You cant come to terms with the fact you havnt done any of that. :lol

He keeps insisting that we are all raging over this so I wonder if he is actually all huffy and puffy and assumes that we are as emotionally fragile as he is.

Double :lol:lol

Unfortunately, I believe this is true.

But damn it all, I have no links or blogs to quote to prove it. >:

ehhhh....^ This isn't difficult to comprehend.

Is it wrong? Is it false? Is it Make-believe?

Please...explain to me in an intelligent way why this isn't true...THANX - K - BUHBYE

A little bit of truth with a little bit of taking comments out of context and then applying them to everything etc. It's just too difficult for you to interpret information is all. ;/

I can't get enough of your mental gymnastics. Please show me more. :love

How many phrases do you have? Can't you come up with something original or are you going to keep using the same tired stuff?

Come on,

Tell me that the rationing panel doesn't exist. Please...tell me how they won't be rationing care and subsequently killing people but instead handing out muffins....come on ....please! Gimme something to laugh at :love

You weren't talking about a rationing panel, you were talking about a death panel who, in your lack of logic and knowledge, you accuse of carrying out a genocide. Plus you're the one who makes others laugh, I just help to provoke your work.

I am going straight to hell for this:

http://www.factcheck.org/2009/08/pal...-death-panels/

Read it Coolinator. Then tell me how this is biased toward the left. It is probably the most balanced treatment of this particular controversy to date. And not only does it provide dirct quotations from the parties involved (Obama, Palin to name two) but it also critiques the spin from BOTH sides of the aisle.

Say what you want about the Annenberg Foundation, this treatment is a lot more balanced and reasonable than any neo-conservative blog you care to quote.

There. I've done what you asked. Now "tear me to shreds". I promise to enjoy it. :)

When you ration care what does that do to the person who you are rationing? And what group or population of people will be affected by this rationing panel?




Na,

Not even going there. The article doesn't even bring up Peter Orzsag or the Rationing committee.

What, you don't know?

Of course not. You don't want to be shown that you're wrong.:lol

Here,

Let's make it simple.

What will happen to the people who don't get MRI's to check for cancer?

But I just read an article on your blog that claimed that stuff like MRI's actually hurt patients.:x

Ummm...

Question:

What will happen to those patients who don't get preventative care?

But your blog says that those kinds of treatments are bad for people!

Dodging the question.

Check

and

mate?

Nope, I'm just pointing out that you are contradicting yourself. Here's a link to your blog. Link
If you're going to discuss things then you should probably know where you stand.

And here's the answer: According to your blog patients who don't get preventative care are better off than those that do.

I didn't know you were such a fan of my blog. Thank you. You should subscribe.

But back to the point.

Question:

When you ration peoples preventative care.......what happens to the people?

Your answer please ......3 seconds.....

More people get care than if you would have just given all resources to the first people who show up.

isn't this sort of irrelevant to the entire discussion of if universal health care will ruin the world?

Maybe you shoudl start another thread about preventative health care, because it has nothing to do with universal health care, really.

Also irrelevant. Your entire argument is irrelevant. Basically, your qualm isn't even with universal health care but with health care in general, and even further the world ;/
You can apply this to the government too. STUFF ABoUt RATioniNg CARE GOVERNMENt. IT WILL AFFECT POPULACeS. SO LIKE MAYBE WE SHOULD DO AWAY WITH GOVERNMENTS ALL togetHER? your argument doesn't even boil down to doing away with it, your argument has no conclusion or proposed solution, really.

your arguments and concerns are hopelessly tragic, because for the most part your problem isn't with any specific system compared to another system, but the fact that they aren't perfect. Even if preventative medicine was used, there would still be some people who are getting hurt. Just like theleader is saying now, MRIs can actually hurt people. thus, your argument is even against preventative medicine and pretty much anything that doesn't have a perfect result.

Furthermore you have no concept of a "State of nature" which we are struggling against. I guess you are an optimist because ultimately you are presenting an anarchist/stuff argument which states that WITHOUT ANY SYSTEMS RATIONINg cARE HUMANITY WOULD BE PERFECT.

either that or you are just some douchebag who wants to GET US THINKING ABOUT THE ISSUES :rolleyes

Say again? :confused:

I think you're wires are getting crossed.

No, you're just getting confused by reality.

he's saying if you don't ration out care than not everybody gets treated, because they end up treating people who didn't need it instead.
