Guest guest Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Blaming us for our greedy and corrupt government/corporate system is like blaming yourselves for the systems in your country that do not work, aka your socialized medicine, for example, that you did not have control over. Face it, governments do not represent people. And we have LITTLE control over their actions. Don't pretend voting gives you much say. We don't vote on important decisions being made daily. Our elected officials do. And they do what they want, or what the corporation tells them to do. We need to stop villifying each other. We are not each other's enemy. Until we find more that we are united on, instead of fighting each other, we'll always be the victims. When people start uniting together, then we will have more power. Governments have worked to keep us divided in many ways. In the US the two-party system works to divide us. Libs are fighting repubs for some senseless reason, hating their neighbors! not stopping to notice that all of the politicians are on the take, and not really representing us. Some of them are doing a better job, but they're ALL rich, and ALL on the take, and ALL of them are immune from the law (check out how diligent they are paying their taxes. Could you do the same?) They do this so we fight each other, instead of uniting to fight our common enemy, which is them (government/corporate spokespeople). We are filled with daily distractions in the news to polarize the people and solidify the distinctions. Stop the senseless arguing, please.

Hey, it beats waiting in > like! The only healthcare I can afford is self-care, and even that is limited. If I get a situation that I can't handle myself, I have to suffer through the socialized medical system. If I got cancer or some other serious illness, if I couldn't take care of it myself, I would die just like all the other people who don't have any other options. Talking about cancer, I've read reports that people who have no treatment at all last longer than those who get standard treatment, so how is universal healthcare beneficial in this context?

Freedom, in the context of healthcare, means being able to choose whatever form of treatment that you prefer, and using your own money and other resources to buy the services of whatever practitioner you choose or can afford. It means having practitioners of any type of therapy being able to freely practice their craft, without being stomped on by the government lackeys of special interest groups.

People are being prevented from seeing alternative practitioners, not only because of the restrictions that exist against alternatives, but also because the alternatives are more expensive than they should be due to the lack of real competition.

Socialized medicine is what this discussion is about, and it will be worse because you will have the same form of medicine, but will have to pay for it all the time, regardless of whether you use it or not.

It was the first time in the history of the world where people broke away from tyrants and established a society based upon individual liberty. That's why it was referred to as " the great experiment " . At its inception, lin said, " a Republic, if we can keep it " . Many other countries revolted against one form of tyranny, but just replaced it with another form, such as monarchy being replaced with socialism or communism. Countries such as Canada didn't begin with a defining moment like the U.S. Whatever freedom we have basically trickled down to us. That's why you Americans have greater responsibility for your present situation. Regards, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get taxed to pay for it whether you use it or not. So, anyone who uses alternative methods has to pay twice.

In my observation and experience, the majority of people are very short-sighted and small-minded when it comes to issues like this. They only look at the fact that they don't have to directly pay.

It's not for you or anyone else to dictate that people can't profit from healthcare. It's a skilled trade like any other, and those practicing it should be able to profit from it if they can.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Well, the problem on this one is that people into alternative medicine think Lyme, which is pervasive, chronic, and horribly debilitating, can be cured much more simply than it actually can by methods such as alkalizing the body, cleaning up the diet, and staying organic, cleanses, etc. This one seems to differ in the level of illness that it imposes on the body. Even those who used rife, used multiple other treatments, and it takes years. In the process of it, meds make staying alive bearable. Also, sometimes antibiotics can be a life-saver. I tried staying away from doctors, working towards wellness, and it's do-able, was even favorable to the treatment under allopathic medicine, but not while trying to live " normally, " such as working daily. If you really want to achieve complete wellness from chronic neuro lyme, the kill method is required, not just trying to nourish and cleanse the body.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Yeah, I actually predicted this response. I posted my response before this response to you--I don't know why the lag. Maybe I'm moderated. Anyway, lyme disease is funny that way. I was at my " healthiest " ever when I got it full blown. I had been an organic vegetarian for years, meditated, had done all the cleansing, doing much bodywork regularly, was weightlifting and running regularly .... had healed and cleansed on every level. I am not the only one. I know of a man who owns an herbal company, and used to go around and give talks on how to achieve total wellness via herbs, and vegan natural lifestyle. He said the same thing I did--he was at his peak of health when the spirochete got him and put him under. Lyme is humbling, isn't it? Even better, were the people that used to say that if you have a chronic illness, on some level you WANT it. Or karma. Or you did something. Clean up your thoughts. Practice forgiveness. A healed lymie is never arrogant again, never takes health for granted again, have you noticed? > > Wow! > > I thought I used to be arrogant. > > I suppose this is some sort of karmic retribution, as I used to make > statements exactly like this one and now here I am looking into the mirror. > > Plenty of people have " taken responsibility for their health via nutrition " > and still ended up getting blind sided. > > Just keep eating your good foods and spouting your wisdom, and, if you're > lucky, you'll never cross paths with any spirochetes. > > > In a message dated 4/9/2009 5:53:43 P.M.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Yeah, I actually predicted this response. I posted my response before this response to you--I don't know why the lag. Maybe I'm moderated. Anyway, lyme disease is funny that way. I was at my " healthiest " ever when I got it full blown. I had been an organic vegetarian for years, meditated, had done all the cleansing, doing much bodywork regularly, was weightlifting and running regularly .... had healed and cleansed on every level. I am not the only one. I know of a man who owns an herbal company, and used to go around and give talks on how to achieve total wellness via herbs, and vegan natural lifestyle. He said the same thing I did--he was at his peak of health when the spirochete got him and put him under. Lyme is humbling, isn't it? Even better, were the people that used to say that if you have a chronic illness, on some level you WANT it. Or karma. Or you did something. Clean up your thoughts. Practice forgiveness.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Hi Ken: There is a need for medical centers. The problem is in the underlying system that allows them to have the power they have over people. The reality is that we very often don't have a real choice where we spend our money. Also, people should have the right to choose to not take care of themselves, as long as someone else doesn't have to pay the price. Even people who do take care of themselves run into problems, but is that my or your fault? If not, why should you or I have to pay for it? Why should someone else have to pay for my medical care if it's not their fault? What Socialists like and Randy want, is for someone else to pay for their problems. It would be one thing if someone else freely chose to help them out. That's called charity. But Socialists don't like the idea of charity. They want to use the law to force others to pay for their problems. That's called welfare. And of course the administrators of the welfare system will take a sizable portion for themselves. The will also administer it in they way that they see fit, not the people who are paying the bills. This is where all the problems of socialistic systems come from.

On the occasions that I do need it, I make use of it. Now, why should someone like me, who rarely uses the medical system, be forced to pay for someone like you, who regularly uses it? Are your medical problems my fault? And since I generally don't care for the pharmaceutical drug based medical system, why don't we have a medical system that includes and caters to my preference?
