insurance companies are starting to ration care by choosing which
doctors they'll let you see.

so much for free enterprise.

It's all about free enterprise and free enterprise is corporate
America being allowed to grab you by the gonades and sqeeze just as
hard and as long as they want to.

There is a requirement for any company working on USG contracts
overseas that requires the companies to purchase "defense base act"
(DBA) insurance.
There are only a few providers for this insurance, the biggest being
AIG and the next being CNA.
The Dept of Labor is supposed to monitor and ensure the injured are
being fairly treated by these insurance companies but like ALL other
USG bureaucracies, the DOL is doing a **** poor job.
In the rare occasion that the injured is determined to be worthy of
compensation or further treatment by DOL, the way the system is set
up, the insurance company can ignore the DOL with no repercussion.
These companies are finally being investigated for war profiteering
but I doubt much, if anything will be done to them.
Our government, including our Democrat and Republican representatives,
belongs to big business.

Yep.

The American people are too conditioned to realize that the government
is supposed to work for them and not the other way around. Our
government has had the scared and stupid campaign going for a very
long time. It's a great way to control the masses.


Yep. Notice what the lefties and righties here are doing right now.
Calling each other names.
That works out real good for the pols, lobbyists and big business.
Won't last too long though. It's all falling apart.

Too bad people are so head stuck up their asses hell bent for no change.

Be a good time for a new party with the motto...

Right now you work for the governemnt.
Governemnt should work for you...
Vote for a real change...

Trouble is how to get 200m bozos to think more than democrat black or
republican white, and in balck and white.
