The nanny state is not our solution to better health. Our government already provides two medical coverage programs: Medicare (for senior citizens) and Medicaid (for low-income citizens). The president mentioned in his speech last week that those two programs are the greatest contributors to our skyrocketing deficit. So why not reform, improve and enhance those programs rather than create a third (or fourth or fifth) government medical bureaucracy called "universal health care"? What is needed in Washington is a truly bipartisan group that is allowed an ample amount of time to work on a compromise health care program that wouldn't raise taxes (for anyone), regulate personal medical choices or ration health care. Why wait for Washington? Go to http://PatientsUnitedNow.com to learn more about how you and your local community can reform health care and keep your options for doctors and medical care. And mostly, go to the Web site of Dr. Betsy McCaughey at http://www.DefendYourHealthCare.us. She is a health policy expert and former lieutenant governor of New York and actually has read the entire Senate bill on universal health care. She is disclosing many hidden details within it that are not being discussed with the American public. I'm on my way to work...check out these ideas and options....let me know what you think.

I have no idea where the logic comes from that says, we have two medical government plans that are going bankrupt so let us create a third. I am starting to get worn out about all this health insurance, every one has their own plan to fix the health care system. I got to be honest I do not have any issues with my current health insurance. I have a high deductible insurance for the big stuff, and a health care savings account that rolls over. I manage my health care myself, I do not need a community or a government to fix my problems.

I have no need for something else either...I prefer to make my own way. I know how you feel.
