The Buzz: Children's Health Up for Renewal

by Bill Wyatt

The State Children's Health Insurance Program, a state-federal partnership, is in jeopardy of running out of money in many states.  Congress is currently debating the future of the program which has provided health coverage for over six million children.

Since its enactment ten years ago, all 50 states have created their own children's health insurance programs to meet the needs of children who are not eligible for Medicaid but do not otherwise have health insurance.  Recently, many states have revisited their programs in an attempt to reach more children.

In this latest episode of The Buzz, Texas Senator Leticia Van de Putte discusses the key component of SCHIP that has lead to the program's success - state flexibility.

This is bordering on stupidity.

YOU MUST BE KIDDING! In the United States, the "child" age simply must be lowered to a more manageable financial age. I delivered newspapers when I was ten years old in
a suburb of Pittsburgh. I would carry golf bags for $2.00 for 18/holes of golf at 12
years old.

Many children work the mines at 8!
Many work the farms at 5. There is
nothing wrong with work! It is not a negative experience, it's called survival! Work is something that Royalty does to illustrate to their "kin folk" that accomplishments are only possible, by the collective efforts of many.

That's why etomologists study ant kingdoms.

Let's get something straight. WORK is not
a thing that only some, of the occupants,
of this planet do.

Nothing for nothing is worth exactly what
a collective society pays for it. However,
something for nothing, is what results when
when an ant kingdom uses a starved dead drone, that did nothing, to support the "foundation" of the colony for a new tunnel route to food.

I suggest our government socialists, begin
to apply similar strategies, in their
western social engineering models.

Because many of the "drones" I witnessed in government didn't look like they were starving to me. But, the foundation consisted of the working, and near dead, taxpayers.
