From today's NY Times: Many Republicans say the administration should not take any steps that would harm consumers.
Asked if the president should stop making the payments to insurers, Senator John Kennedy, Republican of Louisiana, said: “I don’t think anybody ought to do anything to hurt the American people. Obamacare is not working. It’s bad enough on its own. Until we can get the thing fixed, I think we have to try to maintain the status quo.”
Me: We definitely need something new as more and more people are seeing we are screwed as long as the Medical Industrial Complex gets to preserve their
power. The actual real solution seems to me to be some kind of radical new sense of what Healthy means to an individual or a Civilization.
It needs to start with a sense of personal sense of responsibility as to how we live our lives. Then transform that to our Communities, our 'zoom culture' of entitlement where someone else will come along to solve our problems. (Dammit! Why can't someone 'show me the way' .. and I can relate ... just today thinking ... it is not easy Navigating through a lifetime but.. somehow we persevere or go with the flow or not..)
I have this fantasy of a 'Service' like the Military. Only it's the Medical, it's the Health Service... ... ... hopefully we figure something out soon. Practical and Generous.
