This is all over ABC Radio today, here in Michigan...Henry Ford Hospital is included in their report.

The propaganda push has begun in earnest.

Will Romney/Repubs have resolve against this??

Absolutely NO WAY.

It is up to us.

Most of these quoted physicians work for publicly funded entities.

I can see how someone who makes a living selling hypertension drugs might consider this ruling good for business.. but for slightly different reasons!

Institutional medicine, the AMA and medical academia has always been on board with Obamacare.

(* The median compensation of cardiologists surveyed was $325,000 in 2011. Do you believe they want to see cost competition come to medicine? Or they're happy with the way things are?)

Sure....but the point is that those who represent us WILL cave to this propaganda pressure.

We cannot wait for them any longer.

While I think most Americans favor some form of healthcare reform to address the 30 million or so uninsured Americans and the underinsured,...

Dream on... While Very few favor having 30 million additional insured - who can pay absolutely zero, making them your new masters, and you the slaves (think about it) is there even 1 new doctor provided for those 30 million in this bill?

That's right, not one.

Follow the money. The MD bums have either a poublic-funded position, are grant recipients of public money or have some other transfer of money to them. Bums all.

The health care is only affordable if you have a low wage or no job then it will be paid for. I will have to pay the penalty because I can not afford to pay 8% of my slary for healthcare so I will have to pay $3,000.00 for no healthcare.

Doctors are not known for the economic sense. What a moron. Does he really think government ever reduces the cost of anything or that it promotes innovation? We will be just like other countries with socialized medicine. We will all have little cards saying we have coverage, but nobody will be able to see a doctor or get treatment.

A bunch of useful idiot liberal doctors (oh, if they understood political science a quarter as well as they do medicine) rave over something that smarter doctors know, if not stopped, will put a serious damper on the quality of health care not just in the USA but worldwide.

LOL. Yeah, well, I am sure any media Obamugabe feces eater will be able to craft a cabal of liberal doctors to spew out the regime’s line.

That is what media Obamugabe feces eaters do.

My dad’s cardiologist & his partner have both said they will quit/retire if Obamacare goes into effect. The one doctor was fussing Wednesday about the paperwork/data collection & how crappy the reports are. Not happy. Many years of experience will be lost when they leave medicine.

I bet these Doctors just can’t wait until their compensation for treating all patients is the same as it is now for TRICARE and MEDICARE patients and their patient load triples

Good Times! (sarc)

They better pay off those student loans now

“Doctors are not known for the economic sense.”

****

I’m a DO and can attest to the fact that while younger doctors (under 35, say) are intelligent and usually mean well, they’re often remarkably unsophisticated in the ways of the world.

By the time you’re done with college and (to a much greater extent) internship and residency don’t provide much opportunity for growth in area’s other than medicine.

Personally, I think the system stinks. I could take any reasonably intelligent person and turn them into a competent first line practitioner of clinical medicine in 3 or so years whether they knew what an golgi body or a ribosome was before we started or not.

On the other hand I know people who’ve been through 12 years of medical schooling and somehow managed to pass the boards who I wouldn’t let near my pets.

As to who these people were, many (tho not all) were known derisively as TWA’s by hospital workers.

Third World Assassin’s.

The claims that Obamacare will reduce health care costs are particularly foolish. Andrew Wilkow pointed this out on his show this morning.

Obamacare does nothing to reduce the cost, or price, of health care; it merely redistributes wealth to make it easier for some to pay for it. The thousands of pages of garbage in the bill were just obfuscation for yet another redistribution scheme.

Of course, not surprising since we know that the real goal isn’t to improve health care, but rather to make as many people as possible dependent on the government for their very lives. Couple this with their approach to illegal immigration and you can easily see the plan is to draw as many gullible new constituents to their side as possible in order to create permanent power for themselves.
