Most people reading this have no comprehension in what Barack Obama went through in his mother fighting with insurance companies and dying of cancer. Barry really doesn't either as he wasn't there long enough to do a thing, and if one notes his political career he hasn't done one thing for people in health care because the same misery and waiting for death is there.
The key in the Obama sob story is Stanley Ann Dunham HAD insurance, which means she had care to complain about in dying from her now son's benefactors.
I want to turn though to the people who don't have insurance, who don't have the 35 dollars to go to a doctor and don't have the 10 dollars to put into a gas tank, because their vehicle is sitting broken down in their driveway.
I want in this Christmas season of Rush Limbaugh, Noel Sheppard, Katie Couric and Barack Obama all sitting around snug and smug not giving a real piss in the wind care about what real people are going through as they champion "health care" for the fictional people they turn their noses up to in knowing what is best for them as all these people who can't afford anything have a real day in December.
First, most people are not sick over night. Most people have slowly degrading conditions that finally force them to a doctor maybe 30 years ago. The doctors of course can't find anything, tell them to take some tums, tylenol or benydryl as that office call is all that matters in building them their vacation home.
Second maybe 20 years ago, the person really gets sick in a spell and has to cut back on work, but still can't afford to see a doctor as it didn't help.
Five years down the road, they have a really bad spell and scrape and borrow some money to just see a doctor, who looks compassionate and tells them, "Well I think it is this, so take a antibiotic and make sure you call me if you don't get better".
The call is not free and the cipro costs a fortune taking the Christmas money these people got and although not better with the wrong diagnosis they feel like hell, plug along and try to ignore the symptoms.
Then about 10 years ago, as things just degrade, they live on will power alone. They find some relative to kind person who lets them live for rations and subsists, because remember Social Security takes money to draw on it and as these people have been working menial jobs and other nonsense, they haven't paid income taxes nor have worked enough quarters for Social Security.
So in going through all of that in bouts of puking almost daily for a year from pain to developing all the modern frankenfood poisons which bring on the auto immune diseases, chronic bleeding, pain and neurological problems, they wake up one day unable to get up without massive effort, but there are no emergency wards because they won't admit you.
So you try Social Security, they make you jump through hoops, but have the caveat of "You must have a doctor's report".
So you try the doctor and are told something along the lines of, "Yes, you are too long in not being a patient in we don't even have you on our computer records now. Yes, you don't have an income, but you can come in as we must see you for the report and charge you.
Yes, you have no income, but maybe you can talk about a payment plan with our clinic.
Yes, you have no income, but maybe we can schedule with another doctor.
Yes, there are no free clinics available, but maybe we can schedule you to see a doctor even if we can't find your files, have to have seen you in the past year and yes you have no income.
Is there anything else we can do for you?"
One supposes at this point in the Catch 22 of Obamacare, that as the sick person hearing this knows very well what the scenario will be if they do go in:
First there will be bills. Second there will be late payment bills. Third their will be collection agencies as you have no job and no way to pay for the office visit. Fourth the collection agency will file charges against you for being a dead beat. Fifth you will be dragged into court and your name published in the papers ruining your reputation and your credit.
You will though have a doctor's report to file with Social Security which will then deny your claim to any benefits or disability as you are not connected..........sick enough to get the basic care of life.
This blog usually tries to be generous in seeing all sides, but this could care less health system which is only going to get worse under Barack Obama and all generated by Teddy Kennedy leaves one with the conclusion that people like Barack Obama, Tim Johnson milking the system for millions to Teddy Kennedy with cancer of the brain, there is not enough recompense in hell for the suffering they have caused and are causing hundreds of thousands of people.
Teddy Kennedy's head could fall off from cancer and it would not be a moment for what he caused this medical system to become in people lingering in death, because it is all a Catch 22 system in you have to be in the system to get into the system.
There are going to be according to Social Security estimations 2.4 million people looking for disability benefits this year alone. The connected ones who can afford to be in the system will get them. The people who need them will be denied.
Tim Johnson gets a multi thousand dollar wheelchair to be ignored in in the Senate, while some woman in Tennessee struggles with a cane, falls down regular and lays there for hours until her son gets home from work and all that is equal and right in this world.
There is no compassion. There is only the system set up to reward the players in it and to cast off Tiny Tim while charging him for his crutch in Al Gore greenhouse gas wooden tree preservation fuel.
I don't know what rewards the above will receive in this life in experiencing what it is like to be the "claims denied" to being cast out of your own nation, because an elite has put up orders to rid America of the unfortunate but the day they are crying and begging for help after 20 years as they watch things around them degrade and all they can do is beg in prayers to God, then maybe it might be a down payment on "Yes you can make an office visit. Yes we know you have no money".
Matthew 25: 35-36; For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Trillion dollar budgets and poor and sick people who need it whither away on the vine.
And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
The only pleasing thing in this is it is all being recorded by God even if it all sucks.
