility usages need, etc. However there are certainly people with real needs because of disability etc
Prior to Baylor now(Blue Cross) people did not have such a thing as insurance. Baylor created it and it has flourished to where people actually believe it is a right . Unfortunately politicians eager for votes supported this rubbish and now here we are for better or worse. and because it is firmly in place all we can o his manage it wisely
Overall I was mainly speaking to the issue of the lawlessness of the Obama Administration ignoring the Constitution, Congress, etc. Ironically the manner in which the little dictator operated is his undoing. Ergo my comments that I hoped the Republicans do not apply the same tactics. The founders were very prescient and wise in their thinking when creating our Republic. Every president following George Washington has made attempts to break from these rules. People get the government they deserve we must resist these so called short cuts, etc to preserve this Republic
Personal Best Regards:
