My Thoughts on Health Care.

Harry, let me be the first to congratulate you on this blog. Excellent!

Hello Steve,

Well, thank you Steve.

So you think the Federal Government allows the insurance companies to freely go into the reservoir of money the taxpayers gave to the IRS and take what they want? The insurance companies are as powerful as the tobacco companies are. Tobacco offers no nutritional benefits to the citizens yet the FDA cannot shut them down. White America’s government is not perfect. There is still a lot of room at the top. I tell Black Americans all the time that when our sovereignty is secure we must establish a better government for all the Blacks and immigrants than White America presently have. Does that make any good sense to you?

Anyway, the public option was the citizen’s advantage against the insurance companies.

Steve, why I am so concerned is that Black Americans gets the worst end of it. In other words, what ever White America decides, Black Americans must go along with it. However, when Black Americans become sovereign we will bear the consequences of our bad decisions or reap the benefits of our wise decision.

The public option was really the protection of the poor. A society is only as good as how well they take here of the poor.

So, when a White person tells me that they are against the sovereignty of Black Americans they are really saying that we really do not want to let you go. In addition, that White person is saying we do not want to take the chance that Blacks may do better for themselves. In other words, Whites know that the head of the coin is designed to keep Blacks subjugated, which is the status quo and Whites do not want to take the chance on the tail side of the coin, which is Black America’s sovereignty. Consequentially, God has already decided and that is why I am Black America’s first genuine prophet. Everything that I say is going to happen. Am I making any sense with you?

Okay.

Harry, it is interesting to me how our government is always telling us what is a right and what is a privilege. I mention this because we are now being told that health care is a right, not a privilege. But to take a simple example, as long as I can remember, and in every state I've lived in, the government has maintained that driving a car is a privilege, not a right. How is it that something so basic to everyday life, most importantly, something so necessary to earning a living, is not acknowledged as a right. Can we indeed trust government to know the difference between a right and a privilege?

Hello Steve,

I believe that the reason driving is a privilege is because the city provides its citizens with public transportation.

I do not drive anymore and I still get around by the use of transportation for the public and senior citizens. However, if it was compared and contrasted to health care and I have a precondition or could not afford insurance my option would be death since the insurance companies would not give me coverage.

Therefore, I think that driving is a privilege, but health care is a necessity.

Tell me what you think.

BEHOLD! HOW GOOD AND HOW PLEASANT IT IS FOR BRETHREN TO DWELL TOGETHER IN UNITY!!!! PSALM 133
Beautifully reasoned--and thanks to both of you!!!
PEACE!

Hello Mr. Kigel,

I believe that the Republicans have the argument wrong that the government will come between the doctors and patients. It has always been the insurance companies between the doctors and patients based on profit, am I right.

Tell me what you think.

Harry, without a public option, this reform bill makes no sense at all, and the President has promised to veto it. If we do get the public option, the the government will be an insurer, and in effect the Republicans will be right. Will it be a case of "out of the frying pan and into the fire"?

Hello Steve,

Firstly, it is my understanding that the President is okay with no public option, if that what it will take to get the bill to his desk.

Secondly, the concept of insurer is to be an entrepreneur. The government is not an entrepreneur. The government is a body duly elected by the people and for the people to protect and defend the people domestic and foreign.

Therefore, healthcare is necessary of the federal government to provide to keep its citizens healthy and alive as part of its service to protect the people from domestic enemies and I do not mean homegrown terrorists. I mean insurance companies and tobacco companies. The tobacco companies ruins the health of the people and the insurance companies gladly offers coverage of the healthy citizens and deny those who are not so healthy for the sake of profit, am I right.

So, it is not the case of out of the frying pan and into the fire.

Tell me what you think.

Dear Harry:

I totally agree!!!

Hello Mr. Kigel,

I believe that White America’s government could be much better than it is. It is deliberately and with intent not to be better and moral reasons are always why governments and civilization topples.

The people are the moral conscience of the government or the canary in the tunnel if you will. In other words, the greater percentage of Americans wants the public option for good and sensible reasons. However, those senators that have received an exorbitant amount of dollars from the insurance lobbyists voted to remove the public option from the bill, so the public option has been replaced with monetary greed as toxic gas in the tunnel and eventually the canary is going to die, am I right. Consequentially, trouble is down the road for this country.

The bankers who are truly entrepreneurs brought the economy of this country on the brink of collapse that, again the canary in the tunnel (the taxpayers) save the country’s economy by bailing out these immoral and greedy set of people, am I right. Sooner or later White America is going to meet its fate should these immoral wrongs continue to be perpetrated on the people and the federal government stands by and does nothing or little too late.

What say you?

Hello Clark,

You are 110% correct. Without a public option, there has been no health care reform.

My overall concern is that Black Americans who already has the worst health care, nothing has changed for Black Americans.

Therefore, it is hard for me to understand why so many of you all would be against desiring to be a sovereign people on a portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders.

Clark, let me ask you this question. Do you think America’s stock will drop if the Wall Street traders knew that this coming Monday Black Americans would become a sovereign people on a portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders?

What say you?

Brother Steve, I join you in the congrads. Then I would like to try and get a word in about what maybe on the flip side of this argument/blaming "the government" on the matter of health care reform...
# flip side:

1. Everyone who do /do not vote for any rhyme or reason is personally responsile for their local, state and Federal person representing their state in Congress...

2. we are given a Constitution that "we" can demand be enforced or not enforced in order to protect our civil, legal rights!!!!!

3. Voting your conscious makes you the official care taker of the rights and privilages and freedoms that your enjoy/do not enjoy/ complain,etc. about.

4. Therefore, if you are not satisfied with the way your "GOVERNMENT IS WORKING, NOT WORKING then please to accept that when you point that finger of blame, you have 3 fingers pointing at you!!!!!!(smile)

YES WE CAN...start to accept that our president is a president of a F-r-e-e country therefore he is not a dictator or not...PEACE...

And, Clark may I add this to the subject of our 'government' working for our benefits to continue to allow the public being DUMBED more effective with each election....

If you smoke or drink alcohol (and even if you don't) please take note of those seals on these products . These seals say that the only thing that makes your not being subjective to an arrest for violating your local, state and Federal laws is only because the government has put their blessings(with this seal of approval of sales) on it when you pay taxes on these products that are almost guaranteed to kill or do harm to you or to someone else with this purchase(smile)

ONLY IN AMERICA?!? no, as it happens in every government...YES WE CAN...YES WE ARE...

Oh, and as to the government and driving...I will use my self to try and answer this...The law says that in order to drive one must have a LEGAL liscense to drive...this liscense is proof that you have learned enough about being able to drive so that it is safe for you and others to be driving or riding as a passanger in that vehicle...I can drive, but not good enough to be on a major highway and therefore, I can not pass a driving test which means I do not now have a liscense to drive,and never have had one... and because of the person I am who is not proned to using excuses to drive without one....does this help.(smile)
