says... "Boating All Out" wrote in message ... In article , says... This is the most screwed up, convoluted law ever enacted. The intent is admirable .... to make health care affordable for all, Bull****. You said you're a "conservative." The "conservatives" in Congress DON'T BELIEVE that health care should be affordable for all. If they did, they'd write a bill that did that. "Conservatives" DON'T BELIEVE THAT HEALTH CARE SHOULD BE AFFORDABLE FOR ALL! So be an honest man and lay out your plan. Nobody with over an ounce of brain matter buys this bull****. It's really as simple as that. I'm tired of this lying, ostensibly "reasonable" bull****. Cut to the facts. It's all in the facts. All other first world countries solved this years or decades ago. I repeat, lay out your "conservative" plan and don't try jacking honest people around. Then convince your so-call "conservative" compatriots. BTW, labeling yourself a "conservative" ties you up with that political hack crowd, as I hope I've made clear. To real "reasonable" people, those who label themselves like a dime- store item as "liberals" and "conservatives" are ****ing idiots. --------------------------------------- Wow. I guess you told me, huh? I am conservative in my overall social and fiscal philosophies. That's all. You can be conservative but not be in agreement with conservative politicians. But, I am wasting my time. I agree! |

Reasonable, Thinking people can't come to a consensus on what's reasonable. You need to get back on your meds, Harry. , because you've labeled yourself a "conservative." It runs counter to American "conservative principles." That's why they - and YOU - are so opposed to the PPACA. Laying out a plan would only prove you're NOT a "conservative." So just quit lying about it. Reasonable, thinking people are tired of that "waste of time" bull****. You wear the label you put on yourself. That's how it is. It was your choice. Accept the label, or change it. But don't lie about it. You're old enough to know better. |

But normal health issues usually get same day service depending on the severity the problem. ----------------------- No it was at least the 1980's. And the wait was not because of rationing, was because the person was not a Canadian citizen and could not pay for the cost of the broken bone. I had to visit the hospital in Sorrento, Italy in about 2000. Cracked a tooth and tooth ache. They have a doctors office at the hospital (PRONTO SOCCORSO or spelling something like that) where anybody could go no charge. If you needed more than they could do, and you were not a member of one of the European Health Care groups you had to pay. We fix you up here, no matter your citizenship or legality. They will try to get the money from you later, but you are fixed first. No assets, then the rest of us with insurance and taxes pay for your care. I think San Diego figures $155 million a year for medical care for illegals. A lot of money the taxpayers have to pay. How do you handle illegal immigrants in Canada? |

Sorry I don't spend my whole day here like you three (get lives, really) but I have to get it all out at once. So, what do you think when you spread the same lies about myself and my family situation that harry and don make up? Guess you are the pot, I am the kettle... |
