    Well...well...well... on the radio this morning the daily report on this woman mentioned she is on MediCal (the state program of medical care for the indigent)! So I guess it IS costing something to other than "the people in the plan..."

    Of course, this was followed by a report on California having the worst credit rating of the 50 states.

    Again, my issue is abuse of finite resources.

    I am not surprised either

    I had a feeling the health insurance issue was going to be public assistance. That really, really, irks me because she cannot afford to take of these children - let alone pay the insurance.

    "As the stomach turns" - stay tuned!

    OH MY!

    I was wrong.


    I'd like all of you to take a post-it and write on it, "I DON'T WANT my hard earned money to go for this travesty of health care." and attach it to your tax return.

    It works for me. I have never been charged for anything that I have made a note of. I never get a bill or notice!

    Now, That is what I love about my government and the people who are too lazy to write a short note to the people in charge!

    Can't just say "I was wrong" and be done with it can you? You have to insult people to boot. I guess we should be amazed you said you were wrong.

    You were wrong. And you would have been wrong even if she did pay premiums to Kaiser. Just as you write above (I think) we all pay for it, regardless. Just because someone has medical insurance does not mean that no one but those who are also in that medical plan pay the expenses.

    There are limited resources -- medical care, water, clean air, food, energy.

    We need to start to understand that and act accordingly.

    I think this case of the 14 Kids is fast turning into an example of
    "Nationalized Healthcare for the Few".

    There's NO doubt (in my mind) that ALL these 14 Kids will be well cared for
    (medically) for the rest of their lives - the News and the Public Outcries will
    make sure of that.

    And WHO's paying?
    Good ole Cal-ee-fornia - with a lotta help from ALL of us in the form of
    Federal subsidies to California.

    Hope ya'll enjoy YOUR share of "our" Kids.
