We Need Health Care:

The radical right is scarring the elderly, that universal health care would force them to have either no services or force them to be "laid to rest". This is ridiculous. Think about a few facts. In most states people who are laid off have the right to purchase health care through the COBRA. The problem is that people can't afford the the premiums. Then they apply for Medicaid, If they receive UI payments they are over income. Therefore, no insurance.

Myth of American Health care. It is not the greatest in the world. Even those rich and famous who have private physic ans can be killed by them. Remember that famous singer? Many studies show that we are one of the worst systems in the world. A few reasons, the obscene profits of the health insurance providers. Blue Cross and Blue Shield pay their top officers in excess of 30,000,000 a year. They have policies of rejecting applicants who have pre-existing conditions. Nurses in the 1930-60's received 1/3 of a physician's yearly pay. Now is a lot less. Physicans are skilled professionals they need to be reimbursed just to pay their 150,000 in student loans.

We need Tort Reform:

Why if a persons who is early 25,000,000 if he is injured in an Accident can receive millions of dollars for lost wages when his life time earning ability is between 500,000 and 750,000. Why millions of dollars for pain and suffering. Just a way to increase attorney's fees. Some attorneys charge 35 per cent for the fee and then tact on the entire cost of the litigation.

Town Meetings:

Conservatives are yelling and screaming at their representatives. Blogs are directing the radical right to shout down their representatives. They are being rude, crude and stupid. If they don't wont to be a part of the health care reform no problem. When they lose their coverage, can't pay cobra, can't qualify for Medicaid, they wait until the next open enrollment. If they have a catastrophic loss, they should not be eligible for the medical spend down program, since they have waived coverage. Also prevent them from filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy on the debt.

Remember we have higher mortality rates on new borns than the Third World countries. Recently in Arizona recently the State Treasurer's wife and new born died in child birth.

We can do better as a National. The radical right play fair, of course this may be difficult when you are more interested in yelling, screaming and making idots out of your selfs. Discuss, clearly, your proposals, but then you would have to have a plan, of yea, you are there to disrupt not to discuss or think. Remember Rush I think his name is, can't remember the last name is a druggie. A good person to listen if you ask me.
