Then your ice floe description above must refer to some additional future bill, which doesn't exist yet? I'm betting medicare already has a similar requirement.

No one needs 'permission' from the government to ask, or discuss with, their doctor any damn thing they feel like, including 'alternatives'. And no such thing is in the bill. Fantasize much? Where's the downside? For one, that it's none of the government's damn business Medicare is none of the government's damn business? Funny fantasy world you live in. and just what do you think the point is in 'dictating' physicians lecture you on things both you and he are already perfectly free to discuss at any time? Exactly the same as any other regulation anywhere that mandates any professional discuss anything with anyone. To make sure you don't get screwed. The hilarious part is someone bitching about it when they have no downside to bitch about. One conversation in five years to prevent profiteering you'd scream bloody murder about if it happened?

My engineering mind says, if something can be interpreted two ways, the BAD way will be the government way. Actually, you are pretty close to the mark. But it's not all government, only Republican government. It is summed up in the article "Why Conservatives Can't Govern" http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/features/2006/0607.wolfe.html by Alan Wolfe. "Conservatives cannot govern well for the same reason that vegetarians cannot prepare a world-class boeuf bourguignon: If you believe that what you are called upon to do is wrong, you are not likely to do it very well." If conservatives can't govern things that don't need to be governed then so what? Irrelevant question. |
