Town Hall Meetings and Health Care

Have the town hall meetings softened or hardened your opinions of health care?

 

I think it hasn't changed my opinion, but it should be a flag to "both" sides that there is a real thing on the plate, here. Those who are enraged at the meetings cannot be dismissed as ignorant loons - there is real, justifiable, anger on the part of those who feel they will be hurt by this, when they're hurting already. And if there is a real need for a better system than what's in place now - I personally think we need to find a better way, which includes some sort of national plan - there is also a need to be extremely careful in playing with people's lives and money. It isn't socialist loons on one side and delusional Tim McVeigh wannabees on the other.

 

I do know if those that are for health care change were light on how or how much health care could be a routine in the some people's lives that changing it would be difficult when it comes to expenses and time consumption.

 

Sorry, Eric, I'm not following you. Could you clarify?

I know for me, I consider our system broken. Insurance companies are virtually unimpeachable, and so are the doctors they hire to press their profit-making fraud. I speak from personal experience. I also find it fatuous for people saying "the only people who don't get healthcare are those who don't want it," when it is utterly out of the reach of many to obtain even rudimentary care. It begins there, for me.

 

I was referring to an issue of changing routines with changing Health Care.

 

There is a divide between those that can afford private health care and those that can't afford any health care. What about those that can afford regular public health care?

 

What is "regular public health care?"
What type of care does that mean?

 

your can take the "regular" out of that
