Subject: RE: BS: 7000 refugees to arrive in the U.S.
I just wrote a check to the pharmacy for $330.45 for our regular precriptions & that's not for a full month for my family. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO from my wife's very large self insured employer. How do you think I feel about a national health plan? I just started medicade too. The plan tells me what are the prefered med's & what isn't & what's covered & what's not. What to do when my body & Dr tells me different? Finding a new country may be easier than finding a new plan!

Canada's health plan is failing? Wait till you really need health care here, "you ain't seen nothing yet, baby"!

I can say that I'm lucky to be alive though these costs are gonna be the death of me yet.

Barry, here in the US by the grace of God.
