As a concerned taxpayer, and one of Americas poverty stricken individuals I resent the idea that our healthcare system is so great.

Our system allows those “international” doctors to practice, learn and teach in our system. How noble of them. The whole time we are subjected to the skyrocketing cost of a doctor visit. Let alone the cost of prescription drugs. .

I contend that it is all a scam, and the taxpayer is the bearer of the burden already. So why not change the system? It is impossible to go through your life without going to the doctor. The cost to somebody like me is out of the question. At 150.00 for an office visit, I can’t see a doctor. So I go to the ER where I’m subject to more bills then anyone can imagine. I make just a little to much for the “public” healthcare offered by our government, but like so many others I can’t afford my own insurance. Unless the company that I work for offers it, coverage is out of the question.

Change the way that Washington is running things. It’s about time that the taxpayer start exercising the power of the vote to implement the change that is necessary. The only thing getting healthy in this country are the bank accounts of these politicians who refuse to work harder for change in the system. The average taxpayer is the loser here folks. I say that a system where a small business can afford to cover their employees should be made available to the small business owner, and affordable health care be made available to those who make to much for Medicaid, and not enough to buy insurance as an individual.

The government gives away our tax dollars with reckless disregard to the end result of the outcome of these “investments” . I say that in order to get a grant to learn to practice medicine in this country you should have to give back to the taxpayers who funded you. If you come to this country to practice, you should be required to perform your services at a discounted rate for the taxpayers who will still be funding you.

Im just glad that there are places to go to get more informed these days, I found one of particular interest:
