Canadian Always!

Herein lies the fundamental problem. People on the left of this issue want to argue about whether or not people are getting the health care they need. I don't care if they are getting the health care they need. Are they getting the health care they earned? This point of view doesn't make me a heartless person either...it makes me a patriotic American. This attitude has made America the greatest provider of health care the world has ever seen.

Our Constitution attempts to guarantee life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. These are things they can't take away from you, not things they must give you. Contrary to what the lefties will tell you, health care is not a life issue. The guarantee of life means the government can't kill you, not that they will keep you alive no matter what. Health care is a quality of life issue; i.e, happiness.

Just like any other commodity, if you want more of it, or any of it for that matter...you need to earn it. Doctors and other health care professionals have a right to a return on their investment just like any other career choice.

What do you do for a living? How would you like it if a bunch of other people decided they were entitled to the fruits of your labor, except they didn't like how much you were charging for it, so you have to lower your prices? This nonsense has got to stop.
