You're the Klueless King. You don't understand, even though an effort is made to dumb things down to your level. You add nothing to a thread but entropy.
well got the dumb part right...

How many times have we heard teary stories of some unfortunate person who needs an expensive medical procedure only to be told by their "evil" insurance company that the procedure is not covered? The lib broadcast networks (ABC, NBC, CBS) have run many of these stories over the years. Of course, these stories paint the insurance company as evil.
Now with the Death Panels coming, will the lib media say anything about the lack of compassion for the sick and dying? Of course not. And the dupes continue to belief that Death Panels are fictional.
yes the evil death panels...the evil panels that if you CHOOSE to, you can talk to a DR about how you want to be cared for in the event of a major illness where you no longer have the power to make choices....the Horror! It must be horrible to know that you have a choice in how you want to be cared for, and to make it yourself rather then tear your family apart trying to find out what they think is best, when they don't all agree.
And on a side note....so long as money is used to pay for medical cost...there always will be someone saying it cost to much to be able to do...unless your bill Gates rich...
If the cost would be 10 million dollars to keep a 99 year old alive hooked up to a machine for 5 years, but he could make it...but would never be awake...guess who most likely will not cover those costs? NO ONE...unless you privately pay it yourself...as you have the right to do ( but if it was me, I would never want someone to pay that for me..not the government, insurance, or family...hence why I could talk to someone of my choosing about end of life care to make sure that was followed threw...and the "death panel" would be covered and insured for me to speak to , and not pay for it.

Exactly. It's flat-out AMAZING the horror stories that come out of the NHS, and the machinations of the infamous NICE death panel they have (great Orwellian name, right?) - it's far worse in the UK then I would have believed, but it's a simple matter to read the stories online as reported in british newspapers. And I've never seen ANY of this reported a single time in any of the US lib media, and I watch a lot of TV news.
Death panels, by whatever name, by whatever implementation, are an inescapable part of any state controlled health care system - they are the key feature that makes rationing work. In cuba, eg, any fetus that shows any abnormalities whatsoever is immediately aborted by state rules. This is why cuba is usually cited by WHO for having low infant mortality, without giving the whole story as to how they came by their "good" stats.
Likewise, the recently re-instated "end of life counseling" is designed to badger vulnerable old people into ending care, with great financial benefits for the state health system. That's how they balance the books in socialized systems - kill the unhealthy. A horrifying but effective strategy.
more of the same bull ..
Rationing...Guess what Health care was always Rationed, it is, and it will be...end of story.
There has never been, universal, anything you need to stay alive no matter who you are health care for all...
In the US its Rationed....buy your income...plain and simple...your poor, you get less health care...your rich you get more...your very poor...you get health care if you make it to a ER...that's about it...
This is the standard leftwing equivocation using the word "rationed". Sure, if you have no money, you might not get health care, but you can always do what the 20 million illegal aliens the libs have invited into the country do - go to the ER and get it for free. Then, the hospital will costshift the expense onto insured people, their rates will have to go up, and then the leftwing screams about high insurance costs, when they and their policies are at the root of the problem. In the UK and canada and cuba and other statist societies, "rationed" means YOU CAN'T GET IT - IT'S ILLEGAL - KEEPING IT FROM YOU IS A MATTER OF >>>GOVERNMENT POLICY<<<.
The claim that REAL "rationing", at the level of REAL socialist-style rationing, exists in the US remains as dumb-cluck stupid as it was the first time a leftwing dupe said it.
WE ARE NOT CUBA!
WE ARE NOT THE UK!
why dont you try dealing with ..you know the USA?
I con't give a Flying F what they do in Cuba, or China, or the UK, or France...we are not there, we don;t have those there health care plan..so deal with ours or just shut up

Check your Health care plane with your insurance..does it say...unlimited coverage? NO...Does that mean if they can't cover all the costs ...you cant pay the rest? No...IF your on Medicare or what ever government health care plan...if something is not covered...guess what...you can pay your own cash and make it covered....Government run health care is not any different that Private in that ...they have limits to what they cover....Difference...Government does not drop you because your sick ( aka you need to use it thus cost them money and hurts stock price...)
You guys live in a dream world where somehow there is a place with non rationed health care..
And as for your "death Panals" get a grip...end of life planning has been around for quite a long time...the thing that changed...is that you can get it with some of the cost covered now. No one is saying, hey your old Die!
Not sure why I bother since you cant seem to get the most basic health care concepts right due to your rampant partisanship.
Hey Pockets I can agree that Americans have access to too much HC. Many Americans and illegals have easy access to the ER. This needs to be stopped.
Many costly procedures are performed because doctors must practice defensive medicine because the of Dem's beloved trial lawyers are always looking to sue.
Why did BO and Dems NOT put any tort reform in Obummercare? Easy answer right?
Here we go again, dumbing it wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy down so even Captain Megabrain can get it. The things I cite OBVIOUSLY are not inherent parts of being CANADIAN, OR CUBAN, or living in a country with a particular latitude and longitude, but are inescapable artifacts of SOCIALIST OR STATIST SYSTEMS, WHERE EVER they exist. Now, listen real carefully, einstein. When a good is free, the demand for it skyrockets. In order to not have a bankrupt system within days, the government inevitably imposes rationing. The record of such systems and leftwing ideology that operates hand-in-glove with it which goes back a hundred years shows that inevitably they will balance the budget by KILLING. Eg, Margaret Sanger, mother of the Abortion Holocaust, proposing forced sterilization of the retarded, her colleague William J. Robinson advocating chloroforming to death babies born with defects, obozo being ambiguous about infanticide in the illinois state legislature, etc etc etc etc. You (implicitly) and ridiculous appear to be arguing that duhhhhhhhhhhh - the horror stories just HAPPEN to occur everywhere there's a socialist or statist "health care system" - when in fact it's the INHERENT NATURE OF THE SYSTEM that results in the horrors.
In particular in the US system, the liberal left has always used incrementalism, whereby they get their slimey government claws around an american institution, and then step by step, turn it into a leftwing horror story. That's what they'll do with obozocare, and they've already started, looting half a trillion dollars from medicare to pay for their socialist nightmare, which inevitably will mean old people not treated, doctors leaving the profession or turning down medicare patients. The huge tax on the medical devices industry will probably nearly wreck innovation there, and tremendously run up the cost of everything from MRIs to insulin pumps to heart stents.
I got bored with your rambling far before the end. bla bla bla slippery slope socialist bla bla bla...
When you get very sick and your insurance drops you, or someone you know has a pre existing condition...Hope you enjoy it.
