A Survey Thingy

[sanacrow]

If anyone currently residing in the US would be willing to fill out a sociology questionnaire for a starving college student, would you please either reply with the answers to the following, or send your answers to sanacrow at foocatz dot com.

No personally identifying information is collected or used. If you chose to respond via email, your response will only be seen by myself and my 3 project partners. The aggregate data will be used in a paper and presentation for our current events sociology class.

Thank you!!

Sana, I'm not sure if those last few questions are what you're looking for - my religion tells me I should have my own opinions, is that ok? or are you looking for the reverse on that? I'm confuddled and on congestion medication and so easily muddled.

Comments:
- No contraception needs due to monogamous relationship and hysterectomy.
- No requirement for individual health insurance due to a) prolonged exposure to the insurance industry and distaste for their practices, b) believing that only a single payor system will cure the problems, and c) having seen too many times how the payor source will shape and limit one's medical options. In short, 'for profit' medicine and 'for profit' insurance companies are totally immoral for the same reasons.

Similar. Health insurance is axiomatically a scam. One can't bet that one won't need health care.
