There was no "mess" with out healthcare system until politicians got involved, specifically Ted "The Swimmer" Kennedy. If nothing else, we know which GOP pols need to have a target put on their backs (the ones that are sticking around, at least).
All I know is that our health insurance is dependent upon keeping a job.
Not a big challenge. Except when it is. I worked at one company for 20 years. One company. Just one. About 18 years in, I had a medical issue. I got it taken care of, but I ended up losing the job eventually, because they were offshoring the entire operation.
At that point, I became ineligible for the same insurance. That was right around the time Obamacare became available.
I opposed Obama about everything. But he was absolutely right about covering everyone for healthcare.
For real. Everything else he did and said, I am opposed to, strongly. But I am very much for 100% healthcare for everyone.
Our healthcare has become a very, very expensive mess.
In my opinion...
“There was no “mess” with our healthcare system until politicians got involved,..”
Truth!! I began working in 1978 and healthcare was great up until after the turn of the century, where Id downgrade it to ‘good’.
Then obola gets in office and the news starts blasting how horrible the healthcare system is 24/7. I knew what they were up to then.
How anyone can think it is a good thing for the government to FINE you into buying a certain product whether you need it or not is beyond reason.
All theyve done is to REALLY screw it up and make it into the mess that they were claiming it was before they took it over.
