Important Health Care Announcement...

Mayo Clinic (Glendale, AZ) announced today that they will
no longer accept future Medicare patients, etc...

...Jim Thompson

Was listening to the radio today. I think that it was the
substitute for Rush Limbaugh...
They mentioned the Amish communities that put aside a cash
reserve for health care. When someone needs medical care
(at a hospital), they negotiate a cash price rate. This
rate is substantially lower than the normal insurance
rate.

What does this say about another layer of middlemen and
bureaucrats that would only further raise the costs of
care when government gets involved?

Obama care aside. It is pretty pathetic that insurance as
it is increases the care provider's costs so. A while
back I needed to get an orthotics device (drop foot
brace) for my wife. Surgical supply store quoted
something like $275. I balked but took out my checkbook.
The owner thought a minute and reduced the price by
almost 50% since I paid 'cash' and he wouldn't have to
wait for reimbursement.

It's probably been mentioned before, but this graphic from
that well-known lefty marxist rag, National Geographic
(*National*, get it? How much more of an admission of a
socialist -- or National Socialist -- agenda is needed?
Scary stuff!) is pretty telling:

The problem with simplistic graphs and explanations is
precisely that they're baby talk simplistic.

For example, one of the reasons for the "unneeded
treatment," as they put it, is ass covering for law suits
due to the "absolute liability" principle U.S. courts have
placed on the system.

No such thing has occurred.

My bad, I meant strict liability.


"Government"
healthcare sure does solve that 'problem' because you can't
sue the government and the 'remedy' is whatever the
government, not a 'sympathetic' jury, decides to provide.

Sorry, Obamacare uses private providers.

So did Mussolini.

That doesn't save your point.

My point, as it was written, stands on it's own.

So, it is your actual claim that government cannot be sued? lol


Wrong

Really?

Yes


healthcare sure does solve that 'problem' because you can't
sue the government

Sure looks like you made the claim. lol

What was that about a 'lying ass'...?

Your lying ass snipping, cutting, and pasting out of context.

"Government"

"Out of context" = pathetic lie. lol


Your mangling of posts and taking things out of context does indeed
equate to "pathetic lie."

Poor floppy, once again, believes he is the only one here with a command
of the english language. lol
