My opinions on Health Insurance

This may get a little heavy here. I've been hearing people whine and complain about issues with health insurance for a while now. Of course there is the whole thing regarding its situation in america and then there is my personal issues regarding health insurance. I think much of the construct of the modern society we live in is based on fear. This issue is certainly a ripe example. People don't want to die, right? They don't want to be sick, right? Well, if they knew how to live properly they wouldn't die or get sick. At least as often. This should be further developed upon. But you can see the fear here. Since, people have relatively no idea how to live healthily because they are bombarded with stimulation telling them to eat crappy food and so forth, they wind up getting sick. Because thy don't know otherwise this creates ignorance and therefore fear. This is were the insurance companies step in. They come in and charge people a bunch of money for some 'peace of mind.' I'm not even going to address the current screwed up development of the sales of insurance, I am only talking about insurance as a whole.

I should probably tell you something else here that greatly feeds into my opinions and philosiphy. I beleive wholeheartedly in reincarnation. But not in the way that Buhddists do. At least, some buhddists, beleive that living a human life is precious because chances are you will not be human again next time. So charish human life. I come from another standpoint, that you have probably lived at least ten human lives already and chances are if you die you will be human again so it is not so important. I think society today values life far too much. Or maybe the situation is a little more complicated than that. Portions of our society value life while others completely disregard it.

Anyway in the medical community in particular there is a disgrusting grasping at human life. All the people have to live at any cost! Nonsense! they hook old people up to machines and keep them breathing and heavily medicated for as long as possible. Just let 'em die I say. If someone gets sick and can't afford medicine? Let 'em die. I understand that hardly anyone on this planet is going to be able to understand this concept because it is much too spiritual and detached. People live crude existances where they get very emotionally attached to their cats and relatives and so forth. That is fine, I do too. But I also know I will meet them again. You have to look at the big picture. Maybe someone is meant to die. If People can't take care of themselves, and they get in situations which make them sick than that is their fault. I should like it if true health was more readily available, but unfortunately medical industry has such a hold on things that if you mess with it too much they're gonna mess you up. They are greedy and care mostly about making profits and less about if someone is well.

Anyway, here might be the most important part. Connection to supreme consciousness. This is another way of saying God I suppose. It is the beautiful substance that isn't substance. It is the beginning of all that is and all that isn't It is a perfect paradox and also defies paradox. Obviously this "God thing" is very tricky to describe. But I tell you that when you focus your mind on it(and it can be painful) bad habits slough off and your beingness begins to shine. I'm not talking about God in the Christian sense. A more universal something. Not a person. It is the everything and nothing at once. The divine spark. This is my insurance.
