Obviously the parents would not mortgage their home and persue it legally, they don't have a case. And they can't really persue this type of abuse. this is why we need socialized medicine In a weird sort of way, I agree. This was a tragic neglect of parents that should not be allowed to happen. But it happens all the time as they think they can cheat the system and get others to pay for it. Pretty obvious far too many parents have this problem with home economics.

What does unemployment have to do with a baby's welfare? Certainly, you're in no position to help, being close to being homeless? You didn't answer the question, how come you didn't help them with your money? I am sure you could contact the hospial and setup a fund with your money... Because in the end this is about extorting others doing it right as you have no intention of paying for your mouth. Liberalism is fine as long as someone else is paying for it. Trouble is, you yourself are unwilling as nothing stops you from seeking out such situations and putting your own money on the line.

Eisboch No "other words" are needed. I believe health insurance or a national health plan should be mandatory, and if you legitimately cannot afford the insurance, it should be subsidized for you and your family to the degree necessary. The hang-up I still have is the difference between a mandatory health insurance program and the right to free or subsidized (tax supported) health care for life threatening or disabling conditions. Mandatory health insurance puts another massive layer of bureaucracy, private or government, into the mix. When it comes to getting care, that has never been a good thing. A mandatory health insurance law is in effect here in MA. For those who can't afford the subsidized insurance (state programs) it is cheaper to pay the fine (assuming the state even enforces the collection of them, which I doubt.) Tough call. I guess my attitude is that those of us that are fortunate enough to be able to afford decent health insurance also have a moral obligation to assist those who need medical care (though a tax or increased insurance premium) for those who cannot afford insurance. But to subsidize health *insurance* programs is another matter. Eisboch Are you suggesting that those that can afford it pay retail, but those who need subsidized care get it through some other method? Not sure I understand. The guy lays out a detailed plan to provide health care for all, and you bitch about it. Unless you have a better plan, quit criticizing. What about my post was bitching? Do you actually read or just jerk a spasmotic knee? It was a question about clarification, you dweeb, not an accusation or bitch. |

The health of the country (medical and fiscal) should not be dependent upon the whims of a few. I do *not* support general tax based programs to provide or subsidize free health care insurance via private or government insurance programs. I do support programs that ensure the health of the country, as I stated just above. To do less, is not moral in my opinion. There's no other way to ensure our health, at least nothing I know of. Perhaps you can suggest something? -- Nom=de=Plume Well, since I believe we all have a moral responsibility to help our fellow man to the degree we can, I have no problem with a tax program that provides for a fund intended to be paid directly to hospitals for services rendered for life threatening conditions. No government or private insurance companies involved. Umm... who's going to administer the program? It's going to have to be a gov't body of some sort. A tax program = gov't. Do you want to rethink your comment? The difference in what I am proposing is that the fund provided by taxes pays for the medical care given in these situations. It does *not* pay for insurance policy premiums. That's the problem with our existing system ... insurance companies ripping off the insured with big profits derived from the premium payments and a reluctance to pay out when required. A government run version of an insurance company would simply create another huge bureaucracy consisting of tens of thousands new government employees. They all have to be paid per federal guidelines from the tax dollars. Very inefficient use of tax money intended to provide necessary medical care to those who can't afford it or the insurance to provide for it. Make sense? On some level, sure. It makes sense. But on a practical level, it would difficult to administer. Who's going to administer the program? How do the funds get dispersed? How do you know that there isn't fraud? Don't get me wrong... I'm all for doing away with the insurance companies involved in medical claims. They're just the middleman and they take a huge cut. The problem is that some entity has to do the work. If you don't like insurance companies, then the gov't has to do it. Medicare is an example. There's all kinds of waste/fraud in that system. It has funding problems. The former can be reduced with increasing oversight (but I believe the Republicans recently voted against having undercover agents). The latter involves reducing benefits for those who can afford to pay in other ways, and finding other funding solutions (perhaps an increase in taxes - there's no free lunch). -- Nom=de=Plume |

The adults are speaking. -- Nom=de=Plume |

Not having insurance and then when they have a problem they subscribe. Just jacks the rates for the rest of us. kill 'em. hell, why not just shoot the babies of the poor...gas 'em... and if it jacks the rates for the rest of us...then why doesn't this happen in other countries? you right wingers have no answer for this, do you? other countries have better healthcare, universal, at lower cost BUT...because it's socialized, you'd rather have children die than admit your fundamentalist faith in the free market HAS to be right even when it's wrong Now think of the millions who get jobs with health care when they think they need it yet as soon as they don't... Too much free loading. should we at least pay for coffins to bury dead children? would the right wing support THAT? or is that freeloading, too? Read my original uncut post again you knee jerk fool. No way Blue Cross should have to pay. And no way the hospital should be putting out $50,000+++ operations to vagrants. Get the government to pay for it then sell off the parents as slaves to settle the debt. Their negligence is the cause. Simple as that. -- -------------- Politicians don't provide anything, the tax payers do. Yeah, just let them die. You're a great humanitarian. Hell, it was you liberals who let the baby die. Should have turned over the parents like turnips. That's right. The "liberals" are evil, bad people. That's why right wing nuts such as yourself support insurance companies over actual people. Yep. What these parents, if you can call them that, tried was fraud. Assuming that's true, which I doubt, that means all liberals are evil. Yes. We know you're an idiot. When you leftist losers come up with a plan that does not screw other people for the dysfunction of others, let me know, I would be interested. As at some point, we would all like to subscribe for insurance in just the month we need it. But the reality isn't so for good reason. Fix the parenting issue first. How can we when there are people like you with the potential to reproduce??? -- Nom=de=Plume |

Just jacks the rates for the rest of us. how the hell does a newborn baby have a 'pre existing condition'? and what the hell relevance is this? the kid is DYING but to the right...let him DIE... Sorry, the parents here are to blame. They should have being paying up long before even getting knocked up. yep. kill the kid Nope. Should have saved the kid, jailed the parents in debtors court. Obviously the parents would not mortgage their home and persue it legally, they don't have a case. And they can't really persue this type of abuse. this is why we need socialized medicine In a weird sort of way, I agree. This was a tragic neglect of parents that should not be allowed to happen. But it happens all the time as they think they can cheat the system and get others to pay for it. Pretty obvious far too many parents have this problem with home economics. Time for these people to be forced to pay and do without so they pay for their needs, including heath care. Now think of the millions who get jobs with health care when they think they need it yet as soon as they don't... Too much free loading. -- -------------- Politicians don't provide anything, the tax payers do. No... you hate them. You hate anyone who isn't like you. You could have offered to pay for it. How come you didn't? Or is socialism OK as long as other people pay for it? You're a moron. I offer to pay more taxes. That's how our system works. Even on this newsgroup, I offered to pay for John's utility bill. He wasn't willing to meet me even 1/4 of the way to getting it done. How does unemployed offer more taxes? Hell, you could have wired these welshers $100K for the operation. But yu didn't, because you want other peoples moneys.... ?? What are you ranting about? What does unemployment have to do with a baby's welfare? Certainly, you're in no position to help, being close to being homeless? You didn't answer the question, how come you didn't help them with your money? I am sure you could contact the hospial and setup a fund with your money... You want me to send someone $100K??? Are you just pretending to be dumber than a stump? Because in the end this is about extorting others doing it right as you have no intention of paying for your mouth. Liberalism is fine as long as someone else is paying for it. Trouble is, you yourself are unwilling as nothing stops you from seeking out such situations and putting your own money on the line. Trouble is, you are a screwed up loser.. probably no money and just a hanger. So who is your meal ticket? Better treat them real good as they are what keeps you from the street. Here's your logic: Why should we go to school? School is about acquiring knowledge. Knowledge is power. Power corrupts. Corruption is a crime. Crime doesn't pay. Therefore, we shouldn't go to school. -- Nom=de=Plume |

The hang-up I still have is the difference between a mandatory health insurance program and the right to free or subsidized (tax supported) health care for life threatening or disabling conditions. Mandatory health insurance puts another massive layer of bureaucracy, private or government, into the mix. When it comes to getting care, that has never been a good thing. A mandatory health insurance law is in effect here in MA. For those who can't afford the subsidized insurance (state programs) it is cheaper to pay the fine (assuming the state even enforces the collection of them, which I doubt.) Tough call. I guess my attitude is that those of us that are fortunate enough to be able to afford decent health insurance also have a moral obligation to assist those who need medical care (though a tax or increased insurance premium) for those who cannot afford insurance. But to subsidize health *insurance* programs is another matter. Eisboch Are you suggesting that those that can afford it pay retail, but those who need subsidized care get it through some other method? Not sure I understand. The guy lays out a detailed plan to provide health care for all, and you bitch about it. Unless you have a better plan, quit criticizing. What about my post was bitching? Do you actually read or just jerk a spasmotic knee? It was a question about clarification, you dweeb, not an accusation or bitch. I have a really moronic spoofer. Thanks for the kind comments, anyway. Maybe you should consider augmenting your screen name so we can tell the difference. Sure you don't have MPD? |

Earlier in this thread I made the statement that I believe that those with the ability to pay have a moral responsibility to help those that cannot when it comes to life threatening or disabling condition medical care. I repeat. Medical care. I do *not* support general tax based programs to provide or subsidize free health care insurance via private or government insurance programs. Big difference between the two. Eisboch Agreed. Nothing wrong with the status quo a few tweaks won't fix. Modern technology can help. I've been supporting Guatemalan orphans for $9.95 a month. Hope to wipe out poverty there. I saw the need on a TV commercial, went to a web site, and signed up. Monthly charge to my credit card. It's tax deductible. There should be a privately operated web service where those needing medical care can sign up, and then those of us fortunate enough to have discretionary income can browse the internet site and choose who to contribute to for their health care. You could do a one-time contribution, or a monthly deal like I do with the orphans. If money is tight due to boat payments or furrier expenses, lay off on contributions until you're flush again. But it's all voluntary. Charity, not government. What a wonderful thought. Must be idylic there in fantasy land. |

Darn it. :) Earlier in this thread I made the statement that I believe that those with the ability to pay have a moral responsibility to help those that cannot when it comes to life threatening or disabling condition medical care. I repeat. Medical care. Perhaps there is a moral requirement, but since it can't be legislated, it ends up being an individual choice. The health of the country (medical and fiscal) should not be dependent upon the whims of a few. I do *not* support general tax based programs to provide or subsidize free health care insurance via private or government insurance programs. I do support programs that ensure the health of the country, as I stated just above. To do less, is not moral in my opinion. There's no other way to ensure our health, at least nothing I know of. Perhaps you can suggest something? -- Nom=de=Plume Well, since I believe we all have a moral responsibility to help our fellow man to the degree we can, I have no problem with a tax program that provides for a fund intended to be paid directly to hospitals for services rendered for life threatening conditions. No government or private insurance companies involved. WTF is the difference between that and what we have now? Emergency rooms become the doctors office at twice or three times the rate of normal care in a doctor's office. Are you into inefficiency? |

"Peter Prick" wrote in message ... Though Eisboch may mean well, his answer is bereft of any thought or logic, and could insult anybody with the slightest knowledge of the health care issue. That's fine though, since this is a boat venue, and most here probably don't spend much time in debating health care policy. Not attributing anything to Eisboch, but I've heard much the same empty words from Republican politicians. "We have good ideas." "There's a better way." Whenever pressed for details, they propose ideas that have been rejected time and again as not offering a solution to the problem, and which would simply maintain, or even worsen, the status quo. Your "WTF" was quite appropriate. Again, I understand that Eisboch may mean well. I'm sure he is better versed in boats than he is in the health care issue. And it is unfair to ask him to put in a paragraph what Congress needed +2700 pages to describe. You are correct, Prick or whoever you are. I don't claim to be a health insurance expert, nor do I have all the answers. However, I *do* have some experience in the administration of health care plans in a company and I have some experience in the application of health insurance as it pertains to a serious health issue. Not to sound like a broken record, but the health insurance problem started with the demise of affordable, Major Medical health insurance (catastrophic insurance) that started in the late 1970's and early 1980's. When HMO, then PTO and other similar plans became the standard in the industry, the cost of medical insurance began it's upward spiral. It now seems that a medical insurance plan styled like an HMO and subsidized by taxpayers for those who can't afford it is expected to be a right. I have no problem with insurance or subsidized care/service for life threatening or disabling conditions. I *do* have a problem with subsidized HMO type programs covering everything under the sun, including elective or for convenience surgery, convenience abortions (meaning non-life threatening) etc. When it comes to basic health care, everyone should have it and those who can't afford it should be helped. When it comes to other, elective or unnecessary care, surgery, etc, I think you should pay for it and not have it paid for by others. Really very simple. Eisboch |
