HealthCare-Family Experience
It seems that, when one brings up the topic of health care, some people take offense to it and feel uncomfortable to talk about. There are cases when others bragg about it but my family is the opposite. Instead of asking them i asked a adult friend some questions. There were cases when she waited 7 to 8 hours in the emergency room for her illness. In the movie sicko, citizens living in canada waited less than an hour. I asked an additional; how pack was it? her reply was not that many. She didn't understand why they moved so slow and continuously do. That made me curious because why would it take long to see less patients and quicker to see more patients. Such as in canada? Maybe because they wanted to pamper wealthy patients? Why would they care to take care of the poor? In our freedom loving America, it is all about money. If there was a situation where there were two patients, one who was wealthy and had a bad knee and the other who was poor who had a child who was dying, I'm sorry to say but the doctor would choose the wealthy person. It is not there fault they want to get paid more right? You can't blame the health insurance if they want to be snobby, selfish and inconsiderate of others. There was a time when my adult friend said that there was a error on the medicaid (she has insurance through medicare) where they stated she had to pay the bill. If she was a defenseless American, she would have just paid with out fighting back, But she is not a defenseless American. She fought back, which one said in the movie, that Americans were afraid to do. In reality medicaid made an error. That can make people think about how many errors have they made, realized, but never came up front with it. In Sicko, those living in Europe have nothing to worry about when it comes to health care. They don't need to examine no errors because their taxes make it clear. They are never denied the aiding they must have, unlike my friend who was denied x-rays for her deceased son because he was too young to get it. Now if they were loving doctors, (she does not even believe them two words go right in the same sentence) who did not care about the money, her son will be living today, but unfortunately she did not live in Canada.
