Good points. Well said and very true.

View of a Young Doctor

If you doubt any part of what Dr. Jones says, go visit your local hospital emergency room as an observer for an hour or so some Friday or  Saturday
night.

See how many responsible people you can send this to!

Pictured below is a young physician by the name of Dr. Starner
Jones. His short two-paragraph letter to the White House accurately puts the blame on a “Culture Crisis” instead of a “Health Care Crisis.” It’s worth a quick read:

Dear Mr. President:

During my shift in the Emergency Room last night, I had the pleasure of

evaluating a patient whose smile revealed an expensive shiny gold tooth,

whose body was adorned with a wide assortment of elaborate and costly

tattoos, who wore a very expensive brand of tennis shoes and who chatted

on a new cellular telephone equipped with a popular R&B ringtone.

While glancing over her patient chart, I happened to notice that her payer status

was listed as “Medicaid”! During my examination of her, the patient informed me

that she smokes more than one costly pack of cigarettes every day and somehow

still has money to buy pretzels and beer.

And, you and our Congress expect me to pay for this woman’s health care?

I contend that our nation’s “health care crisis” is not the result of a shortage of

quality hospitals, doctors or nurses. Rather, it is the result of a “crisis of culture,”

a culture in which it is perfectly acceptable to spend money on luxuries and vices

while refusing to take care of one’s self or, heaven forbid, purchase health

insurance. It is a culture based on the irresponsible credo that “I can do

whatever I want to because someone else will always take care of me.”

Once you fix this “culture crisis” that rewards irresponsibility and dependency,

you’ll be amazed at how quickly our nation’s health care difficulties will

disappear.

Respectfully,

STARNER JONES, MD

If you agree…pass it on.
