Realities of the Situation

Alright folks, I have resisted writing anything on some basic realities. This article has forced me to explain something that should come as no surprise. Generally the people making the decisions, HAVE NO CLUE. This may be my anti-authority side coming out, but generally this is true, especially when you are speaking of government, or hell, health care. Lets review both these operations now.

Government: You elect someone. This person was most likely on the debate team, or just very charismatic, and their thoughts run generally along the same lines as yours do. Though when you get right down to it, they may vote on a hundred bills while in office, though they may have specialized knowledge in just a couple. So basically, on many of those bills, they HAVE NO CLUE, except what is told to them, lie or truth...

Health Care: This industry many times is run by business majors. Nothing to bad about that right? What happens to the level of care when you cut a few hours in the nursing staff? Yeah, so it help to have someone who has been on the "front lines" to make some decisions, instead of eliminating their positions. Don't rely on MD's either, they know about as much about actual patient care as a first semester nursing student (AKA when is the last time you saw a doc wipe a patients ass?). Not that they need to, its not their job, but many hospitals will put them in charge of making patient care decisions. In the long run this never turns out good for the patient, though it sometimes works out for the money. That's what happens when someone with NO CLUE is put in a decision making position.
