nobamacare = stay healthy or die. Good luck everyone.

LBJ predicted in 1965 or thereabouts that American physicians would become in time the biggest boosters of Medicare because it would guarantee them steady payments from the hapless treasurey. Was he wrong?

He was right for about 50 years.

Probably a random rant . That is why I question it.

This is a fabulous Dem idea, because it also solves another problem, Social Security. If we could just bring life expectancy down 3-4 years, we’d be doing great - in fact, we could spend the money on education, the poor, etc...

Was that an email from Medicare, your insurance company, or some random rant forwarded from who knows who?

Well, it had FWD,FWD,FWD,FWD in the title, it must be true.

I am a hospitalist (a physician that sees only hospitalized patients) and this is most emphatically not true. I supposed some forms of managed Medicare could try to make that rule but it would never stick. It is illegal to deny people emergency care

and they have a firm foothold, thanks to the spineless GOP

This seems to be a recurring theme but I am at a loss to understand how a law enacted without a single republican vote in either the House of Representatives or the Senate can be blamed on the spineless GOP. Possibly those throwing stones could have done better, but without a majority I don't see how.

Killing old people is Obama’s plan for reducing the Natoin’s health care. Pretty obvious what the elite are doing here. It will also wipe out a bunch of pesky American-American whitey voters who cling to their guns, constitution and God, - sooner than later.

Wonder how that works if you are arrive by ambulance due to trauma or something like a heart attack or stroke; imagine folks on gurneys in the hallway waiting for their own doctor to come admit them. We should not be surprised, the health care system is now managed by people who know nothing about actual health care.

Romney was called a liar for warning us this would happen.

The inventor of ObamaCare was not convincing.
