Of course that will mean that we turn over a huge part of the economy to the government bureaucracy, jack up our taxes and screw up our existing system. More than that, the lefties will expect to pass a monstrosity of a bill without reading it or making it public. Do you think that even ONE of the lefties read the cap and trade legislation before voting in favor? If health care is so important, its important to think carefully about the change and have a wide ranging debate, not Pelosi and Reid jamming an unread, ill considered bill down our throats.<br /><br />The second of the liberal talking points is that Fox is conservative and MSNBC is liberal. Of course they are trying to position NPR, NY Time, WAPO, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MNI and the LA Times as mainstream arbiters of truth and reason. this is a load of crap that all of us to read or watch any of these outlets knows to be false.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-31661923702607320162009-07-02T16:38:57.678-07:002009-07-02T16:38:57.678-07:00There is a good study out about why some working p...There is a good study out about why some working people do not have health insurance. It is because they are on the ‘Cafeteria Plan’ and they choose what they want for their benny package, and a long vacation trumps health insurance. <br /><br />Also, Obama may be counting the illegal aliens as people without health insurance. Emergency rooms are closing because illegal aliens are using them instead of a family doctor.<br /><br />We have seen many times already the that the Democrats will tax and spend the people in the USA until it is no longer the country we knew, the national debt will put us asunder.<br />Socialism defined: <br />Everyone is equally poor!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-5437676651511306542009-07-02T16:28:34.747-07:002009-07-02T16:28:34.747-07:00Tort reform will never happen as long as the congr...Tort reform will never happen as long as the congress is full of failed attorneys. Starting at the top! They will never take money away from the John Edwards type ambulance chasers. Attorneys make money fighting the pharmaceutical companies as the bad guys, and yet who brings us the cures for cancer, diabetes, and other super-expensive healthcare expenses? Now the Democrats say they want Government funds to fund medical science at colleges. Good grief, that will be taxpayers’ money down the drain.

More than 40 million Americans don't have health insurance, but not necessarily because they can't afford it. Some choose not to buy it; some are just between jobs and will get it again as soon as they get a new job; some (many) are illegal aliens who shouldn't be here in the first place and who for damn sure should not be insured by any taxpayer-funded system.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-81616047923080761352009-07-02T15:54:20.849-07:002009-07-02T15:54:20.849-07:00The issue is why are those days gone and how can w...The issue is why are those days gone and how can we retrieve them and my point is that government is the reason our health care costs so much, not an avenue to lowering those costs.<br /><br />Another recollection I have is of John Major bragging that they had gotten things so streamlined in England that you could get your heart surgery done in just six months. Six months! and he thought that was good, and it probably was for their crappy system.<br /><br />Are there problems under the current system? Yes, most of them caused by the government. <br /><br />WIll the government solve the problem of the family in the auto accident? Maybe, maybe not. What we do know is that a lot of people with very solvable problems are going to die waiting for services to find out. Lots of folks who are very irresponsible are going to cause someone else who has been very responsible to die because our healthcare will be determined by a government agency with all of the compassion of the IRS and the efficiency of the post office.

My lunch was over, and I had some work to do.<br />It's weird seeing that some of you wish I were unemployed -- and none of you know me at all.<br />Anyway, back to health care.<br />I agree that tort reform is needed -- and the quicker the better.<br />I do believe that people in our modern age -- especially as we hold life sacred from the moment of conception -- are entitled to some level of health care. I especically believe that children are entitled to health care. If children are entitled to life, than we adults must admit that they're also entitled to health care that will allow them to keep their life.<br />Picture a teen mother foregoing an abortion and having her baby -- but the baby not getting any medical care after birth. That is what is happening right now.<br />So.... where does that leave us?<br />Any health care system is one of rationing. <br />I appreciate John's recollection of his father paying his doctor. Those days are long gone.<br />I had my appendix out several years ago, and the surgeon's bill for this fairly simple procedure was $11,000. There were other bills for anesthesia, antibiotics and a 14-hour hospital stay. The total bill was about $16,000. I make about $55,000 a year.<br />I can only imagine the financial impact of cancer, heart disease or even a child born with special needs.<br />Looking at the latest figures, more than 40 million Americans can't afford medical insurance. Companies are losing tons of revenue -- and a competitive edge over overseas companies -- over employee health care.<br />This health care dilemma will not go away -- even if some of us wish it would. <br />I have met too many people who have lost their life savings to a car accident or cancer or some other medical emergency. We, as a society, cannot talk about the sanctity of unborn life -- and then deny many people health care. Life is important from conception to the very end.<br />Thanks for listening....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-21346435440782205202009-07-02T14:17:54.237-07:002009-07-02T14:17:54.237-07:00Wow, now 2:03pm, that's the post of the year ....<i>Wow, now 2:03pm, that's the post of the year . . . or at the least, post of the day.</i><br /><br />Assuming you're being serious, thanks.<br /><br />We CAN have "affordable" health care. In fact, we have it NOW: You can get whatever you can afford.<br /><br />We CAN have quality health care. In fact, we have it NOW: Any medical technology that's available, you can get it here in the US.<br /><br />BUT there is probably no such thing as "affordable" quality healthcare, if you define "affordable" as "I don't have to pay anything for it" and "quality" as "the most advanced medical technology will be available to me simply for the asking".<br /><br />Obama's health care plan is nothing more than a Communist health system: Everyone gets whatever they need (as long as we haven't used up our quota yet) and EVERYONE shares the bill. Those of us who are naturally healthy are going to end up paying to cover the poor health of others, and that's a load of crap.<br /><br />The proper solution starts with government staying the hell out of the health care business.
