what the hell does “the truth will out” mean?

I think its something to do with that “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy thing.
Excellent explanation, basic 1st year economics.. how nice would it be if more people understood it.
RE:
The poll from Friday showing that something like 46% of US physicians would quit rather than practice under CommieCare is a perfect example of supply being reduced as the amount offered for that supply is reduced.
I’m interested in this poll. Could you kindly provide a link for this or tell us which outfit did the poll ? Thanks.
Hmmmm. Yes, I can see my doctor 3 times a day soon?
That should bring this sucker down. I am a very good talker, I can tie 2-3 doctors up for 3 hrs for each visit./sarc
What good is free healthcare if no one can see a doctor?
Actually, my doc said he is quitting healthcare and just retiring. I am trying to make an arrangement that he can continue to see us under the table at his house.
It is my understanding that one of the provisions of NAFTA was to shut down any medical practice less than 100 miles south of the Mexico-US border.
My cousin was getting an alternative treatment for cancer (i.e., ozone therapy) from a Mexican physician, and his clinic was shut down; her cancer returned, and by the time she found the physician again, it was too advanced to stop, and she died.
Unfortunately unless they have taken economics in university they most likely will not. Highschool economics is barely taught in public schools and unfortunately majority of private schools as well.
The thing is depravity + crashing health care will mean total catastrophe. Because the demand will SKYROCKET as a result of the depravity inducing the illness. My “free stimulus” pay check mentality is going to have people get AIDS and screw around.
What is going to happen is death quarantine camps or complete national obliteration of the crops. Because sometimes it is better to burn half the crops than let it all rot at once under a plague.
Thus my prediction is that Political Correctness since AIDS came out, and now along with lack of medical isolation and closing hospitals, it’s going to be a prime vector for one of the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse.
I can’t wait to see this whole thing regressing into middle Ages type ghettoing of the sick from the healthy.
That is incredibly sad. I heard that both Costa Rica and India both have quite developed health tourism
Didn’t Obama tout about insurers and drug makers...the bad guys...well stocks jetted up for them....of course...so as always they will fair quite well in the NEW Climate Change!.....
....”stocks rose in part because the bill passed by the House will extend benefits to 32 million uninsured Americans......... That means increased business for insurers and drug makers....... Many of the key points of the bill will not go into effect for several years.”

Thanks for the link.
Took the kids to their pediatrician this morning. I asked her opinion.
While she supports the notion of health care available to all, she lamented it will wreck costs. There is a minimum figure needed to maintain a good medical practice, and financing must be arranged to encourage continuation of that practice. Biggest complaint is where patients used to show up at their doc subject to a $20 co-pay, now they’ll just start hitting the emergency room at their convenience for everything - at say $800/visit, paid by the gov’t.
Supply and demand indeed. By “lowering” the cost of all health care, people will clamor for ever more expensive care because they won’t have to pay for it (duly ignoring that _everyone_ will end up paying far more, as the price must be paid).
I agree with this....politically even if the Repub.’s win the next election....they will look bad as the bill’s requirements begin to be revealed for what they actually are.
... And frankly if the R. Party continues to push Romney he will do little if anything to change the course as he supported and helped the lead for Mass. heathcare.
As for the “racism” issue....I learned awhile back not to play in their park. Someone brings it up to me I am quick to say any conversation ceases if they remain on that point. The race card is history, they just NEED it to justify themselves when backed into a corner.
I’m glad you asked. I was afraid to. LOL
The biggest insanity of this entire healthcare debate is the premise that a monopoly will yield better service at a lower price than a competitive market. There isn’t a single example throughout human history where this is true.
TV is leading us to serfdom.
A very good article! The comments are excellent as well.
I agree with your doctor - but this was never about lowering the cost of healthcare, it was always about the gov’t seizing control of the healthcare system. The cost of this obamanation of a HCR law is pouring gasoline on the already burning fire.
Anyone who thinks our financial woes are over and that, as we are constantly told by the MSM, “the economy is improving” needs to pay closer attention. We entered negative territory in terms of productivity as a function of debt, and this is going to have a bigger impact on HCR than hoping the Supremes take the case, IMHO. See:

And remember, this is BEFORE all the added debt created by HCR, Doc Fix, and anything related to Cap and Tax or other marxist programs.
