Democrats want to politicize the health care industry to “protect” their voters and punish those who dare to vote Republican.

And we all know there’s that small crowd of practices licking their chops at the amount of fraud that can be lost in such a huge system.

‘What we do know right now, is Warren’s days are numbered.’

appears so...she was on a roll until she had to explain her stance, as happens to so many candidates who rely on nothing but momentum...

‘Finding a good doctor who takes Medicare is NOT EASY!’

frankly, that is not true...

‘They have invested too much in the “White Males are the Root of All Evil” meme ‘

the gay Buttigieg insulates them from that...

‘they don’t dare do anything like this or they will create a viable Green Party challenger.’

I highly doubt that feckless, far left dems will noodle their votes away on a pretty bauble like a Green candidate, not after 2016...

The government is the enemy of the people.

So true! Been my tag line for years.

Warren is cooked, Biden is fried and Bernie is half baked.
They’d have more luck opening a soup kitchen than seeking the WH.

Agreed "it's not true".

My husband and I have multiple "good" doctors and they all take Medicare. We also have supplemental insurance that picks up what Medicare doesn't pay.

We can find doctors who take Medicare, they don’t want to take the Ret. Military’s Tricare Life, problem with that is they HAVE TO. Or lose that 20% that Tricare covers, and there is a time frame to file, miss it you lose the 20% as Veteran’s are not required to pay for what you failed to file for.

Unfortunately I think you are correct. This Russian thing the swamp is trying to tag her with means they fear her for some reason. Like you said, she’s “wrapped in an empathetic marketing blanket.”

Once the parade of rat losers all drop out, this person will likely go to the top. Even though she’s a diehard socialist, she’s not left enough for the Hitlery/AOC/Bernie/Schiff/Antifa crowd.

If she does make it to the top, I can see Arkancide in the offing. There is just no way Hitlery will stand for another woman being the first.

You are lucky - in rural Arkansas the doctor shortage is very real. If you don’t drive to Little Rock, Heath Care is down to a Nigerian Doctor or Nurse Practitioner at a Minute Clinic.

I thank the Lord every day that my wife and I, who are both military veterans, have the VA hospital for our medical care.

We each pay a co-pay for our medications ($7.50 each) and actual doctor appointments ($50 each) but this pales in comparison to any medical insurance premiums for private health insurance or even having Medicare deduct $120 a month from our Social Security checks for Plan B care.

And despite all of the bad media reports of VA care (my wife and I are both previous medical industry people), the VA care here in north central Florida is the absolute best comprehensive medical care we have ever received. Bar none.

The only Medicare coverage we have is the mandated (at age 65) Plan A inpatient care which comes at no cost to us. We have both declined Plan B outpatient care because we receive that at the VA facility.

Whether by design or coincidence, the Progtard DildoCrats have been condcuing a circular ambush that, one by one, takes down the most vocal advocates of their most extreme positions on socialism, single-payer (government) health care, higher taxes, gun confiscation, wealth confiscation, open borders, free college/student loan debt forgiveness, and LGBTQIAXYZ?...rights.

One could infer that the DildocCrats have a candidate in the wings that they shall roll out when the current candidates have finished annihilating each other. After being nominated, that candidate will run hard right ti the center as a moderate. If elected that candidate will then implement the most extreme positions that knocked his or her “opponents” out of the primaries. One of their first acts in office will be to confiscate retirement accounts to pay for Social Security.

Many on this board have speculated about one out more of the “usual suspects,” all of whom come with baggage and an extensive electronic and paper trail.

I think they are going to roll out someone “new” with no history or baggage at the convention.

Can anyone name one such possible candidate?

But see the government will force doctors to accept. It will threaten them with license being revoked. Felonies, jail and property being seized. Then to be followed by engineers, architects, nurses. ...you name it. The government is the enemy of the people.
SOME writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins.
Society is produced by our wants, and government by our wickedness;

the former promotes our happiness POSITIVELY by uniting our affections, the latter NEGATIVELY by restraining our vices.

The one encourages intercourse, the other creates distinctions.

The first is a patron, the last a punisher.

Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one . . .
For were the impulses of conscience clear, uniform and irresistibly obeyed, man would need no other lawgiver; but that not being the case, he finds it necessary to surrender up a part of his property to furnish means for the protection of the rest . . . — Thomas Paine, Common Sense (1776)
