You are correct! The lies about the death panel crap that is coming from the right is dishonest, and they know it, that is IF they read that part. From page 429: ‘‘(B) An advance care planning consultation with re2 spect to an individual may be conducted more frequently 3 than provided under paragraph (1) if there is a significant 4 change in the health condition of the individual, including 5 diagnosis of a chronic, progressive, life-limiting disease, a 6 life-threatening or terminal diagnosis or life-threatening 7 injury, or upon admission to a skilled nursing facility, a 8 long-term care facility (as defined by the Secretary), or 9 a hospice program. 10 ‘‘(4) A consultation under this subsection may in11 clude the formulation of an order regarding life sustaining 12 treatment or a similar order. 13 ‘‘(5)(A) For purposes of this section, the term ‘order 14 regarding life sustaining treatment’ means, with respect 15 to an individual, an actionable medical order relating to 16 the treatment of that individual that— Note line 10. Pretty scary, huh? Why is this here? ‘‘(iii) A program for orders for life sustaining 16 treatment for a States described in this clause is a 17 program that— some lines snipped... 5 ‘‘(IV) is guided by a coalition of stake 6holders includes representatives from emergency 7 medical services, emergency department physi8 cians or nurses, state long-term care associa9 tion, state medical association, state surveyors, 10 agency responsible for senior services, state de11 partment of health, state hospital association, 12 home health association, state bar association, 13 and state hospice association. Sure sounds like a panel, doesn't it? -- John H All decisions, even those made by liberals, are the result of binary thinking. i was a hospice volunteer for years. the level of instruction people get at the end of their lives is pathetic and only the right wing...which hates the human race...would oppose providing these people with support Not to be too obvious, but if you were the volunteer, what the hell kind of pathetic advice were you giving them? Besides, once an individual is in a hospice haven't the difficult decisions been already made? They were in my mother's case. -- John H All decisions, even those made by liberals, are the result of binary thinking. And the insults start.... What insult? -- John H All decisions, even those made by liberals, are the result of binary thinking. "Pathetic advice". You don't know what kind of advice he was giving. *He's* the one who used the term. I was just quoting his phrase. Guess I should have used quotes. Sorry. My bad. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. -- John H All decisions, even those made by liberals, are the result of binary thinking. |

The latest round of government data on worker productivity indicates that you probably are. The Labor Department said Tuesday that the American work force produced, at an annual rate, 6.4 percent more of the goods they made and services they provided in the second quarter of this year compared to a year ago. At the same time, "unit labor costs" - the amount employers paid for all that extra work - fell by 5.8 percent. The jump in productivity was higher than expected; the cut in labor costs more than double expectations. That is, despite the deep job cuts of the past year, workers who remain on the payroll are filling in and making up the work that had been done by their departed colleagues. In some cases, that extra work came with a smaller paycheck. Full story here... http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32374533...n_the_economy/ On todays production lines the volume can be increased without a corresponding increase in the effort of the individual. So a 6.4% increase in production does not mean that the employee is being overworked as implied. Don't know if you're heard, we don't have production lines here anymore. We're in the service business and military arms. The productivity gains come from less workers doing more, working longer hours for pay that doesn't keep up with the rising cost of living. No production, so we could not raise productivity. You kept all your deadwood. You don't have to produce on a line to be productive. We write software, it doesn't benefit from a faster production line. We are doing more with less people. When times are lean, that's the way it works. Did you ever work for an entreprenurial company or only behemoths? How well are those German screwdrivers helping you write software? That's what I was thinking, how do you write software with a screwdriver! He's lying like Harry of course, you'll see no evidence of his work. I will support jps here. I wrote software for embedded systems. Most for years was in PROM's. So you had to take the screw driver and open up the case to pop out the old PROM and install the new one. How many PROMS did you destroy before you honed your technique? The TI (ee)proms had the cheapest pins. Very few. Was long before I worked for TI, and do not remember the brand anymore. Was back in the 1980's. Also changed FPLA's. |

Then quit ****ing and moaning about the owners being wealthy (in the material sense, of course). ROFLMAO!! why? do you think that having had the big boys raid my 401k to maintain their lifestyles makes me rich? you right wingers have quite an imagination. Oh, and quit calling names and hurling personal insults. They don't help your arguments. Krause has been doing it for years. Hasn't helped him at all. -- ?? now let's see...the right invents lies such as obama putting people in concentration camps, forming death panels, etc. THEN when they get called on it, they moan they're being treated unfairly... You are correct! The lies about the death panel crap that is coming from the right is dishonest, and they know it, that is IF they read that part. All is fair in love, war and politics. If you can't stomach the fight then go home. Oh, so you condone your party's lies? More and more Republicans are coming out saying they want their party to stop that nonsense. It makes them look stupid for one thing. And the people who believe those lies then have to save face somehow. You mean like saying you landed in a hot zone and ran for cover, or saying the CIA lied, or saying the old folks fighting against health care reform were carrying swasticka's? Oh wait... forget it... Yes, a lie is a lie. BUT, you didn't answer the question! Ok, I will guess the question is about death panels.. The panels of uninvolved strangers from the government shouldn't be refered to as "Death Panels"... They should be called "Politically correct timely demise panels"... ;) Panels are panels. Call them what you will. A name simply identifies something, you call it a planning panel, I call it a Politically correct timely demise panel.. Tomato, Tomato. It is still a panel of uninvolved strangers who will be looking at paperwork and providing suggestions based on Government "Guidelines" as they will be folks who answer to the Government, not a doctor, financial advisor, family, guardian, durable power of atty, or lawyer that knows you and should the ones helping you make those decisions... BULL****! They aren't providing ANY "suggestions" based on anything. And it IS done by the doctor's liasons. ALL it does is require Medicare to OFFER counseling. The planning is nothing more, nothing less than thinking ahead about the treatment you'd like to receive at the end of your life. He http://www.factcheck.org/2009/07/fal...anasia-claims/ You need to read for yourself, NOT rely on the lies being told by the right. Again, go read the damn bill. "hhh)(1) Subject to paragraphs (3) and (4), the 7 term ‘advance care planning consultation’ means a con 8sultation between the individual and a practitioner de 9scribed in paragraph (2) regarding advance care planning, 10 if, subject to paragraph (3), the individual involved has 11 not had such a consultation within the last 5 years. Such 12 consultation shall include the following: 13 ‘‘(A) An explanation by the practitioner of ad 14vance care planning, including key questions and 15 considerations, important steps, and suggested peo 16ple to talk to. 17 ‘‘(B) An explanation by the practitioner of ad 18....and so on. Note the word 'shall' in line 12. Shall is simply a nice way of saying 'is hereby ordered to'. -- John H All decisions, even those made by liberals, are the result of binary thinking. So where does it say in there that the Democrats want to pull the plug on elderly people's lives? THAT is what your fellow conservatives are saying. Here Loogy. Read something worthwhile for a change. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000...57434490015216... No matter what liberal rag you're reading, the fact is that the liberals want to get the elderly off healthcare, and that means pulling the plug. Do you think the 'counselling' was meant to provide information on new medical technology to lengthen their lives? Hell, no. I think liberals have figured out a way to help the 'carbon footprint' problem. Kill babies and pull the plug on the elderly. Good lord your party has lied to you and you believe every bit of it! Loog. hey man. remember. Politics is politics, and it seems like politicians are built to lie. Poli- [many] tics- [blood suckers] I agree, it's just that some refuse to think that anyone in their party would do so. |
