Americans hate to be told what to do!  How many times has a patient walked into your office and told you that they saw a commercial on TV and they want a specific drug?  Or they self-diagnosed themselves on the internet and they just need a referral.  Even owning your own practice you can’t get away from being told what to do.  And we play nice until it is time to not play nice.  After all, you are the one with the medical degree, if you could get a doctorate on Google for $19.95 every 19 year old in their parents basement would be treating cancer.  

Now imagine that the government created the Kool-Aid Committee.  And this committee’s only purpose was to make the American public drink one glass of grape Kool-Aid every day.  Would you drink the Kool-Aid?  Sounds harmless right?

Well the government has already created the Kool-Aid Committee  It is called Mandatory Health Insurance.  It requires every American to have health insurance “if they can afford it” or they will be provided a voucher if they cannot.  It also requires employers with over 50 employees to offer insurance.
