Universal Health Care

Behavioral, Dental, Mental, & Vision Care, are Health Care too. A discussion to move towards treating the whole person not just 1 system of the body or just the symptoms. A plan to offer Universal Health Care for all Ohio Residents.

How I believe we could get Universal Health Care in the State of Ohio PASSED!

In a State where the majority (2/3rds) of our State Legislature is Republican who’s major core belief is “Pro-Life” shouldn’t they be ALL ABOUT Protecting and Caring for the Lives already here? I plan to deliver Pro-Life Republicans with a multi-step approach that slowly gets them realize that ALL life is valuable and deserving of medical care. Health Care is a Basic Human Right!

Step One, Part 1: Provide Free Health Care, Vision, Dental and Behavioral Care for ALL Children, New Born through 19, ending when they turn 20.
Reason 1. ALL Children should have access to care for anything and everything that they might need and it should not matter how much money their parents do or don’t make. Period. Our children are our future! Having a healthy childhood should not be a privilege.
Reason 2. People who have babies should not go into medical debt in order to give birth. Regardless of the situation, whether the pregnant person needs to deliver their baby via c-section or via natural birth, giving birth should not make a family go into debt!
Reason 3. Why put the age cap at 19 for children? Well, because some kids are still in High School at 19 and a lot of 19 year-olds are headed off to college at that time. This would protect them, state-wide, if they got hurt during what is probably most kids’ their first year on their own and away from home.
Sentiment: If you can’t agree to pass legislation that provides all children with health care, do you even really care about kids as much as you claim to?

Step One, Part 2: Provide Free Health Care to All Pregnant People, regardless of whether the pregnancy ends in miscarriage or a healthy baby. This is ALL Health Care Needs, NOT Just Prenatal, Peri-Natal, and Post Partum Care.
Reason 1: In order to have healthy babies, you must have healthy pregnancies. In order to have a healthy pregnancies, you must care for the mother to be or pregnant person!
Reason 2: If you want more children in our society, you must make it safe and financially possible to have babies and children without incurring crippling amounts of medical debt.
Sentiment: While conservative politicians are losing their marbles about the falling birthrates, shouldn’t they want to make it safer, easier, and more financially affordable to have a pregnancy and thus bring more healthy babies into the world to level out the falling birthrates?

Step Two: Provide Free Health Care, Vision, Dental and Behavioral Care to ALL people 45 and younger.
Reason 1: This should be our healthiest, most stable, group of people who are physically capable of having and raising children. If you want more kids in our society, you need to take care of the population of people that are able to have and raise children. A healthy parent is key factor in having healthy children.
Reason 2: Even if people in the 20-45 age bracket aren’t having children, we are the working age group and without this age bracket of people the world doesn’t not function. If you don’t take care of the people who are of age to work, who do the vast majority of all jobs, throughout the entire job market, you have less people in the work force and a less capable and less efficient job force. This will keep the working people healthy and safe, and in the work force.
Sentiment: 20-45 year-olds make the world we know possible. We must take care of them.

Step Three: Provide Free Health Care, Vision, Dental and Behavioral Care to ALL people 45-65 by bringing the State MediCare age down to 45.
