I am not happy about paying for my healthcare insurance and not getting immediate service either. However, that is just the way it is here.

We could lighten the burden by eliminating Medicare and refusing to provide emergency medical service to the uninsured.

The majority of Medicaid recipients and uninsured people are not driving new autos and living in nice suburban homes -- they are not in that predicament by choice. Many of them lead a shit life so not to extend that life unnecessarily would be right by that logic ...

There are a lot of ne'er-do-wells in society many do serve a useful function then a lot would be better off soylent green? When I say this I think back to some of the construction laborers that worked for me years ago -- bids were depressed by the market and there was no profit for benefits. I paid them $10 - $12 /hr 20 years ago and they were able to pay their rent and get drunk or stoned. Tough life but many of those guys are the uninsured. People who work but barely make it ... But I didn't have to push the wheelbarrow so they were useful members of society to me.
