Scaretactics
Okay let me start by saying I hate scaretactics, and I really get angry when our politicians start using them. We do not need scaretactics. I was starting to seriously consider one of our canadates over the other one even though he wasn’t in our normal voting preference. I am known to vote different every year and I don’t have a problem because I try to pick the canadate who I feel would best fill the role.
The biggest problem with politicians is you never know if they are being honest. There are times when the ads come on and you can say that not true or that stretching the truth a little to far.
Tonight a commercial came on my husband and I saw for the first time which made us mad. The ad was for our democrated canadate I want to say Madia, it was a health insurance scare type commericial. Okay let me correct him on something most insurance will not accept patients with pre-existing condition. I know this because I am a asmthatic and some companies will not take me on because I had to be on a couple of steriod inhalers to control my asmtha. Currently I don’t have health insurance but when I have had it through my company, which I can’t right now I had to wait a year before my asmtha was covered.
Okay, so he got this cancer patient running and talking about the republicain canadate plan to make health insurance harder to get. Well lets get a clue, health insurance if you already have something will be harder to get, maybe impossible because insurance company don’t want to have a lot of risks. I am not disagreeing that health care should be easier to get to, I am not disagreeing pre existing condition should be covered by the insurance. But I think Media has got some facts wrong here it wasn’t our republican who caused this problem it’s greed on capital hill which caused this problem. The problem is these insurance companies being allowed to charge a arm and a leg.
Hey you know I don’t have a problem wih privatising insurance, because I can’t afford it anyways. I do have a problem with making it even more out of reach for the everyday average joe. I am not saying the government should take care of it, because we know if they get to much power we’d be giving up more freedom until we become a country with no freedom. There is a reason why the founding father arranged the government how they did, and right now it seems like both sides are trying to make more government and less freedom.
