I'm still trying to figure out why it take 1,000 pages to cover this, and still no one understands it. Two things need to be addressed, both health care itself and how it is paid for. The big debate, and I did hear Obama address it, is the 'end of life' phase of care. Having been an emergency nurse and seen what can happen at that point, there are going to need to be discussions about 'how far' we go on that type of care, and then the fireworks will REALLY start!

I guess that means that socialized medicine is now becoming socialized health insurance? When I worked in Corrections, while I was getting my Computer Science degree, one of the things I learned is, when a criminal starts changing the details of his story to make it more believable, it’s a sure sign that he is lying.

Doctors, hospitals and labs are all exploiting the carriers and the public, as well, carriers respond with higher costs as a result, and the pharmaceutical industry is always in the mix. Doctor network PPOs and HMOs should be abolished, as well.
