"I'm simply pointing out that pretty much EVERYONE -- even the most knowledgeable leftwingers, recognize that Obamacare will stifle innovation." What orfice do you pull these fantasies from? Sorry - that was meant for Dave!

>> These things have nothing to do with Obamacare...these are practices that become necessary when cost has gone crazy, as it has in the US. They have been done at some limited way in the past and now. The problem is that docs pocket the difference in profits and don't really charge any less. You don't know what you're talking about. They have everything to do with Obamacare. It has little to do with cost and everything to do with a shortage of primary care providers. You just don't go in and rip out the best health care system in the world by its roots. It was stupid, and now it is on autopilot. It should have been done as a rational analytical process, but the determination to enact legislation -- ANY legislation, no matter how bad -- turned it into a political process. If you were able to get past your extreme left wing ideology long enough to think about it objectively it would be clear to you what a cluster fuck this is.
