I've been taking care of myself my entire life, while you exploit people and live off of the sweat of their labor. So, blow me. You wouldn't know work if it reached up and bit you in your pampered ass.

My wife had prior to all this discussion of the ACA had not stopped to think about how many Anericans lacked healthcare insurance of could be denied it because of pre existing conditions. Her only conclusion is that the system is evil and that everyone should be covered.

She had always had coverage before ansd of course once we were married she was covered by my Bell Canada plan.

A fatal wait: Veterans languish and die on a VA hospital's secret list

(CNN) -- At least 40 U.S. veterans died waiting for appointments at the Phoenix Veterans Affairs Health Care system, many of whom were placed on a secret waiting list.
The secret list was part of an elaborate scheme designed by Veterans Affairs managers in Phoenix who were trying to hide that 1,400 to 1,600 sick veterans were forced to wait months to see a doctor, according to a recently retired top VA doctor and several high-level sources.
For six months, CNN has been reporting on extended delays in health care appointments suffered by veterans across the country and who died while waiting for appointments and care. But the new revelations about the Phoenix VA are perhaps the most disturbing and striking to come to light thus far.

This was not the VA or VA policy, this was individuals in the Arizona VA hiding their incompetence from the system.

A Government Run Hospital, The VA is blowing off people trying to see a doctor.
I'm enrolled in VA, had less than zero problems with them which is commendable given their work load. Hopefully the Teapublicans won't defund them further.

Yeah thats the problem when your needs are filled by the government. I would worry more about government default than any single party.We are very close to a collapse in case you did not know.

Even more treats of personal violence. They go on and on. This forum is going to hell in a hand basket!
