This will be a series of threads. Since many years now, I was wondering and still do, that if people sitting in govt and high offices are not working and straitening basic functions of state and administration, then what actually they are doing? So, may be they are out of Ideas, and let us, the PDF, supply them with basic ideas, on how to do things. Lets get started with with our first topic. I will talk in layman language, so if somebody wants to contribute in more technical language he/she is more than most welcome.
Average employed Pakistani gets either some money in terms of medical allowance or "Free Medical" for self and family, or both. This too, becomes so limited when someone is employed with a private firm. And this becomes non-existent when someone is self-employed. So, you might have heard people calling for help when they are in medical emergency. Similarly, poor and rich, both "enjoy" different level of medical facilities, and often elite of Pakistan goes to London for medical treatment and poor is left unassisted.
But govt can enforce yet another system, that will ensure that everyone in the country is medically ensured and is treated properly. We can bring in big giants, who will collect the medical allowances of each individual, and in return will provide medical coverage for whole of the family. (a family is : Employee, his/her parents, his/her spouse, and their individual/combined children). For self-employed people, their should minimum income surety from the govt, and hence some minimum fixed amount that they will pay in terms of medical insurance. In that way, we will streamline many many issues all at once.
(Readers input here is highly appreciated).
Second issue is Pension. In Pakistan, govt pays Pension only to the ex-govt employees. The issue is, why only govt employees? The non-govt-ex-employees were also paying taxes for whole of their lives. What about them? So. its better to make a single pension policy for all the people working in Pakistan. If they paid tax for certain period of time, whether they were doing business, or were employed with govt or private sector, then they must be entitled for pension(according to the taxes they paid, including depreciation or money devaluation).

Will keep posting other topics in same series.
In last some words for general awareness. When govt doesn't care for people, people leave their country. That's the reason, when a soldier, who stands at boarder for whole of his life, the one, who has many bullet marks on his body, presented his chest bravely for all the bullets that were meant to enter Pakistan, that very soldier also leaves Pakistan after retirement, and lives in Europe with his children for their safety and prosperity.
Care for people, they are your best allies, and all humans have same basic nature. Everyone demands care. And that's the reason why Europe and USA are so dominant on this world: They care for their people.
@blueazure Can you please shed some light how these health insurance companies work, and how we can bring home grown(ADAMJEE or JUBILEE) or companies from abroad.
