Anger

I write this blog today with a little anger. I am just fed up with healthcare and insurance. It is ridiculous what people like me(who take several medications daily) and live with chronic illness have to go through. I have a feeling that many people were not in favor of Obama's healthcare reform need to open their eyes wide. Is the reform perfect? No, not by any means. This current system is whack, and some change is better than no change. Our focus on acute care is ridiculous.

The system is set up to fail us. How about insurance companies cover more costs of gym dues. Why does it cost more money to buy healthy foods than junk food? Why does grass-fed beef cost more than corn-fed beef? Grass is free last time I checked.Why does organic food cost more? You would think money is being saved on the pesticide purchases. My Dr as like, get your meds in Canada. Way cheaper. All because I have garbage insurance that my pay twice as much for as my last job, and only a quarter of the benefits. Who knew?? Yea Yea Yea, I like Obama, and all, but it seems like business as usual in Washington, and we will see if this reform really works out.
