The Perfect Solution to Senior Health Care ( From EFMOODY.COM ) While discussing the upcoming Universal Health Care Program with my sister-in-law the other day, I think we have found the solution. I am sure you have heard the ideas that if you're a senior you need to suck it up and give up the idea that you need any health care. A new hip? Unheard of. We simply can't afford to take care of you anymore. You don't need any medications for your high blood pressure, diabetes, heart problems, etc. Let's take care of the young people. After all, they will be ruling the world very soon. So here is the solution. When you turn 70, you get a gun and 4 bullets. You are allowed to shoot 2 senators and 2 representatives. Of course, you will be sent to prison where you will get 3 meals a day, a roof over your head and all the health care you need!!! New teeth, great!!! Need glasses, no problem. New hip, knee, kidney, lung, heart? Well bring it on. And who will be paying for all of this. The same government that just told you that you are too old for health care. And, since you are a prisoner, you don't have to pay any income tax.

By DON BABWIN, Associated Press Writer Don Babwin, Associated Press Writer – 1 hr 3 mins ago SOUTH HOLLAND, Ill. – They were waiting down at Gibson Chevrolet near Chicago for a couple of five-gallon cans of sodium silicate — liquid glass, they call it — to poison and kill the clunkers when the latest condemned car pulled up.
How to fix health care..here is your example.
Take the word " CLUNKERS" out..insert "anyone over RETIREMENT AGE."
Take " Car " out and insert " old person"
You fix Medicare.. medicate ..and Social Security in one BOLD swoop...using Government tax dollars those old duffers contributed..!!
The young..the poor ..pay nothing!!
More jobs and more housing and a greener environment.

From My Post " HOW DUMB ARE DEMOCRATS "
The House and the Senate health committee bills would limit age-related premiums so that a 64-year-old pays no more than twice as much an 18-year-old. But Senate Finance Committee negotiators are considering allowing as much as a 5-to-1 difference, a big savings for the young but a significantly higher cost for older people who are more likely to have health problems.
So Seniors who live on a FIXED INCOME LEARN that at minimum we will pay 2X as much as a PUNK KID who hasn't EARNED A THING.
Or in another version 5X the amount that some unemployed slacker lowlife who doesn't have a job..want to work...drug user ..uneducated..loser youth?
Next they'll compromise and say its a good deal..only 3.5X .
And you wonder why Seniors smell what OBAMA is cooking'
It smells like SENIORS.
mmm taste GOOD..
Why should Seniors pay for losers..? We have already ..OUR WHOLE LIFE.

They're being tied up while he is overlooking the fact that with our private insurance agencies, you get what you overpay for. It's much better that if you're between coverages, that you have to think about not going to the doctor for fear of coverage exemption under pre-existing conditions. It's much better that insurance companies can drop you if they feel you are getting too expensive. It's much better that many prescription plans do not cover prescriptions from dentists. It's much better that at least 1/6 of adults don't currently have any kind of coverage.
