Unreal.

Being able to access health care only at the emergency room of certain
hospitals constitutes very limited access. I can't imagine why my
comment about the poor is unreasonable.

Poor example Chuck. The very best cars are rationed. The very best food
is rationed. I could go on and on.

You are a person of substantial means, Tom. I hope you have access to
the best available care.

Chuck, I can't afford to buy the $495,000 Mercedes I saw at the auto
show last week. Can you spare a couple of hundred thousand?

Neither portion of the statement is unreal, so how can the total
statement be unreal?

How much of your time and money do you donate to provided the
underfunded "access" to health care?

Perhaps if you had bothered to graduate from high school, you'd be doing
a lot better.

BAR,
You already are paying for them to have access to health care, the only
problem is you are paying way to much money to give them bad access. We
can pay less money by providing health care outside of the emergency
room. I like the MA program where everyone must have health insurance.
It provides a group plan for those who are not covered by a group
plan at work. If the person really can not afford it, not just that
they don't think they need it or would rather have cable and/or a new
car, they are subsidized, but everyone must pay for healthcare. This is
a much cheaper way for all of us.

We'll see in a year or two. I still pay for our coverage and the premiums
continue to go up.

You really want to keep your current plan, it probably provides better
coverage.

The problem is that people will still show up at the emergency room with
the sniffles and they will still be seen.

Ah, I work for a Mass. headquartered company. I know about the
escalating health care costs and what the company is doing to reduce costs.
