Skinned Knees at the Emergency Room

This time some feedback on the topic of socialized medicine that sees things the right way, my way :-)

This from Mary Rybak of Kimball, South Dakota:

I totally agree that when our medicine becomes socialized there will be great and grave mis-use. I have listened to friends who are hospital nurses tell about Medicaid qualifiers who make use of the ER for skinned knees, stubbed toes, ingrown toenails, etc. There are also those who have excellent insurance coverage with just a bare minimum co-pay who habituate the doctors' offices and have had antibiotics prescribed so often for non-bacterial conditions that they now suffer from it. It stands to reason that when a thing is perceived to be "free" it will be abused.
