How many in Obama's administration have published articles on rationing health care?

I've read a few articles on the internet and found them to be true about the President's advisors recently publishing articles about rationing health care. How many people does it take in your administration to call a duck a duck? Why hasn't President Obama denied or acknowledged this? This would clear the airwaves with the "unplug your grandma" theme or "deathers." I don't know why any administration would not want to be clear on why these people are advising our President.How many in Obama's administration have published articles on rationing health care?News flash: we already have rationed health care. Right now it's rationed by insurance companies. And they are skimming off 20% administrative overhead.



News flash: we already pay for heath care for the poor. Hospital emergency rooms are required by law to treat anyone who comes through their door. This loses money (ER care is among the most expensive) so the hospitals charge all the other patients to pay for the indigent ER patients. This is the status quo that needs to change.



News flash: A number of states already have "caps and tort reform" and the insurance companies have not lowered the cost of malpractice insurance. However, including legal fees, insurance costs, and payouts, the cost of the suits comes to less than 1.5 percent of health-care spending.

.How many in Obama's administration have published articles on rationing health care?Quite a few. But remember, rationing already occurs in the USA. Insurance companies ration care, but no one seems to mind.



I am always amazed how many Americans seem not to be aware about the issues with healthcare relying on FOX and other sources to spread misinformation about the healthcare system of the USA and those abroad.



First of all, Obama wants to make insurance more available to all and change the system so that it is cheaper. He also wants change so that the insurance companies find it harder to get out of paying for treatment. The system he is proposing looks similar to that which works in Holland and Switzerland where private companies are involved in providing insurance.

Second, of course universal health-cover sucks. That is why we in Western Europe have it. We think, hmm, our healthcare system sucks. I know, lets keep it. I guess that is the same with Japan and Canada as well.

Third, Obama campaigned on reforming the healthcare system. He said he wanted to make insurance more available and he was elected by the American people to do this.



FACT - the US has higher death rates for kids both for kids aged under one and those under five than western European countries with universal health coverage.

FACT - American insurance companies push up prices and work to stop paying out claims on those they cover.

FACT - the USA spends more on healthcare PER PERSON than any other nation on the planet.

That means that a dead American four year old would have had a better chance of life if they were born in Canada, France, Cuba, Germany, Japan etc, all of which have universal health coverage.



Last of all if you do not like the policies that Obama was elected to bring in, he can always be voted out of office in 2012.How many in Obama's administration have published articles on rationing health care?Think about this: Unless you are VERY rich, the insurance companies tell you what medicine you can take, how often you can get a checkup, which specialists you can see, and make many other decisions for you.



What's the difference?|||Everyone except liberals knows that if we get universal health care we will get rationing in health care because there will be no choice.
