So....a friend is for our US health care reform (already retired and on Medicare) because he had no trouble going to Canada to get laser surgery on his eyes so he wouldn't have to wear glasses and states there is nothing wrong with the Canadian system....but, and I'm asking a serious question here, how long do people really wait for emergent surgery if they belong to the Canadian system versus the American system as we have it now? How did Canada get their health care system up and ru ...

On Tuesday, the Census Bureau released its annual report on health insurance coverage in the United States. News media widely misconstrued the data and presented the problems facing the nation's health care system through a distorted lens. Many major news outlets made a basic error when reporting on the Census Bureau study. The Los Angeles Times wrote that "the number of Americans with no health insurance rose in 2010 to 49.9 million from 49 million the year before." But the figure c ...

In response to Keith O's idea of conducting free health care clinics in the states of dem legislators who are reluctant to support health care reform, progressives have donated $600,000 so far. The clinics are being scheduled. Dr. Oz is one of the many health care volunteers. Progressives put their money where their mouths are. ...

A dear friend of mine shared a prayer she wrote for health care and was kind enough to give me permission to share it here with all of you. She makes some very poignant points that I feel should be shared. Here goes: Prayer for Health Care Lord, we know that you must be aggrieved at the thought of so many people in the world who suffer from denial of access to the healing arts. As a Healer Yourself, You showed unconditional compassion to so many of us humans who desperately n ...

Perhaps they should link it directly to Social Security. make the plan optional, but if you decided against participation in the reform plan, you are automatically dropped from future Social Security payments.

Senior Health Care Solution So you're a senior citizen and the government says no health care for you, what do you do? Our plan gives anyone 65 years or older a gun and 4 bullets. You are allowed to shoot 2 senators and 2 representatives. Of Course, this means you will be sent to prison where you will get 3 meals a day, a roof over your head, and all the health care you need! New teeth, no problem. Need glasses, great. New hip, knees, kidney, ...

By FRANK RICH Published: March 27, 2010 THERE were times when last Sunday’s great G.O.P. health care implosion threatened to bring the thrill back to reality television. On ABC’s “This Week,” a frothing and filibustering Karl Rove all but lost it in a debate with the Obama strategist David Plouffe. A few hours later, the perennially copper-faced Republican leader John Boehner revved up his “Hell no, you can’t!” incantation in the House chamber — ...

If our elected "representatives" (you know who you are) had cooperated instead of fighting tooth and nail against, the ACA could have been more to your liking. Our beloved president did the best he could against the irrational opposition. It is a beginning. Praise the bama. ...

This is the biggest spike in health care spending since 1980 and not just reported by "Faux" News (hate to disappoint y'all)...

I am now paying 3 times the amount I was paying for insurance premiums only 3 months ago. I'm making 1/3 of what I made 15 years ago. I am literally working for minimum wage. Something has to change or I'm joining the millions of people, including illegal immigrants and people who refuse to work, to get my free insurance, too (which I'm now paying for). ...

I know Obamacare needs some fixes--at least it was a step in the right direction. I am still doing reports where people are in the acute care hospital setting because they did not take their maintenance medications for hypertension and diabetes, etc. I do not know why they let their Medicaid lapse, but they are in crisis. How much does a prescription for BP meds cost versus the hospital stay + rehab for stoke patients? How much does insulin and blood testing cost versus blindness, ampu ...

By Ken Kupchik Stupid things are always said in politics, whether it's to curry favor with ill-informed constituents, or because a politician is a missing filter between his brain and mouth. Based on the level of discourse during the recent health care debate, it appears that the far right possessed the lion's share of stupid comments. Here is the cream of the crap: 10) Sarah Palin temporarily came out of book-writing reclusion to claim that a health-care overhaul would create "dea ...

Common Sense Health Care our Nation can afford. - This makes sense to me. The American people have spoken. They oppose government-run health care. Republicans are on the side of the American people. What Americans want are common-sense, responsible solutions that address the rising cost of health care and other major problems. In the national Republican address on Saturday, October 31, 2009, House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) discussed Republicans’ plan for common- ...

Support for health care bill falls to new low http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/healthcare/september_2009/health_care_reform And say what you want about Sen. Joe Liberman, but he is earning my respect. Ms. Lincoln even stated she was "shocked by the “unbelievable type of threats” she had received.". As I was thinking this morning I wonder how many will be threatned if they don't vote for it. ...

Despite all the hubbub about health care, the United States can have affordable health care tomorrow if we want it. There have been real solutions available, solutions that have been right under our noses for decased,but you don't often hear about them and the prospects of getting them are rather grim unless the public is apprised of them. Today's debates and town hall meetings have not been about reducting the overall cost of health care, but about who's going to pay for it. See ...

This is good news. Now if politicians could just make health care affordable for all. I'd love the same rates as someone in Idaho or other states have. Make health insurance competitive, they have to accept pre-existing conditions and nobody could ever be refused health care and I think that would be a great way for a new year. But forcing people to buy a product they don't want is just not right and I'm glad this judge saw how unconstitutional it is. &nbs ...

This is the kind of thing you get when the government muddles around in the health care system - and it will be coming to a government database near you soon! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/7408379/Patients-medical-records-go-online-without-consent.html ...

It is estimated that there is at least 100 billion dollars health care fraud annually. There are truly needy people and they should be helped. But there are also many people who don't have health insurance because they just do not want to pay premiums, use their money for other things instead, when they could pay and are able to pay. This is just not right and this needs to be stopped, and that should make a dent in health care costs. Why not go after the health care ...
