We have a social health care system up here in the Peoples Republic. Is it working? Who the f*#k knows! But is was done without taxing the shit out of employers and citizens. It was done because Romney managed to hack enough wasteful spending to pay for it. There are those that disagree with those facts because, since the current asshole took over as Governor, he's blown the 2 billion surplus we had when Mitt left office.
I HAVE A JOB and HEALTH INSURANCE that I pay thousands of dollars annually for and a mortgage payment monthly for prescription co-pays, I would guess that after all is said and done, my out of pocket expenses just to HAVE the insurance and medications for my family is about 10 grand every year.
Am I happy about it? NO.....it used to be free! You young folks don't realize that once upon a time, employers GAVE you health insurance in order to retain GOOD employees. Then, once upon a time, the Feds decided to tax the crap out of employers and the cost started getting passed on to us.
Can I do anything about it? NO.....Kerry and Kennedy stopped responding to me some time back. Kennedy only cares about people that live here illegally and Kerry just does whatever Kennedy tells him too. The Governor is well, never mind! He's a dick....
