Jesus, I wish I could put my soap box away for good on this blog. But some events overwhelm me with frickin' frustration. So let me make this short.
My buddy, Ed, called me today from Chico, California where he was couch surfing that landed him on dry land where he needs to make rent in some hippie commune. Ed's not a hippy commune kind of guy. But that's as cheap as rent can get without living in some inner city war zone. Oh yeah, Barack. Quit dickin' around and make some real frickin' change.
Ed couldn't make a go of it earning a living in Seattle doing acupuncture even though he is a great caring healer getting great results. See my 2 Youtube videos ,if you don't believe me. They are no a frickin' infomercial. Oh yeah, in case I forget. Barack quit dickin' around in the White House. We need a major shake up including in health care. Not the nonsense that you passed, that you're spinning as a Holy Grail. Jesus. Use your God given gifts to inspire to change things, instead of being an overly pragmatic politician. Shit I'm pissed. Of course, Ed ain't making shit cleaning apartments, not when there are illegal immigrant competing for the same low paying job. My heart is breaking a few hours ago talking to Ed.
Then I get home and I go over the frickin' edge. There is a guy mentioned in some post way back when. This guy had severe back pain for 18 years. 18 frickin' years. I turned him onto Ed and after two frickin' treatments he's fine. That was a year ago and his back is still fine. But about 7 months ago, he's working on the Seattle docks and a his shoulder starts to give him pain as he's a welder on these docks. It gets worse and he can't go to work. He's in severe pain.
But Ed is couch surfing to get by. So this guy has insurance and a month ago he got surgery and he's showing me at the the dinner table a few minutes ago how he can't do shit with his shoulder. I'm curious. My heart is breaking. He's frustrated because Ed's out of town. I say the game is rigged. Insurance, for the most part, doesn't cover acupuncture. He probably spent about $300 out of pocket to pay Ed to get his back fixed. He tells me his insurance paid $50, 000 for his shoulder surgery, and his shoulder is still a pile of shit.
Hey Barack, wake fuckin' up. Change things. About a year ago, I pondered becoming politically correct to get my Chinese Medicine message across. I'm glad I didn't go over to that dark side. Barack is showing me what is looks like with the Western Doctor lobbyists pretty much creating a monopoly on the money making medicine machine.
