the day we all opted out of medical insurance

the day that we all opted out of medical insurance

The United States is a highly civilized intelligent community of all types of people. And here we stand, fighting for health care for all persons. Everything is about the comfort zone of the rich and right.

What would happen if you woke up tomorrow and made a decision during this enrollment period to simply opt out? And then you told ten other friends, and they did the same. And then you did this for the next five years. You no longer purchased prescriptions, went into hospitals, or purchased any over-the-counter medicines. And you lived on the principles of the Old Testament. What would happen to their system if you decided that when life happens it happens and when death happens, it happens? That you were no longer worried or begging a professional to extend your dance card?

Imagine...

Yes, I realize that many of us live and breathe on every word that our doctor tells us regarding our health. If they show us a chart, some photos, and scare us enough we are willing to latch onto a prescription that may in fact be doing our entire body’s ecosystem an injustice.

What would happen if you woke up tomorrow and made the decision to take your life into your own hands, and live through the foods you eat and not the medications prescribed to you?

Yes, I realize that some of us ‘can’t’ function without the medications we live on. Imagine the day when the medication that you’ve been prescribed, in order to save your life falls into short supply. Imagine the day when the pharmacological association decides you are no longer worthy to accept this ‘gift’ and have chosen by lot or birth that someone else is far more superior to you, and thus you must get by any way you can.

What would happen? Would you live or would you die instantly? Would you give up, take your own life?

Politicians march to Washington armed with free health care provided to them by the public. They receive the best, and slamming your President’s health care bill simply implies that they do not believe you’re entitled to the same gift you grant them—free public health care. The health care system is dealing your comfort zone away daily, and what are you planning to do about it? It’s a service in high demand, and thus the cost has bankrupted families.

Imagine the day, when you are no longer a chess piece on their board...when the demand for medical care is low…
Tell me, who is in power now? Who controls the market now?

Imagine that…

Imagine the day when someone might just solicit to the public, free health care for a year, ten years, etc. just for enrolling and telling ten others to do the same...

Imagine the day when we all opted out of medical insurance...we could literally wager what we deem is fair and just.
