of what is so wrong about our so-called health care system?

In the rural south, deep in urban LA and now in New Orleans, thousands of people with no access to regular check-up based health care showed up and waited for hours just for a chance to be in proximity of a doctor. Nurses and aides handed out most of the care, but there were enough doctors to treat those in need.

If I had no health care, I don't know if I would have gone in for a check-up. If some ailment was found, would that be considered a pre-existing condition and would it then preclude me from ever getting health insurance again? But then again, I am not now in such a desperate place to have to worry about that.

I just can't fathom the ignoring skills of those in power. How can they be so cavalier with their constituents’ health and welfare?

Why did they run for office in the first place?

If it was for self-aggrandizement then they will surely end in that ring of hell devoted to unfettered pride.

But too many of those poor souls forced to stand in line are left to depend on the sunny hear after promised by Christians across this land. Suffering on this mortal plane will almost surely guarantee a punched ticket at St. Peter's gate. Or so the story goes. But what does that say about the so-called Christian politicians who would continue that suffering by turning a very well paid blind eye to all that sorrow and pain.

I don't know. I am just getting over a very expensive illness that would break all but the richest family if they had no insurance.
