Why the Truth about Health Care ‘SCREAMS’ at the Liberals - And How They Ignore It
The High costs of health care comes from spending the money from insurance premiums and hospital bills on items that aren’t necessary. The truth about the Government Health Care Bill is that is what the majority of the bill allocates the money to - Czars, Preventative Care, Hospice counselling, Government red-tape, etc. These have nothing to do with paying for surgeries or patient care. Why so many of these Liberals are hearing ’screaming’ is because they already bought this plan without looking at it. Here are the ’screaming’ truths that they are too embarrassed to hear!
1.) It costs too much! - It doesn’t matter what we are spending on other government projects, this bill is a gaping hole in the USS United States! Where as, we paid a premium to the insurance companies to be covered when we get sick and the insurance company would cover the amount we couldn’t, we are going to be our own insurance company. So, we will pay for ALL of the medical bill without having a say what coverage we get!
2.) We will not have a choice participating or not! - Yes, there is a line or to on ‘keep what you have if you wish,’ but you have to choose the Government option if your health care doesn’t meet Government standards! That’s not a choice!
3.) The quality of Health Care WILL deteriorate! - As more and more people switch to the Government option, there will be fewer and fewer supplies(doctors, medicine, beds, time, etc) per covered citizen. Doctors aren’t going to wish to keep caring for more and more patients with an increase in pay, much less with a salary cap(to keep costs down!) There will be no time for proper research, when your patient load is building minute by minute.
4.) It is the responsibility of every American to care for oneself! - Well, doesn’t that sound mean!? Maybe, but when we care for ourselves then care for others, we will be strong enough and wise enough to help others support themselves. We don’t live in the land of the kept or the helpless. Let’s not promote that kind of behaviour by removing those chances from the needy!
Bitter, bitter people resort to name calling and misleading facts to support their cause. Michael Moore, Senator Frank, Nancy Pelosi have all made money from degrading debate issues and refusing to address them by making fun of serious, concrete faults in their plans. The Liberal mindset has had a lot to swallow since Chappaquiddick. They accept their representatives nefarious actions and either have to condemn them or go along with them.
As, they raise their flags from half-staff, in honor of Ted Kennedy, maybe they can raise their standards to condemn the actions of their representatives that they themselves shouldn’t do. Ignoring wrong actions just encourage more people to participate in them.

Right you are, my good man. This whole health discussion is misguided. It has nothing to do with Health Care Reform. It is ALL about Insurance Reform.
We must be honest. The quality and availability of Health Care will depend entirely on the the form of insurance we have. We now have Employer Paid insurance and it is pretty good for the most part. The Progressives want to give us Government insurance, similar to Medicare, Medicaid, VA and Indian Health Service. The case is easily made that these current Government Insurance programs are a major factor in driving up the cost of delivered care for patients with private insurance, along with injury attorneys etc., so why would anyone want to go all the way with another layer???
A better solution would be to go the other way and return to the power of the market (Hijacked by Progressives since WWII). Yes, do away with employer provided insurance. That’s right, have employers take the premiums they now pay to provide insurance and give it to the employees as pay. Then, let employees go out and shop for their own coverage in the market place, like they do for their auto and other insurance.
There are some things that would have to be truly reformed (things progressives won’t like) such as tort and malpractice reform and reforming the availability of private insurance policies across state lines.
There, all done, Obamas’ Socialized Insurance..poopoo!

Is that like wee..wee!? lol (what can you expect from a man-child)
Do you think we’ll get a larger paycheck with Obamacare? He is for the little guy you know!

Ho No Bro, under KOCare (KennedyObamacare) Paychecks in the mirror will be much smaller than they appear.

good post —- I would love to debate somebody about the need to “reform” health care. In the abstract, it is vodoo economics purporting to provide cheaper health care at the same quality with nobody getting hurt or paying for it. The realities include:
1- health care in America is very good
2- we live longer
3- we get all of the high quality care we want
4- it is not as expensive as poor quality and no care
5- for these benefits we pay what the market dictates.
These pro-government wack jobs can’t deliver cadillac health care at VW prices - just ain’t gonna happen

I never understood the term voodoo economics. The whole principle was that when people have more money to spend the country creates wealth. Example, gas prices fell over the weekend. Why? Selling MORE cheaper gas brings in more money than selling LESS cheaper gas.
I don’t know what aspect of voodoo, HW was refering to…maybe, this is why he didn’t get the nomination.

BTW, the old Cadillac reference might be changing in meaning. But who is better Fiat or Opal????

“It is the responsibility of every American to care for oneself!”
Then you would agree to ban Insurance companies and you libertarians can pay as you go. It’s wrong to spread out the cost to others, RIGHT? Then you can be afflicted with a really expensive thing that consumes every asset you have and you can then beg for your life to the others that will now start paying for your treatment. I vote no in your case.

No! You don’t ban something because you don’t like it! You work things out, Popalot!
I guess, I always vote for choice. That’s where we differ.
