I already replied to Marcia and am not going to get in any flame wars. To your point, she did not tell it like it is. I was not speaking of myself at all, just our health care "system" as a whole. I don't receive any handouts and don't want any. Over the course of my working career I have paid way more than the average person in income taxes, social security, and the Medicare/Medicaid fund. If Marcia thinks she has been carrying me on her back she is quite mistaken.
