Well, I added a class this semester that, to my utter dismay, required that each and every day for a whole hour I had to write. The requirement was that it had to be scholarly and I am going to try and be as good as I can and think critically about what to write in here for my one faithful follower. First I would like to thank that follower and assure her that I will no longer waste her time with lengthy and yet useless blogs about how my cat had kittens or how I saw my child do something cute/funny. No, I am going to really try and force you into critical thought and hopefully when you're done reading have something cool to tell your friends. Lets start with an easy and current topic: the United States healthcare system. Before we start let me just say that if there are any topics you just really don't care to read further please, by all means, close your eyes; you really don't to read. Just note, however, that I have found it extremely difficult to find the x button on my computer screen in the complete darkness afforded by tightly shut eyes.
I digress, ONWARD! So the healthcare system. The healthcare system; it is completely and utterly broken. It is my opinion, however, that although it may appear to be the governments fault I would have to say yes it is. Unlike most Americans though I would say its not because they have not been able to wrestle or regulate health insurance (which by the way is 800% inflated) but because they have sidestepped the real problem with Americans health. The real reason that America's system is broken is because it serves way too many masters. Americans cant seem to make up their minds. They want a system that is extremely focused on perfection and therefore almost impossible to get into then they want 4 doctors just to work on one case. Furthermore, they refuse to follow any of the 4 doctors orders as they are inconvenient. I want to not be able to exercise; eat all the GMO and crap food that I want; and for you to bend the rules of nature and keep me young forever.
It would be rude at this point to just complain without giving a possible alternative so here it is. STOP BEING LAZY!! exercise, eat right, be smart (use diagnostic tools to fix your runny nose like sleep) and for heavens sakes don't go in to the doctor unless you have been ailed for at least a week. I also think the government should help build more medical schools and tell the MDs to shove it when it comes to not wanting more doctors in order to keep themselves a rare breed of prestigious idiotic. We need more doctors...and just like Vanderbilt, Rockefeller and Morgan the doctors are trying to stomp out development and keep themselves the corner of the market. It really needs to stop. Make medical school about learning and not a beauty contest. Allow for those capable to succeed and not just people who know other people. Medicine is not all that hard it just takes hard work and dedication to learn the material. There's my two cents.
