Obama's Health Insurance Plan is gaining national attention but it has many people up in arms and is now even producing death threats directed at those law makers who pushed through the plan a few days ago. For those who have serious health issues, the unemployed, uninsured and young adults this plan has a lot to offer. For those who have good insurance and benefits the insurance plan threatens to raise insurance premiums and serve them no benefits. Perhaps this is the problem.

If a charitable donation write off were offered to offset the certain impending premium rate hikes, would this take wind out of the fight? Would this give the needed incentive to pay more without question? Would it stop the finger pointing at those living in their midst who they perceive to be lazy or just wanting hand outs. Medical debts is one of the top reasons people file bankruptcy. A growing number of Americans are dying every year because of the out of reach health care they need. Millions are sent to other nations without question; while a different message is sent to our own neighbors, that we will put up a fight to NOT provide health care for the needy among us. Something seems to be wrong with this picture.

While not being able to write off the premium increase as a charitable donation might be reason enough in their mind to get fighting mad, it might not be the most important reason. If a government and its law makers are never challenged in their unconstitutional decisions, corrupt laws will never be challenged. This safety net forces the powerful to repeal, rethink and revise any changes John Q. Public views as corrupt and unconstitutional.

The majority of the people in this country will likely benefit form this new Health Care Plan, even if the complaining increases or seems justified. Back before the economic downturn, people were in constant struggle with their quest for health care. The downturn forced many to give up and loose hope. The true scope of struggle most Americans face while finding, affording and keeping dependable vital health care has yet to be truly realized.

Americans are notorious for fighting against unfair and unjust practices. This is especially true if it involves money where the already rich or corrupt law makers stand to benefit the most. But a much closer look at this issue might reveal this is not the case. Maybe this time the government is actually leveling the playing field to help those among us who are sick, less fortunate and struggling with their very survival. Most people will change their outlook when they slow down and take a second, longer, closer look around their neighborhood. This forces them to look beyond their small part of the whole much bigger picture and refocus on a change if needed, for the betterment of all.
