      One suggestion for health care situation is cooperativism

      You go to a doctor's office with an illness, but you have no health insurance. The cost of health insurance is beyond your financial means. You decided not to go to the emergency room at a hospital where the government would pick up the tab. Instead you came to this doctor where in return for his or her service to assist your well-being, you would return a service that would assist his or her well-being.

      You joined a health cooperative where personal dollars or tax dollars are not required, only service in return for service. The health co-op is voluntary cooperation, which is the solution to the health care crisis within our nation.

      Universal health care is socialism or forced cooperation, which denies the individual freedom. Capitalism is premised on the notion that we are put here to beat each other and fuels the notion of greed, which is both destructive to the well-being of humanity, since we were not put here to beat each other.

      Cooperativism or voluntary cooperation is the only sound and sane solution to the health care crisis and to what an economy must be.
