This being a world where accidents and disease happen despite
our best efforts, . . . .
I wrote about luck and chance a few weeks ago. I feel the same about
accidents. And I think disease can be prevented by choice. Contrary
to the happy "S--t happens," I feel that bad happenings are human caused.
Anyway, old farts have the option of Medicare (though the so-called
prescription drug benefit is a scam).
I decline to accept and pay for Medicare Part B. Drugs? Don't use them.
I am, however, in favor of a national health care plan, for pragmatic
reasons. Should the DC Whorehouse ever create one, I will willingly
pay my fair share of its cost.
