Oh we have some form of it, it's just very messed up. I was in the
clinic for a blood test today, and on the "patient rights and
responsibilities" sheet that was given to me, it stated that I have
the right to the best care regardless of race, gender, etc. etc., and
the ability to pay. And the big public hospital down the road in El
Paso is asking the feds for more money to cover all the free care they
provide the victims of the Juarez drug cartel wars going on now across
the border. Not saying by any means that our system is good, but if
you are in (or on!) our borders, you can get care.

I have always wondered, in the talk about X people not having health
care, health insurance, etc, etc., why I should be made to pay for
someone else's health care or drugs.
I don't have to pay for their food, or their homes, or their cell
phone bills, or their iPods, or their $150 sneakers. Why their health
care?

And, as long as I am ranting, why should I be upset about someone who
claims to be smart enough to make $6000 a month being stupid enough to
sign a mortgage that could grow to $3000 a month?

Why do you hate America so much?
