Lying sacks of excrement like this need a beatdown.
Yes, I’m in a fowl mood.
The writer of this article refers to this study bu the Kaiser Family Foundation :

Well if U.S. News says it’s true it must be...right?
Where is the barf alert?
This is my favorite:
“3) Doctors will revolt... What will they do? Become accountants?”
HAHA! We got you MDs! You can’t quit because you HAVE NO CHOICE!
I keep reading that “there’s no “public option” in the current plan” but...what happens when someone who can not afford insurance is required by law to buy a plan?
I could solve homelessness by requiring everyone buy a house.
I could solve hunger by requiring everyone to buy food.
The MSM is on a full court press to shill for this. Of course they are not paying the bills.
Mr. Newman is obviously an Obamist.
I saw this quote on an anti-obamacare facebook page:
A wise man said this “So we just passed a health care plan written by a committee whose chairman says he didn’t understand it, passed by a Congress that exempts themselves from it, signed by a President who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn’t pay his taxes, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that’s broke?”
Wrong on so many levels. I’ll tackle just one. Most of
my colleagues I have spoken with are planning their exit strategies. I have heard everything from MBA school to other (a quilt shop for me) to out and out retirement. You will see docs leaving practice in droves over the next 4 years
“will reduce government deficits by $143 billion through 2019, thanks to new taxes and fees”
Yeah, thanks. Sounds like a great cost saving plan.
MSM drinking the kool-aid. This writer is lapping it up by the gallon...
What happens to that money today? Does it go into a lock-box with sign that says "Do not open until 2014"?
That is a rhetorical question.
This must be a released democrat talking point because I've seen it brought up a number of times on liberal sites and news. Well, those investors could be stupid, for one. But more likely they are remembering that Obama cut backroom deals to give huge coin to the insurance industry as I recall.
Why does Barack Obama need a White House communications staff, when he such such an obscenely compliant media that will happily carry his water on virtually every policy matter?
This is written by a snarky liberal. Who does he think doctors are, all 30 years olds? No many are 45+ years, have made money and still can be earn living outside of their practice. Many can and will cut out if they are put in a position where their earnings do not reflect their work.
The liberal mentality: Fight those damned facts with lies.
“The Congressional Budget Office—which is probably the most reliable, nonpartisan number-crunching outfit in Washington”
LOL.
The fact is that the charade of collecting taxes for four years, before any “benefits” kick in is a massive charade that people still do not understand.
The Congress is not collecting premiums for four years and banking them to pay for future benefits; the money that is collected will be spent, and when it is time to start paying for those benefits in 2914, the cries for a new funding source will be overwhelming.
Charles Krauthammer was talking about this very thing, and in his view this will drive making a National Value Added Tax (VAT) one of the major issues for the 2012 Presidential race...
The U Snews is hardly a reliable source these days. All they do is report the Obama mantra!
