From: Mike Hunter on 22 Mar 2010 11:56 When I had a heart problem 24 years ago I had heart bypass surgery the very next day. When one of my friends had and attack while hunting in Canada he was told he would be placed on a monitor and would be scheduled in five to seven weeks for surgery. He paid to be flown to the US and had bypass surgery the day he arrived. Which care would you prefer?

There was a call of end of life counseling. Taken to extremes, it was called a "death panel". Is there any precedent? Yes. The medical industry can, (has and will probably go further), a concept called "denial of services". If you dont have the insurance coverage, and if you dont have the cash in hand, you may be denied services which would have kept you alive. In contra to some of the heroics of the past, this will be "pay as you go, or go earlier"

Actually the Republican party stuck to its principles of smaller government and more personal liberties as set down by the founders of our REPUBLIC of individual sovereign states "edspyhill01" <edspyhill01(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:be301cdb-6112-4d3d-8b7c-a06e765b9da2(a)u9g2000yqb.googlegroups.com...

Are you saying that the republican party has been wrong to take a purely partisan stand against everything Obama attempts to do? I think they are wrong and it sounds like you agree with me. |
