I said earlier that throwing money at certain issues would be a waste of time. A Universal Healthcare plan does not solve world peace, it just gives those who need the help that they require exactly that.. help. There is still personal accountability and you will always have those that get over on the system, its inevitable, but the majority of those do not. Ask a Dr. yourself, many of those on medicaid currently do not even take advantage of the benefit.Originally Posted by Tracy
But I digress, the majority of the sentiment here is against a plan such as this one. We've discussed this issue at naseum in thread after thread with the same people saying the same thing. I'll keep doing what I do, and yes Mike if someone is in dire need I'll gladly give 10%, at the end of the day it is nothing more than currency and I am my brother's keeper.
Matter of fact my last paycheck was $1500, even though I just donated to the Salvation Army I'll take you up on that challenge Mike. I don't know what I could offer Tracy's brother but I know personally how underfunded Sickle Cell and those with it often cannot afford the treatment, I myself have a variation of Sickle Cell and carry the trait.. those in the know know why it is underfunded.. I'll leave it at that. $150 donation.
I'm done with this thread, yall do what you do I'll continue to do what I do.Thank you Robert Abrom
