Jay Parkinson, M.D. on healthcare in America

I have been a huge fan of this innovative doctor for many months. Dr. Parkinson uses the best web technology to save his patients massive amounts of money and hassle, while also making a good living for himself. I really wish we had one of these where I live, and I think we soon will. In the meantime, read what he has to say on the idea of government-run healthcare:

I’ve always been a democrat — all my life. After working at the Maryland State Department of Health, I had very obvious proof that the government is the last entity I want running anything. It is antithetical to what makes our country great and the quest for profits that makes humans work their ass off to do their best. The Obama and Hillary plans are a hand-out to the industry that destroyed our healthcare system. Their plans force me to donate my hard-earned money to the insurance industry, the very industry that destroyed our healthcare system with it’s policies, and in particular, their reimbursement policies. Forcing me to throw money at these people…damn, I would rather be fined than give those fools any of my money.

Saying that McCain’s plan is “the best,” as Forbes does, is like saying that dying by bleeding to death is the best compared to being trampled by elephants. The best healthcare policy is one which has as little interference from politicians and bureaucrats as possible - and that includes the way that big business has come to rely upon manipulating the government and using its overreaching powers as an extension of its own.

  1. Thanks Jackie! Unless people want their healthcare to look even more like the postal service, stop supporting universal healthcare.
    Take care.

  2. As my dad said over the weekend, if you like the idea of government health care, I present to you the VA

  3. I totally agree with the doctor in your article and the above comment. People have no idea what government run healthcare would be like but they all seem to want it. Nothing is for free look at other countries that have it. Gas prices way higher groceries way higher, they don’t even own suv’s they can’t afford to put gas in them. People need to really look into this and the media does not help.
