About Me
- Ricky Balthrop
- Bedford, Texas, United States
- Once upon a time I was a lawyer, at various times doing corporate and securities work before becoming a lawyer working for a medical company. But one day the Career-Changing Fairy visited me and turned me into a high school teacher. I currently teach Economics (AP and IB) and Statistics at L.D.Bell High School, a suburban public high school in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. What I do is not necessarily something which would be expected of a sane man. But for some odd reason, I like what I do and this gives me a way to do it even more.

I don't know... It's political suicide for a party to actually take that as their stance now that the left media has beat that drum for so long that our health care system is broken... but I think it's CLEAR that our health care system provides the best (go figure) actual health care, or at least it's the most effective (if the objective is living). And being the best, and most effective is going to cost more, I don't know of another country that has people from other nations and other systems flying in to benefit from it's effectiveness. I wouldn't be too upset if we made no, or minimal, changes. I like living, even if it costs more.
ReplyDeleteI think I want to be sitting in the teacher's lounge when there are conversations between you and Mrs. Gibson.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, that won't happen. Mrs. Gibson resigned during the summer to teach dual governemnt for TCC.
ReplyDeleteHis statement that allowing doctors and patients make decisions is the optimal system necessitates a system where everyone can afford to have a doctor independent of insurance, whether government or private. This is just not a reality in this country.
ReplyDeleteWe do not have the most cost-effective healthcare system in the world, nor do we have the most health-effective.
