DO NOTHING….


DO NOTHING….

Some times it bothers me when people condemn the people they call Socialist… I don’t mean the actual group, but those who they feel are promoting socialism.   I understand, I get it.. they are tired of those who work, having to pay for those they feel  won’t work.  I really do get the fact that there are people who use the system.. We all have come across those who blandly with no qualms take everything and anything they can when they could have done better. .. fudging the truth, some times …out and out lie.

But we all know people who just don’t seem to be able to get ahead. To no fault of their own.. for what ever reason…Yet they are thrown in with the former.   To condemn them, is like throwing out the baby in the bath water saying.   These same people don’t seem to mind watching the very rich gain their money one way or another by the person who is in the factory working hard to make the product.  don’t seem to complain.  Do Nothing…  they say.. for those who don’t work.  You give to a friend…giving a helping hand, yet you think a stranger doesn’t deserve the same break.  Give to the rich who already has more than you.. more than enough, ones who brag…  When there is a program proposed to take the tax breaks away from Walmart, Amazon, Apple and other such huge profit companies.. They  yell SOCIALISM…. Wanting to put it into a education program.. to give breaks to those who can’t afford the $50,000 and up college education. Heck they can’t even afford the low end.. of junior college programs for $6,000.  They give the rich a pass, yet don’t want to help the poor?  Why?  Do NOTHING???  I just don’t get it.    And I have a hard time with those with out money or low wages…being denied health insurance, or health benefits.. or denied surgery because they can’t afford the bloated cost of hundreds of thousand..
Have you ever read a hospital bill?  $15 for an aspirin?  $5 for a mesh band to hope a iv in place? And other things you don’t understand..  The meds that are rising every week… Pharmacy raising the prices long after they got their money back from the research.  The life threatening of diabetes, cancer… drugs are being raised because they can.  Oh, you see in the tiny print… or the fast announcer saying if you can not afford this med. At the end of the ads on television. I have seen the hoops that those have to go thru. 
Do NOTHING…. That is the answer?  Socialism… like it is a dirty word… using Socialism of other countries that failed? Taking the money from those and giving to others?   When it comes to health, no one should have to go without because of money…. Education.. Do tell me, that those people did not apply themselves because they came from dirt poor families who could not afford college for the 4 to 8 kids…  Sad … very sad indeed…  Too bad they can’t walk in those shoes for 5 years and see how well they would do..
