Healthcare for
everyone living in the United States, has been, and will be a topic for
discussion lasting the next 10 years. Will it happen, will it succeed and are
we as a nation better off for having access to doctors and hospitals?
The ethical,
‘feel good’ answer is everyone should be able to get quality care regardless of
income level. However, the cost for this future addition to the Standard of Living
could take other things away from the general population. The money has to come
from somewhere and contrary to government thinking, money cannot just be printed
in abundance. So is the money taken from the schools? From Social Security?
Unemployment Fund? Military and Defense? Will gas and oil be taxed at a higher
rate so we pay more at the pump?
Taxing the rich
to pay for the poor is not the answer. Taxes are seen as punishments and if you
punish someone for doing well they are less likely to continue the behavior; at
least continue the behavior in a lawful way. Something has to change and with the
National Debt growing to unfathomable levels the chance of paying it off while
incurring another major expense is slim to none.
Pray for the
strength and wisdom for our government leaders. Pray they are able to make the
right decisions for our country as a whole. However, regardless of their
decisions, make sure you make your voice heard. Do not stand by and let things
happen to you and your country you do not approve. Get out and get educated and
then vote! Information is available but make sure you are talking to an expert
to get all the facts.
