Still a bit under the weather?

Well, it has been quite a while since my last post. A lot has changed since then, but a lot has stayed the same. What has changed is Healthcare Reform is in the process of being implemented and also repealed--at the same time.

Being in the industry, health insurance, I have some unique views to the inner workings of HCR. It's kind of like watching sausage being made. If you knew what what was going into the meat grinder, you would stop eating it! Many people, however, don't take the same approach when standing at the window of government services. They know what kind of garbage is going into the grinder, but think that the end result is going to be some kind of masterful silver bullet that will make our health insurance cost 50% less, and do 100% more than it currently does.

Is it just me, or does it seem like people still believe in fairy tales? Healthcare still needs fixing, and there are now some new wounds caused by HCR to add to the mix. Primary among them, is the high cost of insurance. Oh wait, HCR was supposed to fix that. Oh well, at least they tried. 3000 pages of new government legislation and counting and we still have 50 million uninsured and health insurance premiums are rocketing skyward. Hmmmm..... Better HOPE that more CHANGE is on the way in 2012!
