True. Nothing like the good old OASIS discharges to waste valuable clinician time. I think the administrative savings claimed by single payor system might be a bit high.
The links I looked at were averaging about 10% payroll type increase in taxes for UHC. Would that be an improvement for most people?
My group insurance runs me $800 per month out of pocket, so I'd save a bundle. Those who have large pool group coverage would see their rates increase most likely.
The FACT remains - your area HAS NOT EXPERIENCED the illegal immigration invasion as my area has. It would be IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOUR AREA TOO HAVE EXPERICENED THE NUMBERS - You are not on the border where a MAJORITY of illegal immigrants are coming from!
And in the Phoenix Metro area - over 1/2 of crimes are related to illegal immigration - and this includes human smuggling, kidnapping (Phx is #2 in the world now for kidnapping), murders, assaults.
New York State has not experienced a 2+ Billion Dollar expenditure for Illegals or 7 Billion as has California.
AZ has now cut out housing assistance for illegals. No more in state tuition for illegals. No more extraordinary financial assistance for medical (life saving only - splinter in your finger? Too bad).
New York Officials Welcome Immigrants, Legal or Illegal - The New York Times
There are 3.85 million illegal immigrants in the country, according to Robert Warren, chief of statistics for the Immigration and Naturalization Service. California has the greatest number, with about 1.6 million. New York is a distant second, with 510,000, followed by Texas, with 405,000, and Florida, with 373,000.
The Social Contract - Study Reveals the High Cost of Immigration to New
New York state is home to 20 percent or more of the U.S.'s total immigrant population. Nearly 500,000 illegal immigrants are believed to be in the state - with some 400,000 or more living in the New York metropolitan area. One-third of New York City's population is foreign born, a higher percentage than during the great waves of immigration at the turn of the century.
Flat fee physican practices are cropping up all over. They don't take insurance (cuts down their costs of billing).
And the time it takes for the doctors haggling with the insurance company for payment for services the doctors deemed necessary. Been there, and seen it first hand.
This is a great opinion, but I am not sure what part of the Constitution says this.
Can you help me out and quote the section which supports this idea for me?
Thanks!
LOL.. it's called living in a SOCIETY.. it's the governments job to protect it's people, to protect the country..
If we're going to say it's not, then we'd have to take back many reasons we do things.. like Invading Iraq or Afghanistan.
It's common sense and is implied !
The constitution was set up in order to protect people from government and from governement from going overboard. There are many things that have ocurred since it's inception that have built this country up to where it is. Simply because it wasn't written in the constitution didn't mean that it couldn't exist!
Times have changed.. things change and evolve. As have our country and the needs of it's people.
To say that the government doens't have a responsibility to look out for the health of the nation as a whole is ..well absurd

Some would argue it would be the Preamble.
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence,[1] promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

I must give more reps to others before I can rep you.
