I want to rant on the lack of Health Care availability for all at reasonable prices or even free… but in the spirit of Only the Good Friday (on Monday), I won’t. What I will do is share this good thought with you:

We found out last week that although health care costs for retirees for Verizon were increasing by approximately 10%, the cost provided for by the GTE contract I retired under and my particular choice of Health Care options DECREASED by around 30% for next year over this year.

Please, join me in this… it may seem like a minor step or inconsequential step to you, but in mass, you just never know, it might work. If enough people envision it, someone will come up with a working plan, one better than we can imagine, but we have to put the thought in their head so strong, they can’t ignore it – and it costs you nothing but a moment of your time — and we all waste moments on absolutely nothing. I KNOW I am not the only one.

I see a future, sooner than I would have thought, of health benefits for all, regardless of position in life, poor choices, good choices, job, or no job. Let’s see everyone with an equal opportunity to take advantage of medical science IF we choose to…
