Tell Us Your Health Care Horror Story

Submitted by Zach Howell on Thu, 08/20/2009 - 3:17pm.

We as Americans are so used to living in a nation with the best health care in the world that some of us have trouble imagining anything else. That’s why some believe that the health care “reform” Democrats are proposing will yield the same quality of care we receive now, only it will be "free.” But the horror stories of government-run health care in countries like Britain and Canada may become our reality if the Democrats in Congress are able to pass their health care legislation.
Do you or someone you know have a health care horror story to tell? Email us at team@crnc.org or comment on our blog below.

Some pretty good comments on it already. Obviously it got out to the liberal blogosphere.

1. As Rheta Grimsley Johnson so ably put it
We used to call them Ku Klux Klansmen, we now know them as Young Republicans.

I have the communistic, socialistic health care, Tricare for Military Retirees and I have not had one problem with it. I get health care, my doctor fills out the paper work and I've yet to receive a bill in seven years. Oh the horrors of my health care system.

Not all doctors take Tricare and some Doctors charge more then Tricare will pay for, but all in all it ain't bad for a bunch of communists.

3. As the saying goes...
College is not for everybody, especially Zach:

"We as Americans are so used to living in a nation with the best health care in the world that some of us have trouble imagining anything else."

More accurately, some of us have trouble imagining what it would be like to live "in a nation with the best health care in the world."

5. Oh yeah, that could happen
I wouldn't trust these sneaky little shits around the corner with a burnt-out match. I'm sure I'm going to divulge even the first scintilla of personal information to these burgeoning little fascisti.

6. No shit! You definitely don't want them within a mile of your wallet or credit cards
The College Republicans of Texas (where Ashley Todd the backwards B girl got her start) was running a scam on elderly people. They were getting thousands of dollars in contributions and keeping the money.
