Cal Thomas...one of my favorite voices of sanity has weighed in on healthcare reform...or shall we call it "attack the billfold that pays the medical bills" and ignore the elephant in the middle of the room; that is, the medical care costs that DRIVE insurance premiums.
It is hard to weigh in on this one since I help people buy health insurance...even the companies I work with have been reluctant. How do you FORCE your way into a debate when the powers that be have decided that the billfold (insurance companies) are the problem vs the actual cost of the health care ? No matter what you say, you are going to be considered bias.
Imagine going to the store and finding out bread is now $10 a loaf so you go over to the bank and shoot all the tellers because they told you that you didn't have enough money in your account to buy bread unless you made a deposit.
Too bad we missed the chance to do REAL health care reform....something I think insurance companies have wanted for a long time!
Instead we got hoodwinked into paying for another huge, inefficient and costly government health program. That is what we should remember Pres. Obama and Sen. Peloski for.
So eat your oatmeal if you are over 40, looks like old people are not going to be on the top of the list to spend money on when they start figuring out how to pay for this....and in the meantime, don't make too much money and create jobs, evidently that is something we punish now?
Cal says it well, check out what else he points out below
