Is this from someone who sits home, attends nothing , speaks to NO doctors and of course knows nothing. It's funny. I'm telling you what the DOCTORS are saying and you still don't believe it. The sheep being led to slaughter. what else is there to say? common sense isn't common anymore. Sad Those who don't believe hopefully will be the first to wait and wait and wait in line while they need the knee or hip. Good luck with that.

"If God forbid the Joker gets in again, you can kiss your health care goodbye, your doctors and nurses too!!"

I do not see any conservative posters on here chastising you on "cute or obnoxious names" for public figures. Does not bother me as it bothers them.

However, what proof do you have about kissing healthcare, doctors, and nurses goodbye? I did see a TeaParty poll that was faxed to doctors and the percentage of doctors that said they were going to retire if ACA came in, were from doctors of retirement age. Totally bogus poll.

Remember, the same was said of HMO's when they first appeared. They provide excellent care. I wish I had my Kaiser HMO available in The Villages.

I never chastised a progressive poster from using ridicule as a weapon. I only pointed out where that tactic comes from and what is usually the political bent of those who use it. It is an effective tactic, especially if you cannot win on the ideas.

Oh, and to answer the question from post #1, yes.

excuse me - but aren't poor people [and illegal aliens, too] getting free medical care in hospitals, emergency rooms and clinics that taxpayers are paying for in every state's budget for charity care/uncompensated care? aren't hospitals tacking on a fee to all services to offset the charity care/uncompensated care they are required to provide?

if poor people are dying because of no medical help - who is costing these medical providers so much money? and why are the poor people in hospitals, emergency rooms and clinics if they are dying off?

And that is what Obam's plan is fixing so please don't let a Rep destroy all that has been gained.

excuse me again - but if poor people are in emergency rooms/clinics receiving medical care at taxpayers expense - how can you say they are dying?

What I meant to say is that if people go to emergency rooms for care and they do not have insurance or money, Medicare picks it up.

Also, emergency room visits cost a lot more than clinics and Dr offices.

Also, without medical check ups, people get so bad before they see a doctor, that some of them die.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.
