Health

Why aren't any of the candidates addressing people in this country who simply don't want health insurance? Many of us see it as a scam, an homage to Richard Nixon, and simply don't want it. We don't want it because we can't afford it, we can afford it, we don't want it. Sure, sometimes we get a flu, or a cold, but nothing serious. We just don't think it's worth the money. I realize that there are some people who aren't so lucky as to be so healthy, and my heart goes out to them. My heart, but not my purse. I don't mind pitching in for the random unexpected exotic disease, or a freak injury, it's the sense of entitlement that is unpalatable. Most people should buy their own asprin, if they want to get into a buying club for prescriptions, it's okay with me, just don't mandate it.

This crop of candidates all seem to be for Universal Health Care, that we're entitled to it. Queen Hillary, who failed to get it passed when her legal husband was president, when the Congress was Democratic, has a plan to include illegal aliens. Can I get a WTF? Elliot Spitzer goes through all the trouble to be a gentleman and drop the driver's licenses for illegals, (she was only asked that question once, she gave a one word answer, greatly impeding her ability to contradict herself) and she wants them to have free health care? Just because they broke American law for long enough to get rewarded?

Why does she prefer illegals to Americans?
