My sister is a nurse working in the emergancy room. She talks about drug addicts that will come in regularly without a penny demanding drugs or "medication" for their "pains" that could easily be illegitamate, things like-they have trouble breathing. The doctors cannot refuse them by law.
The worst is, they are so demanding and they get all this stuff for minor, and in some cases, easily non-existent problems, and they don't even pay for it. She gets people that have made themselves, who live in the streets when they coould get a job if they wanted, or people who could lose major weight by just eating more healthy and less, but instead, they rely on the hospitals to clean them up,give them a bed, food and money.
We are spending so much money on these lazy people/drug addicts, that there is little left for good honest people who bought insurance for legitamate reasons, but who are not getting the care they deserve.
Why is this the way it is?
