A Chat with Mark Twain

Health plans

Hillary Clinton has been advocating changing our individual health insurance policies to a universal health plan. We all know that only 40 million of our citizens do not have health insurance coverage. Right? That means that more than 300 million do have a plan. It also suggests that the 300 million are satisfied with their insurance and are able to pay for it. We also know that indigents (who would include the 40 million not covered) have avenues to take for medical care. They are not turned away from  most hospital emegency rooms when in need, and can turn to welfare for help. Rather than change our whole system, why not give the uninsured extra help by compelling each to walk a half hour a day as part of a preventative measure and send them packets of  oatmeal and bags of walnuts to insure their health. Wouldn’t that be less expensive to the taxpayer?

  1. What’s Hillary trying to prove – her daughter says that these are chronic uninsured – guess that it’s a disease!!!! Hope what ever she does, that it is better than the last health plan she master minded. Keep up the good work!!

  2. I am all for America trying to help all and get all of us insured. My mother went for years without any insurance due to the cost, even thou she worked (and had a degee – just did not make enough money).
