I've never really had the time to ask them what they think is going to happen but they all seem to agree with this 5 yr thing. I'll see one of them this weekend and if I get a chance I'll ask him about this.

Re: Obama Care

Everyone, especially those with aging parents may want to read about Obama's latest appointee (not only a recess appointment, but not even a hearing)

Morning Bell: The Rationer-in-Chief | The Foundry: Conservative Policy News.

$ 49K to extend a life one year, just to put into perspective a single cancer treatment costs approximately $ 25K.

This guy is supported by the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, the AMA and others in the healthcare industry....because he's going to limit their costs and help them reach greater profitability.

Berwick -- a pediatrician, Harvard University professor and leader of a health care nonprofit organization -- told an interviewer last year, "The decision is not whether or not we will ration care - the decision is whether we will ration with our eyes open. And right now, we are doing it blindly."

Re: Obama Care

I am afraid for my life. OOOOH!!! boogey man. It just doesn't have the same shock value Slinging Sammy. Conservatives have been crying wolf the last two years. Gansta punditry is no longer in style. Let's try Emo punditry next time.

The source you quoted is not jaded at all.

Find a point in the link that is not backed up by facts or evidence, then get back to me. I forgot all my links had to be from the NY Times or Huffington Post.

Wow, that's terrible....it should never happen. Fortunately it will never happen here seeing how the drug companies run the prison and ACA is private insurance centric. We're going to put a stop to this sort of thing though.

Terrible indeed, and hopefully, when all the hospitals are eventually run by the government there won't be anything more like this.

Let's hope it won't be as bad as the price we are currently paying.

Of course, the significant distinction is that those families can sue private insurers for damages.

A course of action that's coincidentally not available to veterans in mishaps that occur in a military hospital.

You're telling me that if you sign up to serve and get shot in a friendly fire incident you should be able to sue the US? Preposterous proposition. You are only entitled to damages if the a VA Hospital f's up your back surgery not if you pull your back while lifting a heavy box. And of course if you do pull your back lifting a box they give you time off and pay your medical bills too.
