Bruce You can fire them, up until Obama signs it into law. *Then you are forced to have insurance or accept government health care. Too bad, you're forced by Obama to pay someone you hate. Right now, I have no choice *anyway* - if I don't pay installments to some bloodsucking insurer, I run the risk of my family - both of whom have highly treatable preexisting conditions - dying needlessly. *If Obama and I really had our way, the government-run single payer option - used VERY successfully by numerous more civilized nations around the world - would obviate the need to pay any private for-profit company whose sole goal is to milk me out of money and support me as little as possible in my time of need. You go to them they don't come to you. *You get out your wallet freely, but Obama wants to hold a gun to your head. I don't especially care if you like the government option or not - the proof is in the pudding, and the substantial majority of people I have If you want to live in France/Canada.... *then just do it. spoken with from those nations have good cause to believe that their systems work well. *Many cannot believe the barbaric system we are still stuck with here in the States. I have an English Girlfriend..... * they don't like or get good health care, her girlfriend died 20 years ago, killed by the National health care who didn't tell her she had stomach cancer until it was too late.... * she came here to America and the doctors said that, had she only come here earlier, it was treatable. That's your good government care. Nice and pretty, and her name was Chris. Bruce- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text -- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Well, that's one. *To set and match it - my Dad, depending on US medicine, did not know he had stomach cancer until it was too late, thanks to 40 years of inept Americam medicine. Another - my Mom had cancer for three years, died of it, and the doctors never did figure out what kind of cancer it was! * So don't give me any bull**** about the British medical system failing its patients - the US fails as often if not more, and the life expectancy in the UK, despite what can only be described as a horrible diet, is a year longer than the US. Same with about 30 other nations who all have socialized medicine. We ourselves spend a good deal of time wondering if my wife's asthma is going to be effectively treated next month or year. *Something they do not fear in Britain. I have plenty of stories from Brits who would not trade their system for the third-world system we have in the States. *People with chronic diseases and disabilities, people who have immediate problems in their homes, get medical attention when they need it, day or night, at their homes, and they pay not a penny OOP. *They have plenty of $$$ for travel, hobbies, nice homes and fun. Bruce I happen to know a fellow (a co-worker) who took a job in one of offices in England. He's a former Army officer, a hard-over right winger. He had a heart attack while in England and gave himself over to the British medical system. He never had a bad word to say about it. His treatment was good, the doctors and nurses caring and professional and the hospital -- if a bit old -- was clean. It was also cheap and he didn't have to bicker with an insurance company about what was covered. |

This bill may not be perfect, but... 1) The current medical system is definitely broken. 2) Most people are only one pink slip away from needing the health care this bill provides...and we all know that there has been a blizzard of pink slips over the last few years. |

It'll be something to see if this 'really' benefits everyone and the ones they love. That's what I'm worried about, I worry about my parents. |

I don't know how old you are, but if you can swing it, the AARP long term health care insurance is a bargain, if you need it. My mother had it and it was a lifesaver, paying for 3 years of assisted living that I had no possible way to pay for. I'm getting it for myself, since you never know.... Could you give a few more details on the AARP insurance, BDK? I'm retired and taking care of my mom who may need just what your mom did. Just tell where to look and I'll do the legwork. Thankyou. nb |

Thankyou. nb This site should get you started: http://www.aarphealthcare.com/ If you can, sign up ASAP, so it will be all in effect before when/if she has to go someplace, as it takes a while to get rolling. The plan she had paid about $3000 a month for 3 years. That $100,000 or so it paid made everything tolerable. I just couldn't have taken care of her anymore, and if she had still been here when I hurt my knee, it would have been a total trainwreck. It pretty much was anyway, but it could have been a lot worse.. Good luck. -- BDK, leader of the non-jew, non-existant jew paid shills! |

That married Irish woman wayyyy over yonder across the big pond in
Bognor Regis,England, she is part Irish, part British by Ancestry. Her dad lives in Bognor Regis too.A few years ago he went to Limerick,Ireland to visit some relatives and friends.His doctor in Bognor Regis had told him it was ok for him to travel.As soon as he got to Limerick, he wound up in Dooradoyle hospital in Limerick.His prostate gland had swollen up and was just about to bust, nearly killed him.The surgeons at Dooradoyle hospital saved his life.They were amazed that his doctor in Bognor Regis had told him it was ok for him to travel. I still have the email letter she sent me, telling me all about it. You think socialized health care is good for America? You haven't seen anything yet! cuhulin |
