Or use the Stevens Act to break up Big Pharma and Big ins companies that dominate health care and set prices on every thing. Until we get all former congress out of the picture forever will still have Quid Pro Quo, you grease my hand I’ll grease yours.

Agree. Maybe going after the big money vermin behind Obamuncare is the better approach -- go after the huge malpractice awards, drug price fixing, FDA shenanigans, test gouging, hospital welfare (turn VA hospitals into gov funded welfare only hospitals and isolate them from our insurance plans, and send Vets to regular hospitals?).

But first, eliminate all waivers. ALL must live under Obamacare rules. All.

Hubby is Ret. SCPO 20 yr career Navy, both of us are SS age thus Medicare is our Primary and Tricare Life secondary.

Both suck. They are Rationed, fixed and restrictive ‘health care’.

He just had his second partial knee done. Medicare forced a Over Night Stay in the hospital, even though he was quiet capable of coming home the same day after a few hours of observation. That bill will be over $60K from past experience.

And I bet that ER trip I had to make last Friday for something that my IDIOT PCP could have just called in a script for Nystatin powder, oh, I forgot they don’t do that any more. I KNOW what a stupid skin Yeast infection looks like, had way to many not to know, but unless I see you no SCRIPT next appointment is 1 month away ‘do you want to come in then’. Half my body would have been covered and bleeding if I did that. I learned the hard way NO Minor Med clinics. All you are prescribed for is Athletes foot cream 1% that will not work keeps the area to moist. Not Nystatin powder.
