Since i have chronic illness that is almost certainly caused by current conventional medical care, i don’t trust them for anything but the most emergent of care.

I don’t deny that health care coverage is needed in this country. But what was being proposed was a huge blanket coverage for all people & that just doesn’t make sense. Encourage folks to go with catastrophic policies & do health savings accounts to cover the other expenses. Cover the folks without coverage, but trying to cover all the country just doesn’t fly. They will have to limit care severely & they won’t cover – or possibly even allow – many alternative health care options. That will leave folks with only what the gov’t allows unless they have $$$.

This country has amazing facilities for catastrophic illness, car accidents & emergency care. But the track record for handling chronic illness (most certainly caused by toxins & processed foods) is abysmal.

I know it is scary to think of losing all you have due to something emergent – & for that we need a plan in place. I hope, for your sake & for those who are not covered, that we can find a plan to fix that.

I agree that everyone has the right to affordable health care, but what was being promoted by our gov’t would limit health care & choices & bring us under the corporate “health care” system which is nothing more than promoting poor health (thru toxins & processed foods) for more profit.
