Fan Zine Lunatico Care

Our administration and representatives are negotiating the terms to take over our health care system, in the belief that it is too expensive, and will cripple our economy if the costs are not controlled. The human element is the plea to cover people that do not have insurance, so they will have access to the best care money can buy.

Rather than plow ground that has been plowed by writers more gifted than I, my focus is how to provide health care to uninsured citizens. If this is a national priority, let’s not destroy the health care system that stands between us, and the grim reaper in the process.

As a former County Commissioner, I had the responsibility to oversee and fund the county health department. This health care facility provided basic services to many who could not afford (or chose not to pay for) access to private care.

County health departments exist throughout the nation, working quietly to benefit society’s poorest citizens. Free or reduced price, health care is already being provided depending on your ability to pay.
