So I helped them out with all sorts of things. <br /><br />I learned that not only the insurance companies are in this, but the billing companies too. <br /><br />That's a layer nobody looks at but they make a lot of money just doing the billing for the doctors and hospitals. <br /><br />If we went single payer/universal all that would evaporate. We'd have to figure out what to do with all the people that would be put out of work by that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-78289931599812752752009-08-06T16:43:10.316-04:002009-08-06T16:43:10.316-04:00It's crazy to see the power of foolishnessIt's crazy to see the power of foolishnessWonder Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16723949771552274515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-20308653344914199142009-08-06T12:26:52.109-04:002009-08-06T12:26:52.109-04:00As a Canadian I am sitting back watching and liste...As a Canadian I am sitting back watching and listening to this. My husband found a great article from the Denver Post (let me know if you want me to find it). Debunking all the myths about how horrible our health care is and why its nothing to fear. Take it from someone who has lived through the best and worst of our health care system and NO ONE is left to die. <br />Of course mistakes are made (everywhere) but for the most part if you are sick you are taken care of. My late husband's care cost millions and they did everything in their power to save him - unfortunately it was out of their power - but never once did we lack for anything. Sorry I am very passionate about our health care system - and yes its NOT perfect but its a damn sight better than none at all.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17563699438451685394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-44818768597180312362009-08-06T10:47:39.278-04:002009-08-06T10:47:39.278-04:00It was amazing to see some of the protesters and t...It was amazing to see some of the protesters and their signs at the President's visit yesterday. My favorite was "Obama Lied, Grandma Died." I honestly think it's a form of mass hysteria. People hear these things and run with them.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149068921334726430noreply@blogger.com
