So, I'm paying Medicare premiums, insurance premiums (which aren't reduced because you're on Medicare), finding a lowering standard of care across the board, suspecting I have access to a reduced population of providers, having my prescriptions screened by federal and insurance bureaucrats, and dealing with more agencies, federal sub-contractors who've found a niche in the system doing monitoring, and the insurance company and their mail-order prescription plan. I can't keep up with it all. <br /><br />Meantime, Rufus, who's on VA medical benefits by virtue of the fact he enrolled before a magic cutoff date set by politicians, tells us we should rejoice and welcome the further expansion of the clusterfuck.<br /><br />I genuinely have pity on the physicians doing honest primary care services. Their administrative staff outnumber their medical staff from what I've observed, and it will only worsen.linearthinkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201292791445921817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-64842464257405750122009-12-15T23:09:48.815-05:002009-12-15T23:09:48.815-05:00Well, doug, I've been reading about that Ponzi...Well, doug, I've been reading about that Ponzi scheme, for goin' on forty years now. <br /><br />We're either in the midst of the disaster predicted, for the past forty years, or things will balance out on the new normal. <br /><br />Which will not be far from the old normal, based upon consumption patterns and hours worked to achieve the current level of material civilization.<br /><br />If we were to return to our mythical past, either Ozzie & Harriet or George & Martha, we'd be working far more hours to obtain those same goods.

Its goal is to ultimately provide sufficient real-world evidence to convince most rational people that the Medieval Warm Period was: (1) global in extent, (2) at least as warm as, but likely even warmer than, the Current Warm Period, and (3) of a duration significantly longer than that of the Current Warm Period to date.<br /><br />Why is it?<br />The project's reason for being begins with the claim of many scientists - and essentially all of the world's radical environmentalists - that earth's near-surface air temperature over the last two decades of the 20th century (and continuing to the present) was higher than it has been during any similar period of the past millennium or more. This claim is of utmost importance to these climate alarmists; for it allows them to further claim there is something unnatural about recent and possibly ongoing warming, which allows them to claim that the warming has its origins in anthropogenic CO2 emissions, which allows them to claim that if humanity will abandon the burning of fossil fuels, we can slow and ultimately stop the warming of the modern era and thereby save the planet's fragile ecosystems from being destroyed by catastrophic climate changes that they claim will otherwise drive a goodly percentage of earth's plants and animals to extinction. Believing all of these claims to be false, we felt that disproving the first of them was the best way of refuting all the rest, or at least making them moot...

Burris, Democrat of Illinois, has vowed that he will not vote for a health care bill that does not include a government-run insurance plan, or public option. <br /><br /><br />Brendan Smialowski for The New York Times<br /> <br />Senator Roland W. Burris And on Monday, after Democrats indicated that they were prepared to meet the demands of Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, independent of Connecticut, and strip the last vestige of a public option from their bill, Mr. Burris went to the Senate floor to warn that he had not committed to vote for the legislation. <br /><br />Mr. Burris, however, did calibrate his language: “I am committed to voting for a bill that achieves the goals of a public option: competition, cost savings and accountability,” he said. “I will not be able to vote for lesser legislation that ignores those fundamentals.” <br /><br />He added: “My colleagues may have forged a compromise bill that can achieve the 60 votes that will be needed for it to pass. But until this bill addresses cost, competition and accountability in a meaningful way, it will not win mine.” </i>bobnoreply@blogger.com
