New York Times writer, paul krugmen (spelling?), claims that healthcare reform is a great idea and is just a glorified model of Massachusetts's healtcare system......which is costing insurers millions................... I guess Obama should eloborate on his "you can keep your insurance" claims....... more correctly; you can keep your insurance (if the company can stay in business)......... I wonder what happens when private insurance goes out of business? hmmm..... can anyone say single payer system?

to answer OP's question - i do not know. i'm not that smart to figure it out ;)

 

I had an accident 2 years ago. I fell through a termite eaten floor that looked perfectly solid, and it was about a 12 foot fall. I was knocked temporarily unconscious, and when I came to my nose was full of blood and felt like it was broken and had maybe pushed up into my brain. I was quite dizzy and felt nautious as well. I also had a pretty nasty cut about 7 inches long on my chest from the rotten wood when I fell through.

 

So I had someone bring me straight to the ER of a local hospital. I'm a musician, so I didn't have insurance. I thought I might have brain damage, and so they did a cat scan as well as an MRI I believe. It was 1 of those machines you lie down in and go through on a conveyer belt. The tests showed there were no issues with my brain and no broken bones, fractures, or spinal damage.

 

Anyway, the thing that upsets me the most is that they did not even stitch up my obviously bad cut. And I showed it to the nurse MANY times. We're talking about basic stitches, something a family doctor could do for you. And because of this 1 inch of this scar has formed tissue that is pink and a big raised lump of ugly meat.

 

And to add insult to injury I recieved a $3500 bill in the mail 2 weeks later for the cat scan and MRI !!!! If Obama's new healthcare bill means that somebody like me will not be in the hole for $3500 just for a couple of body scans and complete lack of BASIC medical care, then I am ALL FOR IT !!!!!!!!!!!! I don't see how the new health care system could be any worse than it already was.

 

WOW allow me to be the first one to acknowledge that what happened to you sir was:

1. wrong

2. robbery

3. treachery

4. see #2

5. legal/legit way to rob people where justice/legal system together with all moral grounds of humanity turn the blind eye to, and should be corrected and brought to justice.

 

CAPITALIZM n. = money first, man/people second!

it's an old saying that stands so true till this day and can't be debated period. call me lenin, carl marx or whatever i don't care…..

 

why i consider Mr. Obama as a great man and a great leader? simple. the man is visionary. he sees and combines good from both worlds re: capitalism vs. socialism, just like UK, Canada, Sweden, and many other countries do.

 

oh yeah I love my blue chips while they still "blue"

 

@Dr. Lindsey – i'm so happy to read that your daughter's road to %100 success and recovery is upon horizon. and i wish her continued success from the bottom of my hart.
