RE: Is your child a cash cow for the doctor?

in #vaccines7 years ago

The insurance companies are sucking at the teat of public health dollars mandated by Congress since 1974, when employers were first required to provide health insurance for their employees. Ever since insurance has become a larger and larger component of our taxes, and our medical services have become more about insurance companies profiting than our health.

It's time to return to spending all our health care dollars on health care, and let insurers compete in a free market. We need to end government mandated health insurance, so we can regain control of our health.

I'm sick of letting insurance company profits determine what kind of treatment I am allowed.

Exactly. I should be able to do whatever I want to my body; it is my property. If I have the resources to modify it and the desire to, then I should be able to.

Note that I'm not so much advocating for transgender as I think those are just broken individuals who need love, not modification -- I'm talking about things like setting a broken arm; removing a mole; drinking hydrogen peroxide; using CBD oil; etc.

Making it a crime for me to treat myself? That right there is pretty criminal!

Any time industry gets in bed with government, the result is something abhorrent. For example, see these pictures from 100+ years ago, regarding the Federal Reserve:
