It's a real shame that many that do need help can't get it same as the welfare system.

The rad...AMEN!!!!!!! And Praise the Lord. SO true!<br /><br />The radio had some piece today that talked about how so many people are in need of food (as evaluated by the number of people going to food banks) and yet I see so many people using welfare / food stamps who have fancy cell phones. And how many of those people also have cable, and consider it a necessity? <br /><br />It's pathetic. And yet they want to raise my taxes. *sigh*CastoCreationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634631986152757174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694444418058171953.post-15978553485105405752010-02-02T13:20:36.729-05:002010-02-02T13:20:36.729-05:00At least Len has some sense.

Nothing quite like standing in line with a fistful of coupons, Joe's Generic everything, and a prayer I have enough money to pay for it all while watching the 20 year old with 3 kids (who are, of course, completely out of control) in front of me buy shrimp, lobster tails and primo steak (and let's not forget the ground beef for the dog) and then pay for it all with food stamps. And yes, that really happened and I am sure it will be counted (among other contributing factors) as part of my motivation to become positively <i>crotchety</i> in my dotage...Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17608579972739041880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694444418058171953.post-58023906876125175112010-02-02T04:44:28.787-05:002010-02-02T04:44:28.787-05:00He must work in my ER.

I get sick of nursing my sick child at home (thank God I am a nurse) while folks like this come to the ER for toothaches, sore throats, headaches...it's unreal. I fault the recipients but I fault health care facilities as well. At what point to you say HEY THIS IS NOT AN EMERGENCY...IF YOU WANT TO BE TREATED YOU'LL HAVE TO PAY IN C-A-S-H. <br /><br />This eye opener would cut down on abuse as well.

(His letter calls this into question, however.)<br /><br />He is already paying for this lady's health care. Who does he think is paying for Medicaid? It ain't the tooth fairy, "Doctor."<br /><br />Under our President's health care plan, at least this lady would be required to carry some form of health insurance. She would be required to pay for at least some of it. As things stand right now, she isn't paying for anything. When she's not feeling well, she just trots off to the emergency room and you and I and the good "Doctor" foot the bill.<br /><br />Doctor Starner Jones needs to pay a visit to the billing department of the hospital in which he supposedly works. He might be amazed at what he learns.Lenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15770448199092844067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694444418058171953.post-51455465373263149562010-02-01T15:25:34.731-05:002010-02-01T15:25:34.731-05:00Well said, Dr. Jones!!!Well said, Dr. Jones!!!Liz Mayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13960276167677132860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694444418058171953.post-15550380452375207162010-02-01T15:08:11.276-05:002010-02-01T15:08:11.276-05:00Couldn't agree with him more.Couldn't agree with him more.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12886333496997952719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694444418058171953.post-64798958123842459052010-02-01T14:36:39.698-05:002010-02-01T14:36:39.698-05:00This guy is right on the money.
