I just watched some dumb ass republican go off about how health care reform will destroy the USA health care system.
Really?
He said.........no, I'll just post it so you can hear for yourself!
First of all: I just have to say, what kind of a sick selfish ass really wants to keep people from getting health care. Americans have no clue how different and fair health care can be. They don't, because they are selfish and IGNORANT! If they would care to even look at other countries they'd learn a whole lot. Yes, you might have to stand in line.....but then the ones who need help the most will get it first as well. It's called sacrifice! Ever heard of it?
PLUS, if you're as rich as a lot of these selfish people are, they're rich enough to buy their own private health care anyway and they can go to their own "special" doctors. If doctors get paid a normal good wadge then maybe all the jerks who don't even care about people but who just go into it for the money would get weeded out.
The thing that bothers me the VERY most, and this is just because I'm an ex mormon, is that so many LDS in this region (Idaho, Utah..etc) are SOOOOO against a reformed health care. God forbid I have to pay more taxes so the poor mexican's kid next door gets to go to the doctor when they need to.
REALLY? WTF?
Have I forgotten everything about the church, I think not. It was the church that taught about the law of consecration was it not. And the law of consecration was not just paying a little more in taxes, it was giving EVERYTHING you had and then getting only what you need.
AKA -communism.
This health care reform is not even close, but still the same idea to an extent, giving a little and getting help when you really need it. And mostley, FOR THE PEOPLE WHO CAN'T AFFORD IT. How can a person see something bad with giving, to help someone else. Yes yes, I realize that a lot of republicans are upset because there are soooo many illegals. Yes there are. SO WHAT? A person is a person, is a person, is a person. Just because they happened to be born in bad conditions and have taken themselves out if it as good as they can does not mean that they should suffer because they are poor. Everyone feels pain, it doesn't hurt more or less depending on what color of skin you have or where you were born. PEOPLE are important.
I STRONGLY believe that health care should be available for EVERYONE. Period, and if I can pay a little more taxes then I'd LOVE to.
The myth that health care gets worse when it's not private is blown WAY out of proportion, look it up for yourself!

If you don't have the pacience to read the whole thing, go to page three, where she kind of summarizes and makes some good points.

The law of consecration and communism are NOT the same thing. The law of consecrations says to give out of your own free will, OUT OF LOVE. Communism won't even give you the chance to choose to help someone else and from that develop love, because the choice is not yours to make.
Okay first I have to say that I love when people post anonymous comments - if you are going to stand up for what you believe, at least put your name up behind it! :D
Second, I TOTALLY agree with you. There is Communism and communism with a lower-case c. The lower case is what the church is. Taking everyones share and divying it out based on need. Its an ideal society but the human element makes it imperfect. I TOTALLY agree with you.
And coming from someone who doesn't have health insurance, and can't afford it, I am anxious to see where the reform goes. We cannot afford the 300 price tag a month for basic quality care -and we have no debt. So what are we supposed to do????
