...her "caretakers".
Stop saying that there are X million Americans without medical care! It's NOT true! There are X million uninsured Americans, yes. Some of them, like my parents and I, have made a PERSONAL CHOICE (Is that still a VALUE outside of the abortion debate in this country?) to pay CASH for our medical care if and when the need arises. I will now CHOOSE to pay incrementally for insurance, because I have been hit with big, bloated hospital bills and now realize that I am not infallible.
As an uninsured individual without full-time employment (Don't get any ideas -- I am neither insured nor employed full-time BY CHOICE.), I am eligible for NUMEROUS methods of assistance in paying for the medical care which I received at the end of last year. How do I know? Because when they saw from my hospital admissions papers that I was neither insured nor employed full-time, hospital staff called to tell me they could help pay my bills! It is my CHOICE how to proceed from here. So, I can tell you that those who haven't made a conscious decision to gamble on being healthy, those who are uninsured due to a lack of funds or planning, THOSE people have the same options that I have! I received my emergency medical care when I needed it, without insurance.
Do not, use me to further your AGENDA of a big, bad, babysitting Federal Government. Keep your laws, your regulations and your lying statistics off my body.

I'm a little bit country, I'm a little bit R&B, I'm a little bit of everywhere I've lived, I'm a lot of Don't Mess With Me, Don't know if you'll understand, But I know it's clear to me, I'm a little bit hip-hop, But it's ALL about Liberty. (Thank you, Tracey Ullman and Donny & Marie).
