The AMA-Rockefeller strangle hold that controls medical schools limiting the supply of doctors. The oil based pharma monopoly that curtails homeopathic medicines ie. banning hemp products.<br />The most important changes must first be addressed to even get to any of these things.<br />The decertification of the corporation UNITED STATES FOR AMERICA. The re-establishment of the United States of America with the organic Constitution with the original 13th amendment, and go from there. Kill the 14th amendment which made newly freed slaves the first (wards)federal citizens of the corporation and created corporations with the legal rights of a super citizen. All Americans should be Sovereign Citizens with no entity nor man only the creator above them. Therefore any government exists at our pleasure not the other way around.<br />I know its a big struggle.<br />“I would rather have a big burden and a strong back, than a weak back and a caddy to carry life's luggage”Northpalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03444659659570553524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401694557024894060.post-37332004763937355572009-08-27T18:40:04.157-04:002009-08-27T18:40:04.157-04:00You know, some jobs don't need to be outsource...You know, some jobs don't need to be outsourced to non-English speaking people...and I'm thinking that making random plugs for insurance on blogs is one of them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401694557024894060.post-83707205268113893852009-08-27T00:14:24.531-04:002009-08-27T00:14:24.531-04:00Maybe the people needs more Health Insurance benef...Maybe the people needs more Health Insurance benefits and it will started the program from the Government who charge high taxes for the Insurance Company and carried to pay by the people..

That end cannot be accomplished by political means, as Scripture teaches, and cannot be accomplished by political means, as a brief commonsensical glance around the political room will tell you. When it happens, there will be political results, but political means will not have spiritual results. Christ is the Savior of our culture. Christ does not need our culture to rally around to save Him. [snip]<br /><br />We cannot get anything right in the political sphere until we get it right in the Church first. When we get it right in the Church, other areas will follow. When Christians are worshipping God rightly, in spirit and in truth, we will then be in a position to reform an existing party, or establish a new one. Until then, we will continue to have trouble locating our own rear end, even if allowed to use both hands.<br /><br />Now when the reformation in the Church comes, it may result in establishing a party very much like what the Constitution Party ought to have been, or it may result in the restoration of one of the corrupted mainline parties. We shall see.<br />[snip]<br /><br />And complete outsiders, like ourselves, you and I, need to worship the Lord tomorrow, and we need to sing the psalms, hear the sermon, and come to the Table. Rise up, O Lord, and scatter Your enemies.<br /><br /><br />http://www.dougwils.com/index.asp?Action=Anchor&CategoryID=1&BlogID=6026larry whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05659637420532771765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401694557024894060.post-4533235235682599032009-08-26T04:55:51.278-04:002009-08-26T04:55:51.278-04:00Well, those independently wealthy enough to "...Well, those independently wealthy enough to "self-insure" generally already do so. Insurance is designed and sold to the less well-heeled, since (as Gilbert points out) the inherent inefficiency of the system does not strike the fiscally acute as a wise investment.<br /><br />I would prefer that insurance become less prevalent, but am yet loathe to abolish it by force of law. With certain exceptions, namely insurance policies that essentially pay out in the event that the policyholder is accused (or convicted) of a crime. I refer particularly to malpractice insurance. That's like selling "murderer insurance", to pay for an expert legal defense (and your bail) in case you happen to be accused of murder.<br /><br />Banning malpractice insurance would rapidly fix much of what ails the medical profession, even without tort reform (which is a difficult and potentially dangerous undertaking, however necessary). Medical malpractice is a crime. It should be treated as one, rather than as a liability issue. Conversely, if a doctor didn't do anything criminal, there is no excuse for that person who seeks to profit by bringing an accusation.<br /><br />Much...not all.<br /><br />I do not carry medical insurance, and...I used to wish for cancer or some kind of horrific accident all the time (I cannot say I was ever quite sacrilegious enough to <i>pray</i> for it). So of course I have a rather different perspective on the entire health care debate. A number of my family members also forgo insurance for various reasons, from personal wealth to poverty to ethical or scientific disagreement with current medical practices. Most of them do pray for good health, and I try to respect that.<br /><br />In a free market, low-cost catastrophic insurance should be commonplace. The reasons it is not are almost all directly related to existing government regulation of the insurance market. So I'm not easily persuaded that the answer to a lack of affordable insurance is to have the government be even more involved. And of course the actual policies being espoused in Washington are not particularly reassuring in that respect.<br /><br />The "public option" (and the regulations which will force similar provisions into ostensibly "private" options) being described hardly seems like 'insurance' at all in the traditional sense of the term. "We'll gladly provide your health care...if we feel that you're sufficiently valuable to society, meaning us, according to whatever criteria we wish to apply without your consent." That is not an assurance of any kind.<br /><br />But then, I neither want nor desire the 'care' they they would like to refuse to provide. So the entire issue is more of an abstraction from my point of view.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401694557024894060.post-26048078354324729282009-08-26T03:29:53.265-04:002009-08-26T03:29:53.265-04:00How does the person who cannot afford health insur...How does the person who cannot afford health insurance "revolt"?<br /><br />A few months back I was sitting in a (Las Vegas) pub having a discussion with the owner about this very topic. The owner stated to me that he wished that he could afford to purchase some sort of group health plan for his employees, but that the cost made such an endeavor prohibitive. Yes, he could provide the employees with a little something, but that not so little something would eventually lead to the business being non-existent and the employees without health care insurance and a job. Dilemma?<br /><br />And what about the employees? I have a casual relationship with nearly all of the employees of this establishment. My conversations with them have clearly indicated that they would like to be able to participate in some kind of health maintainence plan, but that it is cost prohibitive for them as well. They maintain their health as best they can, and they pray that they do not become significantly ill. <br /><br />One thing is for certain - those people want a choice that they currently do not have, but would like to have. Yes, the government is a piss-poor option to turn to. But with no other options available where else can those people turn? How can they "revolt"?<br /><br />Is this a matter of the 'Haves' and 'Have Nots' with the 'Haves' trying to convince the 'Have Nots' to continue to do without? Maybe the solution is to do away with private medical coverage and let every man fend for themselve. Then there would be no excuses. We would all have that "individual freedom" that is being spoken of.Derek P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17455878275375787323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401694557024894060.post-91668072528156753952009-08-25T23:48:40.429-04:002009-08-25T23:48:40.429-04:00If the government really wanted to help, they woul...If the government really wanted to help, they would require that anyone who says they are going to INSURE you would use a common sense approach to the word. IE - don't blow money people have paid you for their future medical (or other insurance) needs on the stupid things these companies do, and THEN do not want to pay up before having you fill out 92,000 forms or making you wait until your blood pressure is through the roof and you have to go BACK to the hospital. They seem to run these companies like Ponzi schemes. They are more worried about fancy advertising and the perks all this money brings them (like our government) instead of remembering where the money came from, for what and for whom (like our government). It seems to me they are ALL a bunch of crooks (like our government), feeding on all of us who work hard to make an honest living AND who pay for those who cannot OR WILL NOT pay their own way.<br /><br />I have to agree with Dr. Keyes and the example of people who will fight a disease, as opposed to those who wait for the death angel with a smile on their face. It is a person's CHOICE whether or not they eat right, exercise, etc. And it is a person's choice if they want to pay for health insurance. It is a person's choice to go to the doctor THEY want to go to - not the one the government decides - or like many people nowadays, are TOLD they can go to in a certain insurance plan.<br /><br />We have just been laid back for so long in this country, resting on the laurels of our forefathers that we will take most anything large corporations (like our government) dish out to us.<br /><br />We have forgotten who REALLY holds the power in this country and may end up reaping what our parents helped us to sow. If not, then it will surely be our children.

"Health" is considered a good because it consists of making the body fully responsive to the mind and spirit. In other words, we prefer to be healthy rather than sick because it increases our tangible freedom.<br /><br />Thus trading liberty for health care (leaving aside the fact that Obamacare won't even provide real health) simply doesn't make any sense. It's like selling your house to buy closet organizers...what is the point? But of course freedom is more valuable than a house...even one with organized closets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
