And you are not offering any significants solutions to an impending train wreck. I am.

I'm sorry, but I don't consider what you've suggested as a viable solution. It makes the problem worse.

You can disagree but until you present a way to decrease costs by at least 30% then you are not participating in the core issue of the discussion.

I've been clear about how to do this. Just cut health care quality. Use less imaging and more gut feel. Quit prescribing Zoloft and start prescribing generic Prozac. Instead of treating cancer patients that have minimal chance of long-term survival, send them home without treatment. Stop doing $250,000 liver transplants -- if you have liver disease, too bad.

Instead of treating EVERY PERSON, regardless of their financial status or insurance coverage, at your county hospital emergency department, start turning them away.

You can easily cut costs by 30%. But the quality of health care is going to drop to what you get in other countries.

Dave is one of the parasites that LIVE off the broken system. He's got a financial stake in keeping it broken. He's PART of the 30% of useless overhead.

I sent Pat Buchanan's article to one of the more conservative members of my family and this is the email I got back.........the "he" in the response is Obama......there is no mention of Buchanan and his article:

He has been charming the masses, he is very seductive with his "change" theme as he knows that is what people want. He is a brilliant speaker, but if you really pay attention, you realize he is talking at you not to you and not saying anything. Just flowery words. Now that Wright has really shown his butt, Obama is looking more and more like a politician that talks the talk but does not walk the walk. He has a real credibility issue as Wright has been like this for the entire time he has known him and he is just NOW denouncing him. VERY BAD AS TO HIS JUDGMENT.

We have all known those types! AKA silver tongued devils!

Unfortunately, the "herd" is blindly following him. He is like the pied piper leading the mice. People better wake up before it is too late otherwise he will be the DNC nominee.
