all kidding set aside

which is great because million Americans have no health insurances.


You are a good respectful poster. So I will answer my belief.
A national health care system would be a disaster for this
country. I have talked personally with people who come
from other countries with these types of systems. There
is never enough money to cover the cost of such a system
no matter how much the people are taxed. They say that
the waiting line for emergency services and basic services
can be from months to even years. They have told me that
members of their families have died from waiting for appointments.
They have said that what we hear on the news about how
good the system is, is not true. I have talked to people from
Romania, Germany, many places in Europe. They all want
to come here for treatment.

If people get free health care, it will not be long befor that
health care will be rationed. I have a family of 8. I do not
have health care insurance. Oregon has an emergency plan
for children and if I need it I will use it. However, I have
chosen instead to care for my own family, to study basic
emergency care, (many free classes on cpr, etc) nutrition,
herbal remedies and natural alternatives. If they need a
check up I save up the money for it. I recently had to take
my 7 year old to the emergency room. The bill was $300. They
will take $50 per month payments. That is way better than me
paying over $400 per month for insurance that doesn't cover
very much. Our country already has systems in place to help
people in emergency situations. If I didn't have free emergency
help for my husband and myself because we are veterans then
I would pay a small premium for catastrophic health insurance.
There are always other methods to take care of oneself and ones
family. We should not burden our already overtaxed working class
with more taxes to cover health care. Our government has already
proven it can not be trusted to manage these programs. Look
at social security.

Besides all that. Hillary can not be trusted. If you really want to
know what she is like read a book by Gary Aldrich called Unlimited
Access. It will make your hair stand on end. She would make a
horrible President and she has no concern for people who are
not in positions of power.

In addition I went to one of her speeches here because my sister-in-law
was one of the interpreters for the Deaf at that function. She said that
members of Hillarys team practically had to drag her over to thank the
interpreters, and that Hillary was angry about it. (and my sisinlaw likes
Hillary)

Hillary is shrewed, intelligent and power hungry. The sad part is I am
living in a time when I will be allowed to vote for a female president and
the choice I have is her. I will not be part of placing a person who is
dishonest, tyrancal, and power hungryin office. No matter what her politics are.
