Obama talks about Health Care. Plays to the bleeding heart crowd. He does not once touch on the real Problem?
High mountain tracker asked:
Fraud. Theft. And the blind leading the blind in Government managed
medical care. MEDICARE and MEDICADE. If you stopped these
two factors involving The above. You could afford to cover every man
woman child in this country with the best care in the world. But he
will not go after the failed entitlements of the Democratic Past.
Whats your thought America.
i wish we had assessments of every program. and get rid of every one of them that are failing. we’d balance the budget in weeks.

the truth is, Obama actaully stops all of these
Obama wants Universal healthcare, similar to the system they have in Canada. Bascially what this is, is that the government covers just about all medical fees. When it comes to visiting the doctor, getting prescription drugs, everything is free to the regular guy. no fees, no medicare, medicaid nothing, its just all covered by the government. Sounds glorious eh? Well, im from Canada and believe me, it is. the only healthcare costs you pay are the ones you will use for unnecessay things like plastic surgery and things like that. ALL PRESCRTION DRUGS ARE COVERED and everybody in america is covered. Some surgical procedures will only be 60% covered and may not be entirely payed for, but its still much better than the broken system america has right now.

It’s the fraud in these programs. In MediCare it’s primarily the Doctors, Insurance Companies, Hospitals -$5.00 aspirin stuff,
In Medicaid – it’s the PEOPLE. On top of the above, you have people who are NOT entitled to it who abuse it. It’s literally criminal.
Fix these programs and all will be well
Throw the abusers in jail and let only those who really need them have them.
Costs would plummet.

We would never see any health care plan under Obama if God forbid he should manage to get elected. Greater minds than his have tried and never been able to come up with a viable plan.

Medicade-Medicare. The two largest single systems for white collar
crime to flourish. There are no stop gaps in these systems to keep
from being fleeced to death. Ask the dems why that is so., For we
at the Federal Law Enforcement level have had proposal after
proposal blocked and turned down for funding By the democrats.
We could have this problem cleared up in two years. Given the manpower and legal resources committed to deal with the tidal
wave of the theft and corruption. But no they turned there backs
and walked away. So don’t feel real warm and fuzzy about an all
dem government coming up. We will go into the aybiss of hell.

I recently asked a friend (orthopaedic surgeon) if all physicians in this country were to be put on a government salary (say $100,000 to $300,000 depending on years of experience), would this bring the runaway medical costs under control? His answer: Yes His additional comment: It will NEVER happen.
