Everything that is wrong with people these days. Proud american workforce

Thought I’d post this up for a health care perspective.

Seems I got a piece if steel stuck pretty good in my iris yesterday. I didn’t find it till this evening and couldn’t pry it out so I drove to the hospital where I have my medical coverage.

I parked in the private lot at 6:50pm, walked up to the reception desk (no line) handed the girl my card, signed my name three times, walked a few feet, sat down and in less than a minute had my vitals checked by a nurse as a doctor asked what happened. 5 minutes later I was seated with an ophthalmologist and 10 minutes after that the chunk of metal was out of my eye. I was back in my truck with an eye patch on and antibiotic drops in my pocket by 7:45.

On the way in and out the doors were opened for me and on the way out everyone said goodbye and told me to get well soon.

I was treated like a paying customer. NEVER was I treated like that in Canada and neither will any of my American friends once Obama care is in full swing.

It cost me about $200 cash, but I can get some of it back if I do a little paperwork for my insurance company, but had I requested to stay overnight it would have been covered 100%.

I LOVE THE PRIVATE SECTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nope, Dad said scars built character and Mom was a nurse. Baby brother and sister paid attention to Mom as she cared for me and both grew up to be doctors.

I agree with you dmf, it's work or die up here in the North of Mexico. If you don't want to work you can go down South, or to the coast and live like a monkey. There is fruit everywhere and you can sleep under the stars, but cars, healthcare, education and such are nonexistent. Too many people have forgotten what our predecessors went through for us to live like we do today.

Timothy 6:10 But those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful desires which plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.

Sums up 99 % of the worlds problems from the Big Man above. No matter how much we complain, you will never stop greed....... Let's all go ride a trike then sit back and pop open a beer. Have a great day everyone....
