Presidential Run Truth or Fiction? – XLPharmacy

Here are a few tidbits from an article we read today you might find interesting on Health Care, Medicare, and Immigration, that makes an interesting read. It is not going to be much different in the telling from any political side. The writer might be spitting off about one candidate, but it just made us realize we must look at each candidate very carefully, and be sure we know the issues, and how they might or might not affect each one of us in the future:

Immigration?
Here’s the deal: Come here illegally. Dodge the cops for five years. Then you can get legal status, a path to citizenship, health insurance for your kids and in state tuition at their local state university. Sounds just like the name they gave it, huh? (The SOLVE Act and the DREAM Act)

Health?
It’s been said by a couple of candidates they’d like to cover the 45-50 million uninsured and would leave everybody else's health care insurance in tact. Think about it. If this is done free health coverage to 50 million Americans will drastically increase the demand for all manner of health and hospital care services. The fact that most of those who will be newly covered are illegal immigrants or other people living just below or just above the poverty level indicates an especially high rate of increase in demand for services. But the supply won't go up. There will be no sudden increase in the number of doctors, nurses, or hospital beds.

However, many with heart failure also have erectile dysfunction and the authors reviewed results from a variety of studies in which male patients with congestive heart failure took sildenafil, or Viagra, and found the meditations for both condition can be safely and effectively treated, provided patients are appropriately screened before therapy.
