The Rant

I can not imagine what it would be like to be sick and not be able to go to the doctor because I couldn't pay for it. Like school, and shelter, health care is one of the most basic of necessities. Why should it be hoarded for only those who can afford it? Do to corruption millions are doing without health care and medicine while a handful of CEO's are getting million dollar salaries. I can not see how the health care system in this country has gotten so out of hand, we are continuously falling down the charts of health care efficiency, people are dying, and for what, the sake of business? As of right now the U.S. is the only industrialized nation without a universal health care plan, how is this so, we are usually the innovator in everything and yet we have been swept in the dust for an issue of utmost importance. A universal health care plan would allow the government to regulate health care services which would take out most of the greed and corruption in a private health insurance based system. It would give everyone affordable health care based on income, that was efficient and most importantly equal. Your state of health, age, or economic standings should not effect the type of medical care you receive. Our health care system must return to it basic principles, that of caring and providing for all peoples without discrimination of any kind.
