Re: [Peckers_Pics] Re: Model Wars, PICS; Feb 2, 2011 / David Kato - Rest In Peace!



A major part of the problem is that American health care system does NOT work well. 
We get second or third class care for a premium price.  A person who has a stroke in any

European country has a 20% better chance of complete recovery than in the States.
If you have a heart attack in England or Germany, your recovery rate is almost a week sooner.
If you get cancer in France or Scandinaviaia your 5 year survival rate is more than 10% better.

In America we have great new shiny hospital buildings and our physicians drive fancy high powered cars, but the average male's life expentancy here is 5 years less than in Europe.  Women in other countries live 6 years longer. 

WE HAVE LOUSY HEALTH CARE and we pay more than anyone else for it.

to Phill Harris : a m e n.
we do not need to copy other peoples system , we do have one tested for centuries that works pretty damn good .
you are 100% right when you stated

.- this is the outcome
""Would it be too far fetched to possibly consider that some of those billions of $$ end up as bonus money for corporate executives who direct their employees to deny health care claims in far to many cases?

.- what we  must keep clear is USA constitutional  right , no questions , is a mandatory fact :

.-At the end we have
 That applies to members of any political party.
Suppose they might have ulterior motives?  In either party
corruption is in either party , is not the good of the wealthfare of  the country  ( as they proclaim ) to lead  them forward , is a personal gain  regardless of the means .
THAT is what we need to end.

ps: you are good with words , use them , lets make a loud noice for the change to take a go .

It would be nice if the USA Congress would base an all-new American health care system on the French model.  They spend around 1/3 of what Americans spend on heath care per person, but their methods produce better health care.  One big reason: insurance companies as we know them in the USA are not used.  American health care companies spend around 20% or so of their revenues on paying healt benefits.  Where do you suppose the remaining 70 to 80% of those revenues go to?
Would it be too far fetched to possibly consider that some of those billions of $$ end up as bonus money for corporate executives who direct their employees to deny health care claims in far to many cases?

Why would any well meaning, honest, caring politician not want his/her constituents to have the finest health care at the best possible price?  That applies to members of any political party.
Suppose they might have ulterior motives?  In either party?
