Another take  ...

"Bloviation vs. Reality on Stimulus Health-Care Provision"

"This right-wing brushfire didn't start on its own, of course. It was a work of political arson by the country's drugmakers and medical device makers, which have the most to lose if there is solid research showing that some of their most expensive and high-margin products aren't really better than the low-priced spread."

I believe it is more than a suggestion!  :biggrin:

I guess that's what makes the insurance industry different from all of those other corporations who we know use any and all tax cuts to hire more workers for the betterment of society as a whole. [/sarcasm]
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

:biggrin: That too! There's breaking wind, blowing wind, silent (but deadly) wind, stuttering wind, chugging wind, and white castle wind. . .  :biggrin:

I saw the CEO of Wellpoint on CNBC earlier. She is all-in on anything that restricts access to expensive, new procedures.
You know, like you all seem to be so afraid the government would do.
The thing is, the insurance comapnies would let you die and dance on your grave if it means the next shareholder report will read well.

"The thing is, the insurance comapnies the next Republican President would let you die and dance on your grave if it means the next shareholder report will read well Halliburton promises a large campaign donation."

"The thing is, the insurance comapnies Senator Blowhard, D - Massachusetts would let you die and dance on your grave if it means the next shareholder report will read well a lobbyist will promise to fund a nice "fact-finding" mission to Bermuda."

"The thing is, the insurance comapnies President Obama would let you die and dance on your grave if it means the next shareholder report will read well Acorn membership drive promised a large increase of (imaginary) Democrat voters."

"The thing is, the insurance comapnies some pissed-off, lower-level Gov't functionary would let you die and dance on your grave if it means the next shareholder report will read well his buddy with the nice boat can get in to see the doctor before you."

Choose your "fixed" reply.

We already have socialized health care for our Veterans...why don't you go ask a bunch of THEM how that's working?

Ever been to a license branch?
Imagine this: You show up at the emergency room with your seriously injured child. But you are turned away because you had only TWO forms of picture identification, not the required THREE. And the unaccountable-Gov't functionary says, "Next!".

Still not convinced? This ought to do it:
Imagine the Gov't under Chimpy McBush being in charge of making health-care decisions for the citizens...
When you can fully understand why THAT would be undesirable, then you'll understand why I find Gov't control of healthcare, no matter WHO is President or what party is in the majority, to be abhorrent.
