The medical industry is going to change in major ways. Local governments will be making deep cuts in funding schools, programs, and agencies. New York State alone faces an $18 billion deficit. This means that we will all have to face reality.
With limited resources every person cannot have quality treatment. We will be forced to spend what resources we have on the most deserving among us. The brightest children will receive an education. The dim thinkers will receive some training or apprenticeships. People with terminal, irreversible illnesses will not receive the most care that hospitals can give. Large churches may have to combine. Small churches will disappear altogether.
Programs that we all take for granted will now vaporize. We will all be wise to create survival kits equipped with: batteries, candles, matches, small radios, canned goods, first aid kits, tents, etc. Emergency services will not show up. Learn all you can about home remedies because neighborhood clinics will be dead to us.
Reality is standing above us like a wave of a tsunami. We are on our own now. We have to regain that communal spirit if we are to survive this national down turn.
