Healthcare

[TonyM]

Republicans? Republicans, as in "wee the peepse" republicans ain't the only ones being fleeced by this illegitimate fustercluck and it was republicant pundits who helped usher it in.

Mehbe you could graciously provide a very brief synopsis of your article ... I ain't gonna trouble myself to read it.

O.W.

The article discusses these possible approaches

1 Trump and a Republican House dismantle major parts of Obamacare via reconciliation

2 — and replace it with something else

3 The Senate eliminates the filibuster and repeals Obamacare outright

4 Trump uses executive action to dismantle certain parts of Obamacare

How about we just repeal it and keep the damn government out of it.

There you go with that stinking COMMON SENSE thing again............ Really, one more time and its off to the re education camps for you!

I appreciate the bullit points ... but first, while we're on the subject, lets identify exactly what obocare is.

In a nutshell it's a get rich quick scheme for a handful of folks while providing little to nothing in return to the payees.

Who benefits and how? And I ask this in sincerity cuz I'm a victim of the VA ... well not victim, uh recipient, yeah that's it.

So I'm unfamiliar with the intricacies of obocare and other than recognizing it as a wholesale scam, I know nothing else about it.

Forgo the legaleeze and describe some of the benefits and the beneficiaries and perhaps how this ... program is more advantageous as opposed to the old fashion doctor patient relationship.

At your leisure.

Oscar, the VA needs to be abolished and replaced by The United States Armed Forces Medical Corps, modeled on the best atributes of the Army Corps of Engineers and the best functions of the V.A.. The Corps of Engineers and it's work , with some exceptions, has been one of the best examples of public/private interaction I can think of.

This same organization can purchase large amounts of healthcare and medicine from the private sector at discount prices to support veterans, national security and low income health care. The Surgeon General should head this organization as one of the joint chiefs of staff. Every states national guard force should include a robust medical compliment.

Veterans deserve health care 'up to and including' the best we can provide.

There is some synergy in the facts that V.A. and the obamacare mess both need to be fixed by government and at the same time.

You might just as well change those ujoints while you've got the trans out.

the VA needs to be abolished ....

Seditious, this is all well beyond the narrow confines of my field of expertise but I will say ... write this down, provide some detail and submit to the incoming crew for review and implementation.

I would only add two things and I'm going to walk on that thin line betwixt socialism and this cancer often hailed as free market capitalism. At the basic local level, yes but beyond this is taxpayer funded, government controlled industrial grade bidness.

Your healthcare plan must be available to our society in it's entirety if for no other reason than to avoid the perception of a divide ... and it's just the right thing to do.

Secondly the AMA who is complicit must be abolished as well in addition to AIG returning the trillions provided them by the previous traitor in cheef.

I suppose what I have in mind is a kinder, gentler Pol Pot sweep ....

I think that I would agree that some people deserve to bleed to death on the front lawn of a hospital but in reality we have a federal law, decades old, that hospitals can't allow that. How do you plan to fix that? Anarchy or compromise?

The government has never done anything more efficiently than the private sector. Ever.. Never.

Healthcare is a market item. What is the federal government's best purchase model? Who do we need to buy that commodity for? Who do we need to buy that commodity from? The generic costs less than an epipen and is available. No Congresssional hearings required.

Well, except killing people. They excel at that, and in industrial quantities at times, too.
