Want to see what gov run health care would look like? Here's a
glimpse:

My wife is the CFO of a small to medium sized health care business.
One of the things they are involved with is hospice care, which in
part gets billed to Medicare. Right now, Medicare owes them nearly
a
million dollars, and they won't pay. Why, you ask?

Well, you might think that the company was under scrutiny, or has
filed improperly. Not the case... the snafu is solely on
Medicare's
side, and they admit it. They say they have a glitch in their
system,
telling them to hold on while they try to "work it out".
Meanwhile,
Medicare (the federal government, on Obama's watch) is hurting this
private business, forcing them to carry the government of the US
because of Medicare's clerical error!! This has been going on for
several weeks, and has risen to the level of letters and calls to
federal legislators for help, with no end in site.

So now you want to turn our health care over to this same
bureaucracy? Do that and watch as thousands of private health care
providers go bankrupt or simply shut down and walk away, unable to
continue to stay in business. We'll have a system where only the
rich
and powerful (like the congress and senate) have decent and timely
health care because they don't have to rely *solely* on the public
option. Meanwhile, the rest of us will be fighting, and waiting,
for
the scraps doled out by the government.

"We're from the government, and we're here to help you." Uh-huh.




I agree with this post.

Rob



Wow... such an inciteful follow up post Rob... one of many that are
the
same. You must be above average.




In many ways, yes, I am.

Rob


Too bad you can feel good about attempting to put others down because
of
their looks. I guess you're below average in that respect.



Once again, the truth hurts. You have no choice but to live with it.

Rob


I know! The truth does hurt, but you shouldn't feel to bad about being
below
average in any respect. I recall I got a B on a test once. That really
stung!

Keep digging. Eventually, you'll reach China..




Your spin is lame and obvious. You really have to work harder on that.

Rob


You're the one who's workin. I'm gliding along. Why don't you tell us how
above average you are. I'm sure you'll feel better.

His cars are better than a Toyota. His wife is either homely or dim.
Who would possibly want to be with such a dud? Maybe he had a
personality when she met him.
