Yes it is a start but not a very big one. The problem is entitlement programs, namely Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.
Until you start making some serious cuts to these programs, you are just pushing around deck chairs.
Whoever has paid into it give them every cent owed up to date now and abolish it. I do not need the government gauging my pay check like nanny state only to get maybe 200 bucks towards a funeral and a few bucks a month. Get Obama the hell out of there so companies open up.I am sick to death of hearing about the fraud and abuse of medicaid/are.Look to the city of NOLA as an answer they have a hospital called charity hospital.Have one of these with a free clinic in it in every city/town.And do away with one of these programs.
ObamaCare is alive and kicking and it has death panels they don’t call it that but they are real I have seen it in two instances.I just heard a small company starting out trying to get health care say they are waiting as the costs went up 6% in just the last two weeks.Since ObamaCare no one can afford it.
