wrote this crap: No liberals in the USMC. NB In my admittedly short stays at Parris Island, ITR, Camp Lejuene Amtrack pad, Camp Pendelton's Oceanside Amtrack pad, and Quantico, VA, I don't remember ever discussing or hearing discussed, anyone's position along the conservative, liberal, continuum. Of course it was a long time ago. Frank In my long stays at Fort Sill, Fort Gordon, Fort Lewis, Fort Knox, Fort, Bragg, Fort Cambell, etc., etc., etc., we ALWAYS discussed politics. Most military personnell are very conservative. This post is 100% free of steroids |

I should get one. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com No, among other things, you should read "The Anti-Capitalistic Mentality," by Ludwig Von Mises, "Das Kapital," by Karl Marx, 1867, Thomas Paine, "The Rights of Man, 1791, and Alfred Marshall's "Principal of Economics," 1890. You can skip the first 9/10 of the Marshall book and just read the Appendix. (He hid the tool that did the work). Your ignorance is exposed to all who have ears to hear.

What's more important, continued support for a private health care system, or American jobs? It seems to be overlooked that our health care system costs upwards of 15% GDP, while those countries with universal health care spend @10% GDP. That extra 5% is the reason is the reason our automotive sector is fleeing north, expanding operations in Canada, while curtailing them here. In a global economy, 5% extra cost puts us at a considerable economic disadvantage. Ignore that at your peril. All manufacturing is fleeing, not just automotive, and health care cost is a major driver. I know, I've been there. But universal health care is not the answer. Just recently, at a medical school close to my home, the state legislature mandated to the board of higher education that the number of seats be increased. There is a very large supply of eligible candidates, many don't get in. It is the AMA's very sucessful, long standing attempt to control the supply side, keeping fee schedules very high. That's just job losses. Let's not consider the lower life expectancy and higher infant mortality our health system provides. Our health care system doesn't have anything to do with this. It is a matter of lifestyle choices. Want a lower infant mortality rate? how about a lower rate of teen mothers on drugs and alcohol. Want a longer life expectancy? How about everyone get off your buns and get some exercise and drop the high fat, high sugar diet. Frank Who runs 36 miles a week and at 60 has no aging diseases. No diabetes, no high blood pressure, no cardiovascular issues, no joint, ligament, or cartilage issues. Universal health care is available in all modern cultures except ours. I'm sure we're glad you're healthy and can afford health care, but no one has a contract with God. And you miss the entire point. Adopting healthier lifestyles has nothing to do with having a contract with God. It just diminishes the need for the" healthcare" that we have come to believe is an entitlement in this country, that is we can eat horribly, be obese, smoke, lead completely sedentary lives, and if pregnant, take drugs, alcohol and smoke, and we or our newborn will remain healthy, and if that doesn't work, someone else has to pay to make it happen. Anything the government has ever gotten involved in that requires cost control and reasonable product or service has been a disaster. Frank And you've missed the point as well... all of your attempts to remain healthy are great, but that has little to do with the money required to save your life or give you a decent quality of life if you get sick and don't have insurance. It is the point. I go to the doctor once a year for him to tell me I'm healthy. There is no burdon on the system. Of course I'm paying an exorbitant amount for health insurance which I don't need in order to pay for those that have not made those healthy lifestyle choices. That's how it works, and the only thing that can make it worse is for the government to step in. The VA insurance is a great example of gov't run healthcare that for the most part works. They can negotiate prices for drugs, they serve a vast community, mostly quite well. So have you used the VA system? I had two close relatives now deceased, who used the excellent VA system. father in law was one of them. I'm not even going to comment on your assessment of it as a system that works "quite well" You're very quick to say that healthcare is an entitlement, as though it isn't needed, not really. It is needed and that's demonstrated by the millions who are uninsured, pushing up the costs for those who are. It's demonstrated by people's inability to get affordable insurance that sticks with them, rather than changes with their employer. A child of four getting cancer is not a life-style problem, but gods forbid if that child's parents couldn't afford decent health insurance. No, what I said is that we seem to believe we can live horrible lifestyles and we have an entitlement to have some system that is subsidized by others, either the government or the people in a group who are making the healthy choices, to offset the effects of those poor lifestyle choices. That's what sucks up the resources that would be available for those exceptional cases where the illness is no fault of the patient. And please site the case where a four year old is not treated for cancer, whatever the financial status of the parents. We're very, very quick to talk about "freedom," but we sure are slow to talk about decency when it comes to our own And with that statement, I wonder why I even bother to respond. Frank Why are you paying for health insurance if you claim you don't and won't need it? Seems foolish. You are free to drop your health insurance coverage at any time. Insurance is just that...the hedge agaisnt the bet that you may or may not need it...but in one respect, you're correct...if a person is magnificently healthy, then putting the money into an HSA might be a better thing to do... Frank just got telling us that he doesn't need insurance because he's healthy. Can't imagine why he would need an HSA either. Hmmmmm, I've searched the post over and over and cannot find the statement "I don't need health insurance because I'm so healthy", Another lie from Jon. But you don't need it right? Always a personal attack Frank or are you just bored? -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
