Interactive video aimed at getting people to discuss their opinions and have a respectful debate about the healthcare reform. My biggest concern for Australia (and other countries) is that Naturopathy is often not a registered profession. I am doing a Naturopathy degree, and have college loans from the government… yet when I am qualified, there is no protection of title. Anyone can call themselves a Naturopath and start up a clinic in my country, with absolutely no medical knowledge. It’s sick! I want Australia to register Naturopathy and make it more accessible and affordable for the public. But the government is reluctant, because Naturopathy won’t make them any money. Naturopathy heals people without expensive pharmaceuticals, without name brand anything. But TCM has been registered, so hopefully Naturopathy is not too far off. Pharmaceuticals cause people so many health problems, just from their side effects. Video quality is a bit crap, it’s not recorded with my usual camera… I broke it. *cries*

Did your alternative care know how to read the iris of your eye?….Did your dietitian advise you to eat ANYTHING but REAL food (no preservatives or additives, no hormones or grain-fed meat or poultry (should be grass-fed), no sugar substitutes except herbs like stevia?….I appreciate your efforts on this site, but it hasn’t convinced me that America should become socialist like “everywhere else” as you say….We’re the last wobbly leg holding off the New World Order.
I have been sent to alternative care and it has been covered by my government. I’ve been sent to dietitians to fix the ADHD (didn’t work, but I tried my best with it). I’ve been to different types of therapy, both medication related and not.
If a public health care system has worked everywhere else, why can’t it work for you guys?
part of the large increase in c-sections is the weight of the mother’s delivering. It is a sad fact that more and more people are obese. And, contrary to popular belief that bigger people would have an easier time – that isn’t the case.
Though there are probably more elective c-sections as well, which is sad, but it happens
I feel for your medical problems but wonder what if alternative care was available to you…My son-in-law spent thousands on tests, then went to alternative PhD who studied his iris and came up with the SAME INFO for a fraction the price, but insurance won’t cover it….I was able to cure my diabetes through simple diet….Gov’ts typically CREATE THE PROBLEM (by not offering or allowing alternative healthcare), then OFFER THE SOLUTION (only AMA, which admittedly kills 500,000/yr.)
I’m Canadian…so no, I don’t know much about American history.
What I do know (and yes it may have a biased spin on it) is that some people in the US have launched attack ads on the Canadian health care system without talking about all the good it does.
And I know my health care system isn’t perfect, but I wouldn’t trade it for private health care – I have too many medical problems to qualify for health insurance.
Emmalene, I’ll tell you what I think is “fearmongering”: Our gov’t lying to us for years on end that War and stimulus packages bring us out of recessions & depressions…Do you STUDY anything?…Do you have any COMMON SENSE?….Our Founding Fathers advised us NOT to intervene in other countries and NOT to have Central Banks (the FED)….Our problems would be so minimal if we had just followed those two things….We would have plenty of money as individuals to share with those less fortunate.
I agree…Our supposed “healthcare” kills 500,000 per year in hospitals & by prescriptions….AMA admits it….They’ve got most Americans so hooked on drugs, it’s pathetic….People are getting cured of diabetes & cancer by alternative ways, but our corrupt media won’t report it…They want us to believe we need surgery (1/2 the births are Cesaerian now—how can that be necessary?….They act like what we eat has nothing to do with it.
If it’s a basic human right, then what about food, clothing & shelter?….I’m shocked you go along with funding wars, I’m not Christian and I don’t believe in that!….I’d rather have my money the gov’t steals so I could help build hospitals like Shriner’s who won’t accept gov’t help…That’s the only kind I respect
Jesus did NOT say for the government to help those who can’t care for themselves, he said for YOU & ME as individuals to do it….Why would Jesus want us to send money to the government so they could waste most of it before it gets to the intended person?????????????If our gov’t hadn’t stolen 95-cents out of every dollar since the 1913 FED, we’d have plenty to help others.
So true..I would add that in the 1930’s Rockefeller used his money & influence to establish colleges with the ONLY power to say who is, or who is not a doctor, while at the same time smearing any alternative or herbal medicine as quackery…Nowadays, if youre cured of diabetes or cancer by an alternative method, our corrupt news media wont report it..Since it’s freely admitted that 500,000 die each year from our “wonderful” hospitals & prescriptions, why would we be afraid of an alternative?
The American Medical Association admits killing 300,000/yr. by hospital negligence (their term!!!)—-.Add 200,000 killed every year by prescription medicine and the total amount is how many would (theoretically) have died if the VietNam War had lasted ONE HUNDRED YEARS!!!!!!! (50,000 died over ten years—do the math)..What kind of track record is that for the healthcare everyone is dying to get?
Netherland & Switzerland, 99% coverage and no public plan, but insurance companies are regulated like utility companies. Taiwan & Singapore have best medical care system in the world, 99% coverage, high quality, NO WAITING, and they are government run with less 5% GDP. Unreasonable premium, preexisting condition exclusion, changing drug formulary, deny treatment, medicare drug GAP for Senior are just plain wrong. Come on my fellow American, let us fix the healthcare for our children sakes!
No i don’t pay for really expensive health care i pay about $125 a month. And i have not been denied anything yet, i have been offered all the stuff i was denied in england.
My aunty had to come to the USA for cancer treatment to get a drug that england deemed to expensive and which ultimately saved her life.
And as for your opinion, you knock every person down saying they are wrong when actually they just have a different opinion than you. Thats not debate. Thats im right and your wrong.
I clearly said that I have an opinion about it but the comments are open for debate… yes I’m fine with debate but I’m still going to express my opinion.
My hubby was denied everything in america so perhaps you pay for really expensive health care
I’m british i had public healthcare there for the past 20 years and being in america for a year my health care is now 100% BETTER than any i recieved in the UK.
Yes its free there but its better quality here.
They don’t deny you drugs because they are not in the budget, they don’t pass you off with less expensive options.
I think its ignorant for you to think that your opinion is the only one and for you to knock down every other person who commented and doesn’t share you opinion.
ur sick >:P
id **** you.
Hahaha, shadow probibly has a tiny ***** which is why he is so angry. Personally, I prefer women who dont spend their lives puking in front of a toilette so they can attract guys like Shadow. The smell of vomit in the afternoons just doesn’t do it for me.
I thought she was really pretty. I agree with your argument completely
that won’t be a bad idea. all i’ll need is money. besides, i didn’t say i prefer twigs; i just stated that you still look chunky ;D
Who cares? The skinny types that you lust after will be old in 20 years and no one will be ‘hot’ then, will they? Guess you’ll have to chase after 20 yrds even when youre 80
i’ll tell you what i think: you’re still a fatass
@ByeByeBelly It is important to note is that the US Congress does not have the power to pass whatever law it thinks is “good for the people”. its power to pass legislation is limited. This is the point missing in the health care debate. Does Congress even have the authority to pass such a bill. Just because a few, or even a majority, may think a piece of legislation is “good for the people” this does not mean Congress has been given the authority under the Constitution to pass the legislation.
