JUST SAY NO IN NOVEMBER AMENDMENT 69.

No on Amendment 69: ColoradoCare would be too costly.
http://www.denverpost.com/2016/04/01/no-on-amendment-69-coloradocare-would-be-too-costly/
Amendment 69 would be devastating for Colorados economy, employers and their employees... It would limit health care choice, access and quality.
Under Amendment 69, ALL Coloradans will lose their current benefit plan, to be replaced by benefits yet to be determined, to be serviced by an entity yet to be identified, to include providers yet to be named.

A coop isn’t a government bureaucracy.
Another lie.
Socialized health care only works when only citizens get it and only for a short while, until the corruption take hold in any top down system, then it devolves into crap as there is no selective pressure to weed out bad policies like private systems have...
Sorry, anyone who is interested in freedom of medical choice SHOULD VOTE AGAINST THIS MONSTROSITY.
“Amendment 69 is starting over. It operates outside of the political loop. It’s twenty one local citizens.”
HOA Warning! HOA Warning!
In my entire lifetime, I cannot ever remember voting FOR any resolution, amendment, referendum, etc. to a state constitution. Why? Because they are ALL started by the group or people who want to benefit somehow from its implementation. The wording is overly long and complicated and convoluted trying to make the voter seem like they’re doing a good thing, but the implementation is mostly always very targeted and unlike what was on the ballot.
NO, NO.....hell no.
Paul Starr’s 1978 book is worth reading. Healthcare is a bit different. One difference, if the “supply” one is considering is doctors, that can’t be cranked out of a factory overnight. It takes, realistically, a decade to produce a doctor. Cutting corners could drop it to 4 or so at a minimum but not many humans could take it and the product would be quite inferior. Even ten years is grueling.
Even at ten years a good deal of that is 100+ hours per week. And this is not sitting behind a desk, it is scurrying all over a hospital fighting death and disease. Overproducing doctors reduces the quality of services for decades and it is difficult to restore public confidence once it is lost. I do believe doctors are probably the last profession that enjoys public trust. These factors do need consideration when folks start talking about changing healthcare.
Of course, there are many variables and some changes have already occurred. Find a website where they post photos of the graduating doctors at your nearby Med Scool. Those are the faces you will be looking at in 4 or 6 years. Notice anything?
The author clearly has no idea what a free market is. I suspect he is ignorant of other concepts and realities also. Can he explain the differences between the three major economic systems of a modern country? I’ll bet he can’t even name them.
Here, I will do it for you. Check out the local School of Pharmacy Residents for 2015-2016.

Let’s look at the Med School affiliated with Dr Hsiao’s University.
I could do this all day.
Another ‘expert’ brought in to show us deplorables that we don’t know sh!t.
No on 69 and any other spending initiative. It’s single payer through the back door.
Tax on businesses and corporations......up 6.5 percent
Payroll tax on an individual.....................up 3.5 percent
It would cripple CO. economy like Obamacare
I’m not sure what I am looking for. Other than a group of mostly attractive women in the first picture, I’m not seeing a theme.
I see lots of men in the other pictures. I see several different races and ethnicities.
I do see they are all young but that shouldn’t be a surprise.
What is it?
UnitedHealth Just Got Sued for Overcharging on Prescription Drugs
Kristen Bahler @kristenbahler October 6, 2016
According to a lawsuit from three customers.
If youve been waiting for some good news from the prescription drug world, youll have to look elsewhere.
UnitedHealth Group, the largest health insurer in the country, has been sued by customers who claim the company secretly overcharged them for prescription drugs, Reuters reports.
In a lawsuit filed Tuesday in Minnesota, three UnitedHealth customers claim they made co-payments for drugs that were more expensive than the actual cost of the drugs and UnitedHealth pocketed the difference. The lawsuit uses the contraceptive Sprintec as an example, for which one member allegedly paid $50, while UnitedHealth only paid the pharmacy $11.65 keeping the extra $38.85. While this was billed as a co-payment, the transaction is actually a hidden additional premium, the lawsuit claims.

I’m trying to get the word out as most people don’t bother too much with the amendments until they vote.
Most of the people I’ve talked to have already decided to vote NO. But I live in a small county and so we probably won’t influence things much.
