Illinois Cook County is seeking ways to reduce their budget. Would this advice be the wisest, best ever, safest, humanitarian, way to accomplish the task?
A Chicago Tribune Voice of the People article titled: Cook County’s Health Care Budget, voiced two Doctors concerns of the coming year trimmed down budget.
The Purpose of This Post
Is to relate three ancient wisdom proverbs to how to reduce medical costs by as much as 3.5 billion dollars a year.
King Solomon
By justice a king gives a country stability, but those who are greedy for bribes tear it down. (Proverb 29:4)
When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, people’s hearts are filled with schemes to do wrong. (Proverb 8:11)
7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction. (Proverb 1:9)
What’s My Point?
“Cook County shootings cost taxpayers 2.5 billion a year.”
My point is The County needs to understood and enact the wisdom advice of the above three proverbs to end the folly of the shootings taking place.
In My Opinion
The County Board needs to wise up to understand the wisdom of the above three proverbs written 3000 years ago apply today in Cook County.
The first two proverbs pertain to fears needed by both the County leaders and those using guns.
The third proverb pertains to teaching children in youth the only wisest fear in their lives to guide them on the wisest direction on their paths to prevent them from never “gaining” what is the real purpose and goal and reason they were blessed to have been born.
“What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?” (Mark 8:36)
“Black parents love charter schools and voucher-supported private school vouchers because they teach values, self-respect, and hope. But no, if this option for poor or lower-income parents has more Democrat opposition than ever.”

18 Of a truth, Lord, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the nations, and their countries,
19 And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them. ( Isaiah Chapter 37)

Rudy u Martinka 
use the topic of the moment Rudy, how everyone needs the emergency services, regardless of color race or creed, be inclusive, how gun crime affects everyone in need of a doctor, resources wasted, and suggest, free, primary care health centers, away from the main hospitals, to treat those with gunshot wounds, who are afraid to attend the main hospital, in a nutshell, it might seem weird, but if you put the words on large bill boards around the city of Chicago, the local authorities would work double fast to fix the problem given there is an election on the rise, just a wild idea or two, cheers

Thanks for your comments. Frankly, I believe the politicians and voters cannot understand my message even if was on a million billboards, to help this coming election.
We now have two generations of children who have grown up and have no understanding the advice in the Bible.
Bible meanings need more than Sunday school teachings to be understood, in my opinion..
Until school choice and school vouchers become available, religion will continue to wane in our society.
The saddest part is a generation lives for decades. This means as more and more are not taught to understand the Bible and grow into adults and have children, the more likely adults will ever understand the advice of wisdom and love and care about sending their children to be taught religious valure.
..
In other words, sadly the folly we are now witnessing is going to get worse before it gets better in my opinion.
Regards and goodwill blogging.

it’s been forecast a long time ago, that Faith would wane and that where the thirst is greatest, there will be revivals, perhaps we are all witness’s to these prophetic words, i wouldn’t despair though, there have been trying times for all generations, it’s just that with the current times, the symptoms are been felt in many places, maybe this is what is needed, amen
