With all of the problems our system of socialized medicne is having, Congress is poised to extend its coverage, rather than restrict it. I think we'll see even more physicians opting out as time passes and the burdens of this system grow.

The Mayo Clinic has recently opted out. Is there anyone in the medical community with a greater reputation?

It never ceases to amaze me that people think government makes something less expensive just because it forces somebody else to pay for it. Seniors need to realize that prescription drug benefits just pass the bills on to their grandchildren. It also passes more expensive bills on ta' boot.

The practice of medicine becomes more miserable by the day. Looking around for greener pastures is a waste of time. Sometimes I think the only solution is to retire or do something else for a living.

If Hillary becomes President, that will be sooner rather than later.

Much like VA healthcare...the system seems to exist more for the people "working there" (I use this somewhat 'eupha-mystically')...than for the patients...as there is no shortage of workers only service. imo
