To emphasize on a specific problem, drug addicts should be denied disability. They are very able to go to the liquor store and very resourceful to get their drugs . . . they are not disabled there! So they can go to work like the rest of us! One additional point, social medicine is not going to work . . . it may work for the very poor, who already have it, or the lazy that are on disability . . . the wealthy will be able to afford the best . . . didn’t Obama said that he is not concerned about himself because he has the best healthcare for his family and himself? Who will be screwed is always the middle class. Employers eventually will no longer pay for healthcare premiums and if one selects to have private insurance would have to pay for the full premium amount. It is not fair for someone who is working to have the same “free” (since we paying for it anyway) healthcare as someone who gets truly free healthcare because incapacitated, disabled, lazy, illegal, or whatever (and again we paying for it) . . . so who’s getting free healthcare?
