Insurance, employer or church

Who gets to decide? When did the doctor who went to school for. Exactly this, stop being able to decide what your medical needs were? It seems to me the last person who should be deciding what treatments you need it should be your insurance or your employer or your church. The treatment you need should be based upon your decisions made with the input of your doctor or doctors. I don't want to pick on members of religious groups to make that choice to use birth control that's a personal choice but when you behave like a hypocrite and you are using those birth control tools and stating it's for a different reason then what's the difference between that and saying I'm using medical marijuana for pain and you saying that I'm just a pothead? ( I'm not actually a pothead nor do I smoke pot), I'm pro legalizing it, but honestly I take enough meds without adding issues.

For that matter what if pot, was better for me, managed my pain, stopped my muscle spasms, and was not nearly as addictive or had the side effects of the other medications I'm taking? Why would it be wrong? It seems to me like it would be the healthiest option? And I live in the state of California where we have passed; in fact we were the first state to pass the medical marijuana act and yet the federal government seems to believe that they have the right to decide on this issue that they're the ones to get to make the decision. I'm really curious as to how about that works so please look at my post on the Fed versus the state because I will be talking about that shortly. Anyway wonks story short my question remains do I want my insurance company my employer on my church deciding what medical treatments I need or are allowed when that really should be a question only answerable by myself and my doctor and the laws of the land. What yeah we had somebody become the president who is a member of the Church of science who believed that sickness was a judgment by God and banned all medical assistance how would we react to that question. I mean you have to ask that.

Anyway just some quick thoughts some questions maybe something to think about and we can talk about it later tomorrow when I have a chance to really get into this subject on my next post thanks be well I hope you're enjoying reading all of this
