We can believe the numbers when the top ten standards of living nationally do not include ours and everyone of those countries have national health care.
This debate is over. HCR will pass.
Don't matter about apples and oranges, KK. The President smashed the far right down last night, and the American public, including many conservatives, have been stomping on the far right all day. Protest all you want. No one cares.
A majority election with a majority Congress is not a dictatorship.
It is called American politics.
You lost, and you will abide the results. You have no choice.
Of course we have a choice. Until this regime suspends further elections.A majority election with a majority Congress is not a dictatorship.

And I know this to be true from experience.
This year on my bi-annual echiocardiogram (defective valve has to be checked often, good thing my pre-existing birth condition is covered by insurance) it took me 2 months to get the appointment. Usually it takes 1-2 weeks.
I believe this, but I question why with such an increase in demand, that supply is not increasing. It seems to me that with such an increase in demand, there would be a massive move to fill that demand. At least we seem to believe that this is how capitalism works. Unfortunately, what it tells us is not so much that there aren't enough people who want to fill these positions, but that there are too many obstacles in the way to get these people in place. For instance, why is it that there is such a long wait for individuals to get into nursing programs to begin with? In many states, the wait is as long as four years just to be accepted.
The doctors in our state make very little money from those on the govt subsidized health insurance.
Like you said I think there are many obstacles too, from the cost of education to the availablity of educators. Also with very low profit margins for doctors seeing the patients on the subsidized care there is very little motivation for others to get involved.
Good post man!!!
Where are the Dr's going to come from to give care to 40 million new insured people?
You really believe this?Where are the Dr's going to come from to give care to 40 million new insured people?
We will see some type of reform but it will certainly be watered down from the massive one that the liberals in congress have been attempting to shove down out throats.
The Public option is toast. 44 democrats now know they don't have a chance in hell of getting re-elected should they sign off on this. The libs are gonna be the ones who have to suck it up, thank God for that.

Of course I lost, I didn't vote Democrat or Republican, we always lose. No choice is a dictatorship, period. You support dictatorship, you should move to China, since the US isn't suppose to operate like that. If it does, then we are no longer the US.
The fundamental question that the Obama administration has never answered is a simple one: How can it treat 50 million new patients with no extra doctors?
A new report from the American Association of Medical Colleges underscores the urgency of this concern. The Association notes that the United States now suffers from a shortage of 15,000 doctors a shortfall that is expected to grow to 125,000 in 15 years. And, the Association reports, if universal health insurance is passed, the shortage will grow to over 150,000 by 2025.
While the number of elderly people in the U.S. is expected to grow by 60 percent over the next decade and a half, the number of doctors will increase by only about 6 percent (Total U.S. population will rise by about 17 percent over the same period).

KK, frustration such as yours leads to illogical statements, such as yours. Think before you type...

Doctor Shortage Will Worsen Health Bill Impact
Obama says there will be no rationing; and everyone will have the best of all insurance programs and healthcare services. And it won't cost one dime. Obama really is the messiah, isn't he?
