Here is one health care 'process' we go through in this country...
Say you're a 50 something year old male suffering from moderate to sever pain for no other reason than the body you inherited from your family...
So finally you make a Doctor's appointment, likely weeks in the future... So you wait... Then you go. Once you get there you discover that the Doctor won't really so much as talk to you until you have a regular examination... So that's what the first appointment becomes... And you 'pay'...
Then you set up a second appointment to see the Doctor again about your initial problem, pain...
So you go back a second time, weeks later, and the Doctor write you a script for some 'kick ass' pain pills. Hydrocodone maybe.... And you 'pay' again...
So then you take that script to a pharmacy where you, finally, 'pay' someone some 'money' in return for your 'drugs'.
The 'drugs' coming, of course, from the large pharmaceutical companies...
Or, I guess alternatively, you 'could' just happen to know someone who knows someone who can get you the 'pain meds' you need without all the bullshit wealth grabbing in between.
I mean come on... It's not like you have to be a 'rocket scientist' to figure out that you are in a lot of 'pain' and would benefit from the use of some hydrocodone.
That's why there is a 'drug war' (and health care 'reform'). Because we, the people, are already designing a better 'drug distribution system' ourselves... In the end you're handing 'someone' some 'money' for your 'drugs' either way you go...
The real 'drug war' is being waged against the American people...
The pharmaceutical companies, the Doctors and the pharmacies can't take the competition...
