Oh boy, here we go. Isn't most medicare administration done by private industry? OK, I understand throwing the whole Magilla at you is a little overwhelming. Let's start with the two points above. People don't want the "government" tell them what to do... As if private health insurance doesn't wield that sword? Have you been paying attention to all the folks who are dropped, can't get the companies to cover claims, taking forever to reimburse? To your second point. Most medicare processing is done by private industry. Are you suggesting using prison labor or Haitians? As I said, when you can do an intelligible response get back to us. |

All you folks who hate your fellow Americans and don't think it's worth the investment have my sympathy. One lone Republican voted for it. 39 Democrats opposed. That ****es me off.

But I suspect when people take the time to read, this is a hidden tax grab. Get the cash flow to the government and then turn down survice levels while they skim the moneys. The polls are very clear in that Americans want health care reform. Haley Barbour was on Meet the Press today insisting the majority of Americans don't want health care reform.

Oh boy, here we go. Isn't most medicare administration done by private industry? And ramming through a "healthcare reform" bill in a short time in the back room and then voting on it less than 3 days later, leads to those ****ED UP laws that the unintended consequences are worse than the cure. The Feds should be working on creating sustainable jobs, cutting spending and curing a depression first. Don't you think keeping people solvent who might otherwise be swamped by medical costs is a good investment? Perhaps it's not the first consideration in getting us back on our economic feet but it's up there. Did President Bush focus only on invading Iraq or was he also working on making the Chinese-funded tax cuts for US rich permanent? jps, you seem to be a one trick pony. Everything is fubar because Bush invaded the Middle East. Ain't so, and until you can come up with resonable debates: kiss my ass! I find it difficult to find one thing that Bush did with actual compassionate results. Perhaps the Africa AIDS program, but even that was messed up. -- Nom=de=Plume I stated that jps believes all the crap is Bush's fault. Everything was perfect before Bush 2. Except We are still spending money in Bosnia, look what a fine place Clinton left Somalia. Bush was not the one who signed the bill to let banks be brokerage houses. Something that had worked well after the 1929 crash. I hope you did better reading on your patent searches. The Plum wants to know what "Bush did with actual compassionate results". ?????????? |

That isn't really that bad. 2.381,264 died with health care! Statistically they may actually be doing the best. (total dead 2,426,264 source CDC) http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/FASTATS/deaths.htm It's pretty bad. In fact, lowering costs includes removing some of the things that cause the errors that contribute to that total. You gave us a BS statistic. what is 47,000? the number of dead who didn't have insurance? (that is a 42,000,000 pool if you believe the current buzz) If so the difference in outcome between them and the 2.23 million who died with insurance is within the margin or error in numbers like this. The point is people die, with insurance or not. If medical insurance only contributes a couple percent to your chances, it is vastly overrated. If you want to start analysing those 47000 deaths and find out how many came in DOA from accidents, gunshots, drug ODs and other mayhem we might even close that gap. I'm sorry if you don't believe the Mayo Clinic's estimate. I didn't deny the statistic. I only ask what is in it (how did these people die) and point out it is statistically insignificant in the 2.4 million deaths annually anyway. It is about the same outcome you have from the insured. Saying being uninsured killed 47000 people means about as much as saying living in California killed 257,000 people last year. I think you need to look at the methodology.. -- Nom=de=Plume |

Perhaps the Africa AIDS program, but even that was messed up. The AIDS in Africa actually was pretty successful. I am not sure that is any more messed up than anything we ever did in Africa. It was sure better than Clinton's Somalia or Sudan adventures. Not sure what Somalia/Sudan conflicts have to do with the AIDS program, but whatever. Just a comparison on the two presidents experiences in Africa. It was highly restrictive and promoted abstinence as the only for of prevention. There was also a lot of money for treatment and pressure on drug companies to provide cheap drug cocktails. Yes, that was the good part for sure. -- Nom=de=Plume |
