I could be completely wrong...
But here's how I would like to change the world.
Part A:
Healthcare:
Healthcare isnt overpriced in America because of the expense of equipment, high cost of living of Doctors, or "Price gouging" by drug companies (stupid obama).
Healthcare is overpriced because Doctors have to pay through their nose to protect themselves from the money hungry public who's been trained to sue doctors for millions if they make a 30$ mistake. Healthcare isn't so high because its expensive stuff..Pills are just chemicals, fungus, and wood particles. Healthcare is expensive because the subconscience of america has been trained to believe that their "pain and suffering" is worth more than most americans will make in their lives.
If laws need to be inacted to curb anything, it needs to be the amount of money for which people can sue doctors. Doctors are humans, who 9 times out of 10 will do the best they can because they know, if they don't, they won't make a living. Like my friend Jeremy said, "Lets give doctor's offices ratings like restaurants. Mess up and youre dropped a letter grade." Mwhahaha.
Fix the problem, not the symptom. I guess they could have asked Doctors...but heaven forbid liberal america bends an ear to people who aren't poor.
Part B:
Immigration:
Illegal immigrants are illegal.
Period.
Did you see the period?! If you break the law, you must pay for your crime. I can almost guarantee that if you enforce harsh penalties (and I dont mean fines, I mean prison, or extradition) on 100,000 random illegal immigrants, there would be a mass exodus. Illegal people are lounging in our suburbs right now because they dont give a shit what are laws are A:because they don't know enough English to read them, and B: they've never had them enforced upon them.
And oh woe is me but mexicans do the work that americans won't do...I betcha if you had a more severe welfare reform, there'd be a LOT of people who wanted to pick some peaches or tar a roof. We've spoiled our own country to the point that we've had to go back to plain old fashioned slavery. We just chose a different race. What happens when those 11,000,000 INSURGENTS realize what we're doing to them? I have a feeling WE won't understand the laws if it comes to that...
Now lets talk about what we do when we finally clear out all these illegal people, lets talk about what we do to maintain a healthy immigration system...First of all...these people feel the need to come over illegally because A: the laws are too convoluted to really understand and B: They don't have the money. So lets just say, application is simple...You fill out a paper and you're given a visa, for the first 30 days its free...In those 30 days, how bout go out and get some job offers..Show that you can contribute to our society...Oh and LEARN ENGLISH...geesh..why are we so afraid to say that we're an English speaking country...Youre reading english right now... I ja znam da ne moze razumjeti moj hrvatski...so Why do I have to start turning cans around to find the English, and listen to someone tell me to Oprime Siete...AAAHHH!
But I digress...MAYBE...
Part C:
Minimum Wage:
Last year I got a 60 cent raise.
Wait I take that back...
I got a 60 Cent raise followed swiftly by a 30 cent pay cut. What? Pay cut you ask? Why did you get a pay cut?
Well...This is how it works. Minimum wage is 5.70 one day...and our brilliant congress ups it however much they up it because "families shouldn't have to live on minimum wage." Youre absolutely correct. They shouldnt. But because you raised minimum wage, you also forced the average employer currently paying minimum wage to lose an extra $2400 a week. Where exactly do we think that money is going to come from...Hmm..Well..now suddenly gum is more expensive, the cost of apples goes up, Man, I can't even afford Honey anymore..So now suddenly, because they raise minimum wage, I'm paying an average of about 30 cents an hour more for everything I have to buy.
now what we SHOULD do?
Tell employers they can pay people whatever they want...
If I'm a McDonalds owner and I need someone to flip a burger...and someone comes in and I say, "Hey, I need these burgers flipped, how bout I pay you 2$ an hour..." Right now that person would laugh and walk away...But let's say someone didn't. Lets say someone thought...Wow...thats a deal...what an easy job, and great pay! Who is the GOVERNMENT to say that THAT person is wrong to think that?
Oh but what about all the people who would be forced to work for such little money...
Ok...look...I work for a VERY competitive corporate entity...You know what makes them competitive? Good people. You know what brings in the good people? The great pay and benefits. You know what else? 80% of the jobs at my company are entry level jobs. You could walk in with little more than a highschool diploma and get a job. What a beautiful thing!
Why is it that people make themselves marketable? It IS a disgrace that grown people would be working for minimum wage...but its not a disgrace to society, its a personal disgrace to the INDIVIDUAL.
but that brings welfare to the forefront of my mind...and I think I might need to save something for later.
I know my more liberal friends are frothing at the mouth..but me too dammit.
