Look at Indian Healthcare to see what govt health care is all about

If they can't come up with money to provide decent health care for 4.5 million Native Americans do you think they can take care of 300 million more?

We had the option to have our three kids delivered on the government dime in an Indian hospital but chose a private hospital instead. Visit an Indian hospital some time and you'll understand why. I encourage you to do that because you'll get to see what government health care is all about. Check out this video with remarks by senators and governors in reservation states, including our own Gov. Rounds.

Interesting also is the mad rush to get Planned Parenthood (aka Child Abuse Inc.) out on the rez to eliminate more of these people ("human weeds" according Planned Parenthood's founder). Maybe the government doesn't make Indian health care a priority because they still don't view them as fully human. Remember, the Bureau of Indian Affairs is still, unbelievably, a division of the Department of the Interior which is the branch of our government which has jurisdiction over natural parks, natural resources, geology and minerals, mining, and fish and all WILDLIFE.

If you think being classified with the wildlife is something natives in our state don't think is a big deal, I'll introduce you to a few who can explain how that feels better than I. Some of them feel like when they get sick the government is sending them to the vet. But I'm sure the government health care for those of us who are "non-wildlife" will be far better. So be sure to support Obama's plan!

Interesting take. I had never thought of that angle before.
