Too Many Chickens

I just found out that I have health issues that I knew nothing about and now I get to take a pill every morning for the rest of my life or at least until GOD decides to fix me. I…like so many other people I know…don’t have any health insurance so I don’t do the whole preventive yearly check up and stuff. I had signed up to be a lab rat for a study this research center is doing (I gotta make some money somehow…lol) and they had to do some testing to make sure I qualified. It turns out that this time I actually got paid to go to the Doctor instead of paying him…the ultimate health care plan…lol.
Speaking of health care…I don’t want to get into a huge political statement kind of thing because I am not as informed as I should be (I tend to lose focus when I try to read articles about politics, and all the blah blah blah spewed out by the media just pisses me off!) but I do have my opinions about what the government should be doing for us and it ain’t happening. Sometimes it seems that public officials spend more time making sure they’re saying politically correct things and shaking the right hands than they spend doing the job we hired them to do. It actually scares me to think where this country started and where it looks like we’re headed. The concept of freedom has been twisted to fit so many platforms that none of us are truly free anymore. I am nondenominational and nonpartisan…I think that if we spent less time segregating our beliefs and values, and more time using moral common sense it would make a huge improvement. As long as everyone keeps looking out for themselves with no concern for the people they stomp on along the way, things are only going to get worse instead of better. I’m not sure that society really understands or even recognizes the blurred line between right and wrong anymore.
