Health care as a service from another is indead a rationed service. Either by price, or by putting on a schedule relating to how much time may be alloted to each applicant.

Your own personal health is TOTALLY a personal responsibility. Observe known methods of hygiene, prepare and consume healthy foods, and arrange your personal affairs to reduce stress to tolerable levels, while getting sufficent exercise to remain fit, both in mind and body.

This is not so much treatment of ills, as the practice of AVOIDANCE of malign factors. There are times when the approach of peril or calamity cannot be avoided, and this is why the health services delivery systems exist. People can, and have, lived all through a series of personal injury and sickness, and never even sought the services of a doctor or other medical practitioner. “The doctor never made it to the house, and of consequence, his health was much improved.” Recovery from injury or illness is as much a process of will and fortitude, as it is of actual treatment, as every physician, were he honest, would attest to.

The problem with Obama and his ilk is that they have not grown beyond their own adolescence. Their conflict is with grownups who understand that our nation is the greatest in the world for some very specific reasons, free enterprise limited government, and strong religious faith chief among them.
