ParticipantHere’s a novel idea, offer health insurance for catastrophic illness only…cancer, accidents, major surgery, etc. Everything else we pay for out of our own pockets. We would then be inticed to shop around for a good general doctor at a good price. General docs would not have to haggle with the insurance companies, bringing down the cost of the office. Make it OK for a nurse practitioner to diagnose things like kid’s ear infections, most of the doctor’s visits I had when my kids were little were ear infections…that would save a lot of money. If they have to refer you out of the general office, then insurance would be used.

ParticipantI totally agree…when they ask me to pay for someone else’s healthcare, I want to be able to monitor what they eat, drink and smoke. I’m not paying for someone else’s gluttony. I also want to make sure they spend at least 30 minutes a day excersizing, don’t drive motorcycles…the list goes on and on. Health care is not a right, it is a personal responsibility.

ParticipantIt is not government’s job to expand basic rights…read the constitution. Life, liberty and the PURSUIT of happiness…not the guarantee of happiness. Equal opportunity does not ensure equal outcome. Many times, the smart people do not succeed, whereas the people who are not as smart become great successes. I personally know a Orthopedic surgeon that got into drugs and lost his medical license…and yet, when I went to high school, there was a girl in school who was not very bright. No one thought she would make anything of herself…BUT! Just google Shari’s Berries and see where my friend Shari is today…one of the largest and best chocolate dipped strawberry companies in the world. It just takes good ideas and a bit of courage, and anyone can do it if they go after what they want. It is not always the smart folks who succeed.
