As a Christian we are told to take care of the poor. I see here in my town how DRs are avoiding taking older patients because of Medicare. Getting services for my mom I am in this issue first hand. As science defines newer gene traits tied to disease our insurance companies will only WRITE into all policies that they no longer cover these events. They are a business to make a profit and why should anything get in the way of making $$$. Do I like how this Health Bill was spawned? Hell NO! Do I think there is merit with it's intent? Yes I do. We are now at a slippery point to keep what is good because there is a lot of great assets in that law. Also some bad ones. How can any of us truly say what is good or bad in it by watching news or reading blogs as compared to reading the whole thing? I don't have that time, but I am sure there is a lot of protection in there that as we age will protect us as compared to expecting the Health Insurance Industry to do that for us. Now the point of illegals and health care. Those illegals do a lot of work under false identification. Taxes are collected for those false ID numbers. Our government takes that money before it is disbursed as cash/check so they are paying a little even though they do not file a return. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer CIMSgts 901.246-0159 cell _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
