OBAMACARE

Once again, my friends, Danielle and I are having to deal with the medical system, because her mom is having a cancer related episode, and had to be put in the hospital. 'Seems like we've been doing this forever, starting with her grandparents, and then my parents, and now her mom. It's exhausting, as those of you in your 40s and 50s are starting to find-out. What strikes me most about our health care system, such as it is, is just how incompetent, lazy, stupid and disorganized these people are, and how much we pay them to do such a bad job. Sure, there are well educated and skilled "experts", capable of amazing things, but once you're in the system, you quickly realize, it's not a "system" at all. Insurance providers can't communicate with each other. Doctors don't communicate with each other, or their staffs, or hospital staffs, or the patients, or the patients families. Medical staff, if they speak English, don't know anything, and can't make decisions, so most patients would probably be better served in a luxury hotel, where they could, at least, order and receive a hot meal. Nobody knows all the things a patient is being treated for, or whom their being treated by, or what medications they are taking, or those they shouldn't be taking, or anything else about the patient, and they can't, or won't, communicate with friends/family enough to FIND OUT anything important about the patient's situation. It's a nightmare! Obviously, an idiot could come up with better methods of taking care of our health, and saving scads of money by making it better, and faster, and less brutalizing, but the one thing I am absolutely sure of is, that that IDIOT shouldn't be the government, because those are idiots who have proven, over and over, for decades, that they are absolutely incapable of making any bad situation better, and/or doing it in a way that doesn't lead to absolute economic disaster. Then, we'd take a flawed system, and let people who have no incentive to do anything but put in their 20 years, doing the least amount possible, or who are interested in benefiting from the corruption that their authority naturally offers-up. So, to Mr. Obama, and his co-conspirators in Congress, I say, "Thanks, but no thanks!" You guys make our lives miserable enough as it is. We don't need you making an already bad situation worse, and robbing us of more of our money, and freedom, while doing it.
