Well-crafted article. Some will fret that it comes from David Duke.
But
it reflects realities.

That's some bizarre logic.
Nah...you're just an idiot.
You should try it some time. Logic, that is.
So, pray tell, what is the problem with my logic?

You haven't, that's apparent.
Medical malpractice will go up for unnecessary deaths because instead
of spending 5 minutes with a patient, we've just added 45 million new
patients and no new doctors.

He has none.
They aren't new patients. They are patients who will hopefully be
able go to regular doctors instead of to emergency rooms. Emergency
rooms have a lot higher ratio of medical personnel per patient than
general clinics.

And in a relatively short time will _reduce_ total medical care with the
availability of primary care. Primary care will treat medical problems
early avoiding medical crisis' and emergency treatment.

Yeh. He just killed someone else.
Hopefully, Curly, you will change professions from short-selling
houses to medical nurse. Then you can work your ass off for almost
nothing as Obama takes a well respected and well paid profession and
turns gives you the status of a Wall Mart greeter.
Patients are already able to go to regular doctors. They choose not to. When
the government forces insurance to pay for more such visits there'll be more
and more. Why not when they're "free"?

Bullshit. If that were so the Hill\Burton act would have left billions
of dollars unspent at hospitals around the nation.

Good! Then problems like high blood pressure will be treated early
with a simple and cheap pill instead of dialysis.
Kinda/sorta. True conservatives believe in personal responsibility and
liberty and loathe the Big Brother scenario. However I believe that your
use of "conservatives" is aimed at Republicans, neocons and the wacko
right who lay claim to the name and are anything but.
Republicans are not "conservatives" any more than Democrats are
"Liberals."
Not if they can't pay.
Emergency rooms have to take all comers, regardless of ability to pay.
Doctors in private practice don't.
>They choose not to. When
>the government forces insurance to pay for more such visits there'll be more
>and more. Why not when they're "free"?
They are already "free" to those who have no means to pay for them.
Now the hospital eats the loss, and eventually gets a chunk of money
from the government to pay for that loss (the alternative is that the
hospitals go out of business). Eventually, the taxpayer takes the hit
for all those unwarranted ER visits.
I contribute a significant amount of money each year to people
charities, not Earth Liberation Front, Audobon Society, etc.
Then we'll start hearing about Emergency Rooms "Too Large To Fail."
One should note..that this article is from 1988...21 yrs ago. Things

Sleep well tonight,
RD (The Sandman)
Let's see if I have this healthcare thingy right. Congress is to pass
a plan written by a committee whose head has said he doesn't understand
it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it, signed by a president who
hasn't read it, with funding administered by a Treasury chief who didn't
pay his taxes because he didn't understand TurboTax, overseen by an obese
Surgeon General and financed by a country that's nearly broke.
What could possibly go wrong?
EMTALA = Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (among others)
Exactly.......passed by Congress and signed into law by Big Ronnie in
1986.
Conservatives deny that fact.
No walk-in clinics where you live, eh?
None within walking distance %^)
And you have to pre-enroll and prove lack of income in order to get on
their list.
The emergency rooms are closer (or easier and faster to get to), and
don't require proof of anything. (for the illegals, this of course is
especially important).
What illegals??? These guys say it is a sickness to claim someone is
illegal.
No for someone without insurance...other than the 'free County Health
Clinic paid for by YOUR tax dollars
How can they do that when Ronnie Reagan signed the legislation that put
it into law......the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act
(EMTALA) in 1986.
>> Conservatives deny that fact.

Tisk, tisk. RD, you *know* the answer to that one. It's been
demonstrated right here in this newsgroup innumerable times.
I take exception with calling them "conservatives" but the point stands.
Neocons, Republicans and religionists have shown this tendency for longer
than either of us have been around. Reality has no bearing on an issue,
their belief is primary. You can't knock those false beliefs out of
their heads with a 2X4, like man and dinosaur walked the earth
contemporaneously...
This is why I believe humankind is having a schism similar to that of the
neanderthal and cromagnon. It's a different world but I wonder if
ancient man had the room to distance themselves and lead non-intersecting
lives 50 to 20 thousand years ago or were in conflict as todays diverging
species are?
It's still unclear whether this is a genetic or memetic divergence but
the result is the same. Their kind will go extinct, just not fast enough.

I find some of the same problems with Democrats....one reason I am not a
member of either party. They seem to think in many cases that inanimate
objects have minds of their own and cause murders. ;)

The biggest problem as far as I see it is that the extremes of both views
have captured the respective parties. Another reason why many are
leaving those parties and looking for something in the middle.

Yes, another sect of crazymotherfuckers however there is a quanitative
difference. Those people operate out of fear and ignorance. Hmm, on
second thought that's not all that different.
Except for the god-thing.

Use a different perspective, that is a "Good Thing<tm>". As the two-
party system becomes increasingly polarized they lose membership and
power. Maybe this holiday I can write a pre-release synopsis of my book
on this subject, "Evolving Granular Democracy."

Your crazymother won't even take a day off for Christmas huh? She must be
the hardest working woman in the business.
Full scholarships for med school and living wages for interns and
residents would temper the earning needs and expectations of physicians.
An increased supply of new physicians would also apply downward
pressure on income.
All of which can be handled by PAs, Nurse Practitioners and other
mid-level providers.
;)
Merry Christmas to you, Curly...

Those things were part and parcel of most Medicare Advantage plans and is

Actually it has been proven repeatedly. However common sense should
obliviate the need for proof. For instance a diabetic unaware of their
condition usually discovered their medical problem only when a life
threatening event occurs. From collapse to gangrene diabetes is a large
population of emergency care. Same for high blood pressure. Both can be
mitigated by the simplist of of medical care.
Care which people cannot afford.

Nor should there be gym memberships. Primary care will alert the patient
to health needs. Exercise being one of them. Exercise does not require
a gymnasium, weight room, swimming pool, only walking shoes or plastic
milk bottles.
Best to yours y prospero ano nuevo tambien.
Don't you think the U.S. has no real business in the Islamic Middle
East except war -- as sponsored by America's ever-hungry MILITARY-
INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX?
No less than one-third of the U.S.'s GDP is buttressed by the MIC.
War weapons and materiel manufacturing, research, development, U.S.
jobs, domestic and foreign sales, grants, contracts ....you name it.
And don't you think we'd be better-off withdrawing our military forces
from Muslim lands and using our military to stabilize and democratize
Latin America, where Iran, Al-Qaeda and other terrorist gangs are
making serious inroads in Venezuela, Cuba, Bolivia, and even Colombia
and Mexico?
Let's accept fact: The MIC exists to foment and sponsor foreign
wars. It's too powerful and ingrained in the U.S. economy to be
reigned-in.
But since our main export is war, why not do some good by circling the
wagons around our own hemisphere and "closing down" the Castro and
Chavez regimes and others of their ilk?
Isn't it about time?

Welp, there's a guiy on this newsgroup who relocated to Argentina for
the almost free medical care.
If only all the other losers would follow...
We should make on final investment and buy them one-way bus tickets.

I don't think he relocated for ALL of his medical care, just the drugs to
treat his vaginal yeast infections. He stated he returns to the US for
medical treatment of his other family members.
Gracias......lo mismo a te.
Based on geology and climate studies and excavations, apparently there
was lots of room but Cro-Magnon often hung out in the same neighborhood
with Neanderthal, in a few cases living within a few hundred yards.
There's even speculation of cross-breeding.
Neanderthal was around long before Cro-Magnon; estimated span from
200,000 - to 20,000 BC.
This is significant because Neanderthal is known for its small
close-knit groups, static tool kit, and settlement patterns. They
tended to live in the same places for generations and did not explore
and expand their population as did Cro-Magnon.
Neanderthal had the larger brain, speech, and a stronger physique.
They were quite different from Cro-Magnon.

You're suggesting physiological differences between Socialists and
others. The Socialist mindset, or that of their pre-industrial
predecessors, does seem to forebode disaster. Some think Socialists
might actually cause the problems that beset them.
To ward off the Socialist curse, apply the Cro-Magnon survival slogan,
"Improvise, adapt, overcome."
Really? I believe in God and I don't think that.
You've inferred so many times that science and religion cannot mix,
yet some of the most superb research hospitals have the word "Saint"
in their name.
Curly, you take the verry narrowest view of all things religious then
broadbrush all religious people with your bigotry.
You need to get real.

Please don't differ with Curly because he knows everything.

Curly hides amonst those he despises... Catholics. Once he is
discovered, his problems will surely be of his own doing.

Do they do lots of research at St. Albert's?
