Don't tax my care

Posted: January 31, 2013 - 7:28pm

Please everyone write a letter to your state representatives and state senators concerning the governor wanting to place a tax on everyone’s chiropractic care.

Insurances are enough to deal with concerning their chiropractic limits and what insurances have for their deductibles. I for one chiropractic patient feels this tax is a cost chiropractic patients do not need, nor do the chiropractic doctors need for more paperwork.

Chiropractic care has gotten me out of wheelchair, off crutches and the life I am able to live is all a continuous thank you to the wonderful caring chiropractic doctors I have, as the one I did have and the almost 20 years I’ve had, has been without pain medications.

I deal with fibromyalgia from injuries that had me a prisoner to my home, so useless, so hopeless, until the right chiropractic care was found for me. How lucky I am it’s been here in this area.

I truly believe the governor needs to be educated about chiropractic care as so many people do. It’s not only about back pain but a whole load of symptoms the spine, muscles and nerves can cause and takes time for the muscles to get the strength to do their job and do their jobs correctly and the nerves relaxed. Ignorance has to stop.

It is absolutely horrible the suffering there is when people can’t afford chiropractic care and when they can’t find any doctor to help. This has to stop.

Please help.

Pat , Do the math on reducing the sales tax on other spending...

Or maybe your not buying that part of the Mittsters grand plan " reduce the rate & broaden the base".( Dont ever forget -" Corporations are people my friend " )
Gov Dayton is trying to cater to all the republicon great ideas.

liberals always manage to

liberals always manage to confound me ... you're blaming an individual who didn't win the election instead of the people who did?

Let me guess, your statement is witty and filled with high-brow commentary on social condition, not dumb.

Mr. Cap

Yes, Cap, this person is laying out their medical problems and how they have been helped. You like to bring politics and sarcastic remarks which doesn't help. She has a legitimate complaint and is frustrated. Not only would this
hurt the patients but, the chiro office would have more paperwork collecting the tax, filling out the paperwork, and sending the check in. Don't be late and don't make a mistake or you will be fined.

Maybe Dayton is trying to solve a problem where there is none. So he is trying to lower the sales tax rate while extending what is taxed? I hope he has some good advisors.

Unbalanced One , Think you may need some new material

Try to focus on the subject . ( SALES TAXES).

Your chanting may impact your covens get togethers ,
however Im afraid your senseless ranting does NOT bring much to the party.

I guess you were not a member of Sr Gals for Mittster klan and dont support that " concept" of a broader tax base ?

Lil'Cappy

I, to say. WOW! You are the epitome of someone that needs to be ignored and pittied as irrelevant. Just another example of someone who can't seem to move on.

You "conservatives" make me laugh.

Captron, or Southie, Scaryphailin, et al, posts almost anything and your little girl panties end up in a wad stuck so high up you're screaming about the lump in your throat!

The O.P. found relief at a Chiropractor. I'm glad.

What we're really arguing about is whom should be exempt from paying their share of the tax burden. Is health care a fundamentally different service industry than any others? People can, and do, elect to ignore their health, just like they can, and do, ignore other things to avoid the expense.

Take the emotion out of it, please.
