The health care debacle

The health care debacle is very easy to fix, I think. Then again I am only an individual that has been caught up in the mass of healthcare. At one time in my life I did without healthcare, I couldn’t afford it.

The Politicians first have to stop tripping over their feet and look right in front of their eyes. The solution to the problem is right is in front of their faces, it already existed.

What I am talking about it Medicare and Medicaid for everyone which is not free. We cannot afford to just give away healthcare I am sorry to say. We don’t have the money! Want most people don’t realize is the people who have Medicare and Medicaid have to pay monthly for that coverage and some people pay close to a hundred dollars a month out of their check.
If the government would charges every one of 25-50 dollars a month per person for health care we should be able to get the same coverage as our politician. If you add all the money up it would be more than enough to cover every citizens of this country. Children up to 18 are already are being paid for. The only people in my plan that would be covered would be illegal aliens.
Money for this program would be taken out automatically out of your pay,( If you chose this program), Social security, unemployment or welfare .

It would not cover anyone making over $150,000 combined household income, after deductions for children, or $65.000 for single. To get join this program you must provide proof that you are on a program mentioned above, work and file taxes, American citizen or an alien who has applied for green card. No illegal aliens would be covered.

Another part of this plan would control the pharmaceutical industry. Put controls on them that they could not charge us any more then they charge other countries for their drugs. A cap on profits. With the power of having the USA a client we should get a good wholesale rate.

Last but not least, to get the cost of medical care down, we must control the lawyers. We must put caps on frivolous lawsuits against doctors and hospitals. Trust me I do not have any love for doctors or hospitals. It was a hospital, nurses and doctors neglect that killed my wife in 2007 and I gone to three lawyers to see if they could help me But I still feel that the should be a law to control them.

With all I have laid out above it could very well bring down the cost of health care and cover everyone.


That's how simple it is to solve this problem but politics and politicians always get in the way, because they do not have our interest at hart but how to win the next election and gain control.
Let us all rise up and let them know that we have a common sense plan. Write and call your reprehensive, let them know that you will not just stand by while they screw up healthcare. Tell them to write a bill that we can read and vote on, not them!!!!



Let me know if you agree or do you have a better plan.
