Oh, are you mandated to buy health care insurance, now?

If and when you become Medicare eligible, you will be forced to join Medicare at penalty of higher costs if you join later and at worry of not being able to find a doctor brave enough to risk the Office of Inspector General.

I hear they have chiropractors in every town and there’s naturopaths in some parts of the country. You’re also welcome to buy your own blood pressure cuff and talk to the lady down at the General Nutrition Center. The Pharmacist has his/her own title.

Or, if you explain your theory about phony titles well enough and often enough, I’ll bet your doc will allow you to choose all your own meds, from now on. Or, you could spend a few years studying up on your own, HG.

Obviously not.

I doubt it.
I was reconstructed orthopedically in 1985.
In 2007 (or was it 2008) I had the lung-ebola stuff that they said
would kill me but didn't. I'm not often touched by "doctors" and never by choice.

You seem really pissed off that I have a different opinion than you.

Why is that? When I prefaced my remarks with "I don't like that service providers should have the government dictate reimbursment."

I am not in favor of government controlled healthcare.

I just think that ONE of the arguments against it is false.

Healthcare is NOT in the hands of the recipient, period.
Hell, we aren't even CONSULTED that I've seen. The heavy hand
of Big Brother either has a government title or a medical one.

What is the big difference? I still don't get to decide.

Look, doc.. we ALL have job titles.

Me, I'm an IATA certified Dangerous Goods Specialist. That means I can put explosives on planes.

Do I parade around waving this? Hell no.

"Doctors" do. I object to that. It's my opinion. Folks have those, you know?

For the record, I supported your position on the HPV issue and others.

I don't see why you are so pissed off at me.
