is it a perfect bill? Hardly, but I have yet to meet a perfect bill.

Some were patients of mine, like the young man we ended up transporting to the ER and later to a US hospital with a broken neck... (and one of the luckiest people I know)... you know why he did not want to be transported? THE COST.

Then there is my niece... she gets to stay on dad's until she is 26.

There is also the kid we transported who had an asthma attack, who we controlled. We had to refer her to a private provider in Mexico, why? Her family had no health care in the US... that dang pre existing...

Of course there are a few with things like Diabetes.

You get the picture, I knew that the health care system was in trouble... and I hope this will go a LONG WAY in ending this crap.

Those of you who are or were medical providers you know this. You have had to meet the eyes of a scared patient who knows they cannot afford it... the rest, especially the right wing, you should see it. It might touch something in your heart.

And to those bemoaning this, who are liberal... Social Security was not perfect either. In fact, that ACT, is very different than what we got today.
