I want the absolute say as to when and how I will be tended to by others. Or take Medicare. This service was ostensibly designed for the likes of me. Money has been taken out of my taxes, and will continue to be taken from the taxes of my children and grandchildren, so that my medical care can be paid for as I get old and infirm. Not only have we been taxed overtly for this government boondoggle, we have been taxed covertly by the hidden costs of administration and the obscene distortion of the medical system which these g programs have encouraged.
Doctors are no longer guardians of our health .
And, you will find precious little discussion of health in doctor's publications, as well. Only endless talk about curative procedures and drugs. Does Medicare cover my gym costs. Don't get me wrong. I am not opposed to helping the less fortunate members of our society.
