Government run health care

[Psychoblues]

Government regulation of health care works quite well and costs the consumers much less than in America in many countries such as Japan, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, in fact all of the western European countries, and in other areas such as Cuba, Venezuela, even Brazil.

Don't give me your sound bites as argument. I require a more comprehensive overview, if you don't mind.

The TVA, Tennessee Valley Authority, 4.2 cents a kilowatt hour, the United States Postal Service 41 cents for a letter to anywhere important, The Veterans Administration that provides better care than any contractor would for quadruple the price, how much more do you need?

Your bitching about the government falls on deaf ears for those informed enough to actually know about it.

A federal government takeover of health care would be unconsitutional. But when has that stopped liberals?

[Psychoblues]

Unconstitutional is your argument? I haven't heard that yet. What is your argument in that regard?

Oh, my mistake. Perhaps you could point out in the Constitution where it gives the federal government the authority to take over the private health care industry, or interfere with privite citizens health care choices.

Woman Goes for Leg Operation, Gets New Anus Instead
Thursday, March 20, 2008


A German retiree is taking a hospital to court after she went in for a leg operation and got a new anus instead, the Daily Telegraph is reporting.

The woman woke up to find she had been mixed up with another patient suffering from incontinence who was to have surgery on her sphincter.

Click hear Dr. Manny talk about medical errors.

The clinic in Hochfranken, Bavaria, has since suspended the surgical team.

This must be proof positive that the SYSTEM is what failed! It couldn't have been a case of human error! No! It must've been those evil, baby-eating, green-skinned LIBS and their global conspiracy to make everything BAD!
Wrong (as always).

It is proof.

Ask me about the sobbing social security disability client I just talked to for 30 minutes because her cardiologist just refused to treat her any longer...because she can't pay all the fee at once. She's dieing! She's waiting for SSI...she's been waiting 3 yrs now. She has at least one yr before a hearing, maybe two, she'll die before that. Tell me how great a GOVERNMENT HEALTH CARE SYSTEM will be.
