Health Care in America

There is a little joint in San Pedro California that will give you a complete physical for $125.00. There is one little stipulation, but it is not a big one. I went there last time, and it cost me $125.00 total. The first time I had a physical, it cost about $500.00. When I went back there two years later, they said prices had gone up, and it would probably cost twice as much. That is when I went to the clinic in San Pedro. I tried to get another physical today, but after waiting almost a month for the appointment, the doctor looked at my employment sheet and recommended I go to an Urgent Care facility. Seems he could not do the chest X-ray, the blood work, the EKG, or any of the requirements for an employment physical. Why was I there? Why had I gone through the appointment process, waited, showed up, filled out the necessary paperwork, to be told by the doctor he could not fulfill the services I had requested a month earlier? With three weeks to go before the job starts, I am in a race against the United States Health Care system. I am not impressed. In fact, it may keep me from getting a job. America rocks! Not.
