Your View: Massachusetts health care reform is at risk

Isn't it wonderful. I'm so glad that I can pay for health insurance for people who have never worked for it and will never work for it.

They're all disabled don't cha know. Their back hurts, their ass is sore, have headaches, runny noses and sever cases of whinitis, also known as the poor me syndrome. Plus getting up early is a violation of their civil rights.

Yet, if you've noticed that they all have cars, plenty of jewelery and tatoos.

Yes, friends, Bill Clinton said that he was going to end welfare as we knew it. Sure he did.

Drop Dead, Oregon’s Socialized Health System Tells Patients

July 31st, 2008 by Matthew Vadum

Oregon’s government health care system recently told two patients it would pay for their assisted suicides but not for treatment.

In the only U.S. state that allows assisted suicides, the Oregon Health Plan told cancer patients Barbara Wagner and Randy Stroup it would pay for physicians to help them kill themselves but would not pay for cancer treatment.

This is what socialized medicine is all about. Rationing is the inevitable consequence of government-run universal health care. If some bureaucrat using government-designed criteria decides you don’t deserve to live, you don’t.

This is the first year in 20 that i have worked that my health care coverage is at its worst. I don’t think that its fair that my husbands employer had to drop our good blue cross blue shield that we worked very hard to establish at its peak to be dwindled down to health new England which is the crappiest insurance that his employer has ever had to offer. its a shame that our governor Mr. Patrick has to stoop so low as to think that just because i work i need to pay for the unemployed. the system is being over run with fakers and over fat (caused by themselves not me) smokers and the like that claim on the disability and welfare systems that i think needed to be better looked at and managed before we were put out to dry just because we work its just not fair. what ever happened to family taking care of their own or survival of the fittest. did anybody ever think that a 30 year old could collect his /her social security early? because of certin disabilities and trust me an attic of drugs an alcohal shouldnt count as disability if we stopped giving them free money with out having to do anything to earn it what next and this is nothing new its just new that our govenor wants us the working to pay for it for him. sorry Mr. Pactric i dont owe you anything certanly not my health care. You did this without thinking of the consequences to your working poor. what about us by the way I am a school teacher and paraprofessional to special ed students and a certified ECE worker so don’t tell me its our responsibility to take care of these people because i see the worst of it every day i walk into the door of my job.And guess what its not my falt. Im only here to try to help and the system just makes it harder and harder every year to care for these people you our goverment aid this problem everyday with your policies that are empty and not thought through and you know it.sad, sad, sad shame.
