Too Tired to Keep Listening to this Health Care Bull...

I am getting so sick and tired of hearing complaints about health care reform - so it's finally time for me to add my two cents worth; that's worth about 200% more than the crap I have been hearing.
Let's get things straight - just because someone says something - that does not make it true! If you are asinine enough to believe everything you hear - stop listening! Turn off your television, your radio, your computer, your telephone and talk to no one - because believe it or not - a lot of people are laughing at you behind your back! The people who are not laughing at you are trying to figure out how to scam you out of everything you own - after all - you are apparently a gullible dumbass!
I backup what I say - I research and use facts - rather than believing what I hear, I check facts. So to prove we have real dumbass citizens in the U.S. How about the senior citizens who were caught screaming at town hall meetings 'Keep your government hands off my Medicare?' DUMBASS - Medicare is a government program; in fact it is considered a SOCIAL government health care program, a SINGLE-PAYER program signed into law July 30, 1965.
GOP SOLUTIONS: let families and businesses buy health insurance across state lines. This sounds great, insurance companies would be able to see their product to anyone, anywhere; allotting a greater range of insurers to select from. However, would the potential health insurance client truly be protected against insurance cancellation or be able to get insurance if they have a pre-existing condition?
New York State (for example) has specific laws to protect their citizens, such as;
In New York, your ability to purchase health insurance does not depend on your health status.
Group insurance is available to all group members without special limits or added cost based on your health status.
New York has limits on preexisting conditions limitations. There are rules concerning what constitutes a preexisting condition and the length of any waiting period that can be imposed on a preexisting condition. As a general rule, the amount of time you were covered under a prior plan counts toward satisfaction of any waiting period in a new plan if there has not been a break in coverage of longer than 63 days.
Insurance cannot be terminated if you become ill.
Individual and small group coverage is available on an open enrollment and guaranteed issue basis.
The cost for individual health and small group health insurance is the same for all. It cannot change based on health status, age, sex, or occupation.
Opening up doors for interstate insurance sales would mean that suddenly, the insurance companies doing in NY would find it more financially conducive to leave NY and settle in a state where they are not forced to comply with these regulations. Suddenly, insurance companies would be able to take advantage of NY State residents.
If you can't understand this - email me; I'll be happy to have my three-year old granddaughter explain it to you on your own level of understanding.
GOP Option 2: allow individuals, small businesses, and trade associations to pool together and acquire health insurance at lower prices, the same way large corporations and labor unions do.
Hmm, maybe if all of the states whining about state's rights cared about their citizens, they would have state options for small businesses just like NY does. The real problem here is that without Federal intervention, most states ignore these problems.
GOP Option 3: give states the tools to create their own innovative reforms that lower health care costs.
Again, giving the states the tools seems to be saying that the states couldn't figure this out on their own so they need help, in other words; Governmental Intervention!
GOP Option 4: end junk lawsuits that contribute to higher health care costs by increasing the number of tests and procedures that physicians sometimes order not because they think it's good medicine, but because they are afraid of being sued.
What do they consider a junk lawsuit? Second: has anyone ever attempted to find a lawyer that will even consider a medical lawsuit? The first problem is finding a lawyer, and just because you think you should have a lawsuit, doesn't mean that any lawyer will agree with you. For example: My sister went into the hospital to have an angioplasty - the insertion of a stent. She was to be in the hospital overnight, and resume normal activity over a few days after returning home. But, oh my, the doctor slipped and cut her aorta; she now has the same problems that a person having open-heart surgery would suffer - including the wired together breast-bone and months of therapy to go through. But, she was forewarned that a 5% chance of a problem occurring during the surgery existed. She even signed a paper which indicated she was made aware of the possibility and although tort law was created to assure a person would be compensated if another person acted negligently, whether or not that action was intentionally, resulting in the party being injured physically, emotionally, and/or monetarily. By the way; no local lawyers will take this case -- so, how could any lawsuit that makes it to trial be a junk lawsuit?
The other question I have in regards to limiting lawsuits is - would insurance companies pass their savings onto the public or to their shareholders?
Better yet; how much money has each of the person opposing the health care bill received from insurance companies? I think its time for a NEW law - lobbyist must put all money into a central fund - 1/2 of that fubnd will be used to fund National social programs - the remainder will be divided under a lottery system. Get business out of politics.
Next - repeal Bush's mandate giving tax credit to any company sending jobs abroad (I'm sorry that would be outsourcing jobs). Them make a new law - a special tax for every job sent out of the U.S. - tax cuts for jobs brought back to the U.S. Be reasonable - does anyone out there realize what was produced in the U.S. during WWII? In case of a real war, do we buy what we need from China?
Start thinking! Use your head!
