I've told you before, I've worked in medicine. Many doctors agree reform is needed, and more than tort reform. A good number speak to needing a two tiered system in which those who can afford pay for care and their own insurance, and another that the government pays for. Care costs money and will never go back to bartering with chickens.
And it is not likely to cost any jobs, and does attempt to encourage growth in primary care doctors, which would also lead to more jobs. So, you may well be wrong with your claims here.
All your opinions yet you ignore what others say, why? It is a fact we have a doctor shortage now and more will be leaving the profession. it is a fact that this bill is flawed yet spends trillions and you call that a good first step? It is a fact that it forces small business to offer insurance and the offset tax credit does not offset the cost of healthcare thus it is a net gain in costs for the employer yet you believe that won't affect jobs?
Boo, you don't seem to have any concept on what it takes to run a business and are blinded by the rhetoric coming from the govt. Get all the facts and make an intelligent decision. We do indeed need healthcare reform but this POS doesn't reform healthcare, it creates a greater entitlement.
I am visiting Ohio and just took my parents to the doctor. Their doctor is getting out of the business because of healthcare reform, his words not mine, and he stated that others are doing that as well. Now someone is wrong here and I am not prepared to support your whims and opinions when it costs the taxpayers trillions. Is that how you handle your personal finances?
