Some government workers do believe that they are above the law. I have seen what some have done and have had the experience to see what happens when corrupt government employees are allowed to get off without consequences for their actions.
Such as who? And you don't think the private sector has corruption? What about all the fraud last decade on Wall Street? What about the fact that Aetna lied about their reasons for leaving the Obamacare exchanges? What about Exxon knowing
forty years ago that carbon pollution is a major contributor to global warning? What about tobacco companies pretending that cigarettes don't give you lung cancer? What about private prison companies that steal from taxpayers while abusing prisoners? What about the sugar industry that lied about fat and tarnished the reputation of a scientist who
was right about sugar's adverse affects on American consumers?
You said yourself that these companies routinely traffic in corruption and misbehavior, yet you have a bug up your butt about government workers, of whom you still haven't really said do the things you accuse them of doing? Why?
Trump is an elected official not a government worker.
What's the difference?
No due to the corruption that is systemic throughout I pay nothing at this point towards the care of anyone else through taxes unless you consider my property taxes which are minimal because we do not live in a very luxurious setting.
Wrong. Whether you realize it or not,
you are paying for someone else's care when you pay cash for health care. Furthermore, what happens in the event you cannot afford to pay cash for health care? Then what? Should you just die? Should you trade chickens for health care? What do you do if you find yourself in such a position. Since most major medical issues are something entirely out of your control, how can you possibly think you can glide along paying cash until you become eligible for government-run Medicare? Because I don't believe for a second you won't take Medicare when you are eligible.
When and if I had cash to pay for my own shots I kept the Epipen on hand so there actually would have been no extra emergency room cost. As far as where my tax dollar goes to now I suppose that they will have to use some of that money to pay for their new hospital that many people here did not want.
So all of this is anecdotal which immediately throws it into question. People didn't want a hospital near them? Really? I find that hard to believe. And you're saying it was a state hospital, not a private one? Well, the state wouldn't build a hospital unless there was a need for it. You're lucky because many states are shutting down their hospitals thanks to state legislature death panels, like the one here in GA that shut down a couple rural hospitals in the central part of the state because they refused to expand Medicaid.
With what lil' cash I can muster now I am treating myself naturally since the state WC system was willing to ignore the employers, their insurance companies obligations via fraud and deception.
Well, that's a pretty big risk on your part, and you're not only putting yourself at risk, but you're putting everyone else at risk in the event you have a major medical issue that requires you to be hospitalized. Because there's no way you'd be able to afford the cost of a hospital stay out of your own pocket. So you're very selfishly taking advantage of everyone else who have taken personal responsibility and got themselves insurance. What would you call someone like that? I'd call them a
moocher.
Due to the fact that the insurance company and state and their physco doctor would have preferred to poison me further with drugs and allow me to die on top of the damage caused by chemical exposure I suffered at work, I feel I am much better qualified and now much more well inform on how to treat myself so no one else is paying that bill either. See you really are totally making up shit that you have no clue about.
OK, so when it comes to workplace compensation for injury or disability, that's an entirely different beast than merely having health insurance. That sounds like an issue for your work-comp, and my advice is to sue in order to get compensation for what happened to you. But what happened to you is not an indictment of government-run health insurance.
