   15,000 dead every day. It’s not the best, it’s third world.Anditt costs twice what any country with brains is spending. If Newt has to stand in line for his lipo, while kids and their moms get treated and insurance companies don’t hold Americans for ransom–waah wah wah.

   And I knopw somebody will bring up tort reform. If you add up all of the premiums and the scary runaway jury awards, it amounts to about 1.6% of US health care costs, and you have to know, if you aren’t an idiot, most of those claims are for real damages.

   Instead of “Tort Reform” how about AMA reform and take away the license to perpetrate bad medicine from the incompetents!

   Hey guys, we all know it’s the people who are victims of malpractice who are the real problem What right do you have to seek restitution? Just like Halliburton should set the terms of how rape victims are compensated the insurance companies should be in charge of malpractice restitution. Who says money doesn’t buy influence?

   How about a class of “quack” medicine, quite voluntary; if/as people start finding something there that works, promote it to “real” medicine. It’s just real hard to make big bux on food and vitamins, and you can’t patent them.

   Someone should write a book about you people. It could be called “Gullible’s Travels”.

   Since you’re so smart, I guess you won’t be using Medicare when you’re 65.

   Everyone is an expert on health care, and no one really has the answer.

   I think anyone who wants to join the rest of the civilized world and create a single-payer system has the answer.

   I don’t know which piece of future news is scarier.

    Probably because you can afford not to use it. Most people can’t. I know my mom can’t, and she worked three different jobs for over forty years.
