I believe we need to overhaul our healthcare system. But government control is a mistake. The other government run programs such as Social Security and Medicare are failing. We need limited government control.

THINK ABOUT THIS PEOPLE.... When it becomes LAW to have Health Care Insurance what will happen to those that cannot afford it and have children?
Forget the insurance, will they come and charge you with child neglect or child abuse? Will they take your kids?
THINK ABOUT THIS PEOPLE..... When healthcare becomes a law for us to have then its only common sense and a good business decision when employers no longer offer it as an incentive. It will save employers hundreds of millions while crippling the american family.

HOW MUCH MORE TIME WILL PASS BEFORE BAMA MAKES IT ILLEGAL TO USE THE TERM "American Family".

I just went to see my doctor today.....in Crestview, live about 30 minutes away. I have to see another doctor in DeFuniak, and another in Pensacola. All of which are an hour or more away. Why?......because I am on Medicaid. Such a curse word right now. I have four kids and 2 vehicles that can't tow the ride to and from the doctors visits. The government has screwed up the program so bad that local doctors aren't willing to accept 25% of what they normally charge. My Medicaid doctor asked why I didn't tell him on my first 2 visits about my other problems in my medical history. I told him he was in and then he was out. His response was,"well I only have about 5-10minutes per patient." What kind of physician does that? STATE PAID....straight from Medicaid. This is why they need to carefully consider what they are doing. Federal programs such as Medicaid don't let you choose the best provider. I wish I was still making good money and had my insurance to see my other physician who gave a rats butt about my well being. Now I am stuck with whatever the government gives me to try to ease my ailments.

correction we need no government control.. this government was of the people for the people and by the people. give it back to us and let us have a say on how this country is ran not by just voting some moron ito office because he says he can do the job and making promises he knows he will never keep in 4 yrs he will be in office niether in the next 4 if he is re-elected and thats a big if.. bottom line is our voice should count but it doesn't they throw out these little surveys to satisfy us and keep us off their backs mean while they don't read and we don't get heard as a people..see when they wrote that constitution they knew that the government had the potenial to have too much power and abuse it that's why it is written the way it is.. thats why there is a second amendment. so the people could defend themselves against such over powering governments such as this one..

any reform right now is good..at least get the ball rolling. anyone worried about government control is nuts. the government already controls utilities, etc- state governments even more.

Maybe you could have some time alone with them, or perhaps you simply need to remind them how much you love them. Don't be afraid to open up your heart to them, and to let them do the same to you.
