Obamacare

There was a facebook status floating around that got me all riled up... Here it is:

No one should die because they can't afford health care and no one should go broke because they get sick. If you agree, please post this as your status for the rest of the day.

This is what I posted as my status:

No one will die because they can't afford health care. There is medicaid and welfare RIGHT NOW. With health insurance, no one will go broke because they get sick. I do NOT agree with Obamacare. When I get cancer, I want to be able to go to the d...octor and get medical attention immedietly. I don't want to be put on a waiting list and wait to die.

I don't understand all the complaining about people not getting healthcare because they can't afford it. This is bull crap. If you can't afford it, you can get on medicaid, welfare and tons of other programs ALREADY out there. There are some stupid people, i.e. my brother, who had health insurance, but then was too lazy to pay the measly $40 a month. He is now wishing he did pay that money he could afford because he has about $15,000+ in medical bills from his motorcycle accident.

There are some people that abuse the medicaid system, but it works. For example, Thomas's birth mom was eligable for medicaid, so Thomas was delivered by c-section with no cost to her or us. I thought we would end up having to pay, but since he was technically under the birth mother's name, he was covered. Lucky for us!

Obamacare is crap. There is a reason Canadians come to the US for our health care! My chances of getting cancer at some point in my life are very high. So, when that time comes, I want to be able to have my OWN health insurance and get medical attention. I don't want Obama to put me on a waiting list. Also, this new health care basically screws over children and elderly. Has anyone seen Obama's polls? Listen to Fox news. They give the truth. They are not as bias as all the other stations!!!!!!!!!!!!
