Micah 6:6-8

"But he's already made it plain how to live, what to do, what GOD is looking for in men and women. It's quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor, be compassionate and loyal in your love, And don't take yourself too seriously-take God seriously."

Question of the day

So here's a scenario. If a person chooses to stay home with her children and raise them then gets cancer she does not qualify for social security disability because she has not worked enough quarters. If that girl's only source of income is now a small amount of alimony because her husband left during all the cancer, she then makes too much for social security income. So the girl now cannot qualify for Medicaid or afford health insurance, meaning she has no way to pay for treatment. Same girl comes to hospice. She is now eligible for Medicaid because she is a hospice patient; however, if she leaves hospice to pursue treatment, she loses the Medicaid. So here's the question: when exactly are we going to actually fix our completely messed up health care system?
