Our kids and grandkids will be the true victims if we do not change the process and system NOW.

The same with Social Security. The same with rising Taxes. The same with social morality deteroriation - or rising social acceptance (whichever side you see it from)

2) they are just plain ignorant to the facts, would rather believe the hype that a true universal healthcare would hurt us, and choose to laugh at everyone else's "misfortune" because those people weren't as prepared as they are, plus it's only the poor affected

True Universal Healthcare hasn't done much for Canada. It is not the idea that people should be helped that "they" are fighting. It is the realistic view that "life sucks, and there is only so much we can do, lets not make a system that would take away the good things about our society, like individual freedom of choice, and the free market."
It's only the poor that are affected? Is that just your opinion, or are there statistics or studies behind there, somwhere.
It COULD happen to ANYONE. The world could end tomorrow. And, to point out the futility of it all, we are all going to die anyway. I like it when everything is in a realistic perspective that way.

There are those who fight against change, and yet they have no true excuse except for greed.

Do you equate greed with entreprenurial ambitions?

And are we to call ourselves a truly civilized nation if we deny true medical treatment not just emergency services to those who need it?

I would refute that Doctors need to eat to, and because everyone who got free or government sunsidized health care is busy suing them they are not having such an easy time of it.

The funny thing is the party that espouses God and Christianity so loudly are the ones that Christ would expose for using others misery to make their fortunes. If need be I'll quote chapters and verses wher Jesus condemns people for such actions...... and yet the party that supposedly is built for him, the Neocons who want the Christians to believe what they are selling so they wave and thump the Bible for them...... are the ones leading them away from God's will.

Do you expect Christians to be perfect? I say then that you ask to much of mere mortals.
The conservative movement is built for God? News ot me.
NeoCons have their opinions, same as liberals, and there are devout Christians on both sides. I would ask, why bring Christianity into a matter of economics and political reform.
If I had to guess (and this is mearly a matter of opinion) you are in a situation that you did not expect. It is tragic. It is costing you dearly - not only in resources, but in emotions and daily life as well. You are angry. You see the people who are billing you for your medical expenses as being unmerciful. You see the system as choosing to screw you over by its inherant nature.
If that is the case there is no help for you. You said at the start that you work hard to put yourself through school. If at all possable, don't cease that. Don't cease trying to understand the world God has put before you. Don't become so wrapped up in bitterness that you demand everyday that society change because you were hurt.
Rather stretch yourself. Adapt and overcome. Having been through this fire you will know no end to your personal growth if you can just keep your eye on what is important.
I disagree with your solution to your problem, for it is your problem we are discussing here, not societies. We are all self-interested people. Something only matters to us when it affects us "close to home". The solution to your problem lies within you and how you coose to work in the system that you are presented with.
Understand, I am not apathetic. I have no idea what you are going through, personally, but understand its traumatic and life changing nature. I have nothing but hopes and good prayers for you. Good Luck.
