NHS Spends 10,000 Pounds on Establishing Hilter’s Mass Appeal
NHS: Burning Money
The British health bureaucracy, that is being emulated here in the U.S. under Obamacare, just spend 10,000 freaking pounds on asking its employees if they thought Hitler was cool. On top of that, the employees were:
…then asked to rate Hitler in comparison with their own chief executive
Isn’t that 10k better spent on providing health care to women like the case here?
Do we still want Obamacare in the States?
Obamacare Will Create 560lbs Monsters
The NHS Caused This
Britain’s NHS which controls almost every aspect of a patient’s health-care regime only does something when…
We will always review a person’s care needs following a spell in hospital.
Quite often, a person’s circumstances have changed so we routinely carry out a review to ensure an appropriate care plan is in place.
So, the government bureaucrats need you to be hospitalized before they will review your health situation. You might have become a 560lbs monster in the meantime but they don’t care.
The woman in this case had been struck by several debilitating illnesses over a short period of time and had to be extracted from her house by a team of firemen when she needed to visit the hospital. All this while she was under NHS monitoring and care.
Why do we want to emulate this crappy program in the U.S.? Repeal Obamacare!
Who’s To Blame For Skyrocketing Healthcare Costs?
3:39 pm, April 26th, 2010 on Health
CNN has a (sob) story about a man who was quoted $33,000 for a nasal surgery by U.S. doctors but was able to receive the same service in Wales at 1/10th the cost.
The following graphic shows pretty clearly how much skewed US costs are in comparison to the rest of the world:
Of course, the quality of healthcare in the US surpasses that of any other country, but nothing can justify such a huge premium. There are several explanations for these bloated prices: Read on »
Step 1 to Stop Obamacare: AG Lawsuit
5:44 pm, March 23rd, 2010 on Health
The Attorneys-General of 14 states have filed suit to prevent Obamacare from going into effect. Their argument? The health-care reform bill:
…has violated the states’ rights as “sovereigns and protectors of the freedom, health, and welfare of their citizens and residents.”
Along with outside counsellers from litigation experts at Baker Hostetler, the AGs are arguing that:
The Act represents an unprecedented encroachment on the liberty of individuals … by mandating that all citizens and legal residents … have qualifying healthcare coverage or pay a tax penalty. The Constitution nowhere authorizes the United States to mandate, either directly or under threat of penalty, that all citizens and legal residents have qualifying healthcare coverage. … the Act exceeds the powers of the United States under Article I of the Constitution and violates the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution.
and,
…the tax penalty required under the Act, which must be paid by uninsured citizens and residents, constitutes an unlawful capitation or direct tax, in violation of Article I, sections 2 and 9 of the Constitution of the United States.
The 2400-page law that is Obamacare (PDF) mandating health insurance using fines and taxes as punishment can hardly be anything but unconstitutional.
Step 1 has started. Step 2 must go through in November by firing Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid from their jobs as Speaker and Majority Leader, respectively. An even better option would be to send them packing to the private sector, which might just happen in Reid’s case.
What’s Really Bad About the Bill
12:18 pm, March 22nd, 2010 on Democraps, Health, Politics, White House
The summary of the health care bill is as follows:
Cost: $940bn over 10 years; would reduce deficit by $143bn
Coverage: Expanded to 32m currently uninsured Americans
Medicare: Prescription drug coverage gap closed; affected over-65s receive rebate and discount on brand name drugs
Medicaid: Expanded to include families under 65 with gross income of up to 133% of federal poverty level and childless adults
Insurance reforms: Insurers can no longer deny coverage to those with pre-existing conditions
Insurance exchanges: Uninsured and self-employed able to purchase insurance through state-based exchanges
Subsidies: Low-income individuals and families wanting to purchase own health insurance eligible for subsidies
Individual Mandate: Those not covered by Medicaid or Medicare must be insured or face fine
High-cost insurance: Employers offering workers pricier plans subject to tax on excess premium
The Medicare expansion is good, as is the Medicaid one. Insurance reform is a good idea, as are the insurance exchanges to some extent. Subsidies can be good too. Expanding coverage to another 32 million Americans is an equally noble idea.
Now, the problems, in my opinion, begin with the first point – the enormous costs of the program. $940 billion dollars of money the U.S. government does not have. We are already spending a pretty 1.4 trillion dollars per year on average more than we have. $940 billion will only add to that.
Moreover, government cost estimates almost always prove to be far short of the actual number. Medicare, for instance,:
… in 1966 cost $3 billion. The House Ways and Means Committee estimated that Medicare would cost only about $ 12 billion by 1990 (a figure that included an allowance for inflation). This was a supposedly “conservative” estimate. But in 1990 Medicare actually cost $107 billion.
Medicare, in the most recent budget, costs 489 billion dollars. Medicaid costs another 264 billion dollars.
The Democrats told us in 1966 that Medicare would cost only 10 percent of what it actually did in 1990. They lied. Big time. And, they also had no idea how much it would really cost.
Pants on Fire
Fast forward to today. The Democrats are telling us Obamacare would cost only 940 billion dollars. The real estimate? 9.4 trillion dollars. That’s how much it would probably cost us in reality.
9.4 TRILLION DOLLARS. Who’s going to pay for that? Obama’s daddy?
Problem no. 2 is the mandate. Of course, Obamacare, and any liberal/socialist policy, wouldn’t be effective if people aren’t forced to adhere to it. So, we have fines and canings to force those disobedient little uninsured punks to buy Obamacare.
If I don’t want health care, I will not buy it. I will pay the fine, but I will not buy Obamacare.
The third problem, of course, is the end of comprehensive insurance coverage. Cadillac plans are nothing more than comprehensive health insurance plans provided by large corporations, such as Microsoft, that cover almost everything.
Covering everything from brand-name prescription drugs to physical therapy to preventative care to fitness programs to semi-elective surgeries to major operations, these Cadillac plans save tens of thousands of Americans tens of thousands of dollars each year.
What will happen if the tax goes through is that Microsoft will drastically reduce coverage, bringing everyone down to the Obamacare level. Henceforth, you want that physical therapy? Pay out of your own pocket. That’s what Democrats want – equally crappy coverage for all.
The last problem the summary left out is the increase in taxes. The rich will be taxed even further. Medicare taxes are being increased. Medicare taxes will be imposed on investment income.
Taxes, taxes and more taxes. That’s how Canada’s total tax rate is well over 40%.
Romney Criticizes Healthcare Reform Based on His Original Plan
The health care reform bill just passed by the House seems a lot like the one heavily promoted and signed by Mitt Romney in Massachusetts. In an article for the NRO, Romney claims:
His health-care bill is unhealthy for America. It raises taxes, slashes the more private side of Medicare, installs price controls, and puts a new federal bureaucracy in charge of health care. It will create a new entitlement even as the ones we already have are bankrupt. For these reasons and more, the act should be repealed. That campaign begins today.
How is this any different from Romney-care? Or has he had a change of heart since developing Presidential aspirations?
Healthcare Reform Passed: Democrats Will Lose 33 in November
33 seems like an auspicious number. That’s the number of House Democrats who voted for the Obama-Reid-Pelosi Healthcare Destruction Act of 2010. And, that will be the number of seats the Democratic Party will lose in November, 2010, at the very least.
The 33 Democrats who are afraid enough right now to bring down the wrath of Pelosi & Co. on themselves:
| Adler (NJ) | Davis (AL) | Melancon |
| Altmire | Davis (TN) | Minnick |
| Arcuri | Edwards (TX) | Nye |
| Barrow | Herseth Sandlin | Peterson |
| Berry | Holden | Ross |
| Boren | Kissell | Shuler |
| Boucher | Kratovil | Skelton |
| Bright | Marshall | Space |
| Chandler | Matheson | Tanner |
| Childers | McIntyre | Taylor |
| Cooper | McMahon | Teague |
Time for them to kick the Congressional bucket.
Obama Wants to Remove the Wrong Testicle
12:02 pm, March 21st, 2010 on Health
Free Testicle Removal and Infertility Clinic
The NHS of the UK should change its name to the National Horror Service, given the constant flow of absolutely blood-curdling stories of medical malpractice and even outright stupidity.
In the latest case, doctors at the West Suffolk Hospital, an NHS institution, removed the wrong testicle leaving the man infertile. They ended up removing both testicles, but, in the future, they will have:
…clearer instructions on marking and verifying sites prior to surgery.
Now, the hospital has been rated “good” and, most appropriately, its motto is:
Delivering safe, high quality patient care
because, apparently, removing the wrong testicle is completely acceptable and even commendable.
Back in the U.S., Obama, Reid, Pelosi LLC want to implement a government-run health-care system which will be just as crappy as the NHS. I just can’t support them – you see, I really like my testicles.
McCain/Dorgan Don’t Like Dietary Supplements
2:01 pm, February 26th, 2010 on Health
Proving even further that John McCain is hardly a Republican advocating more and more government intrusion into the private lives of citizens and restricting personal choice, he (along with Byron Dorgan) has introduced another crappy bill restricting access to dietary supplements, claiming:
All Americans should know the exact ingredients of any dietary supplement they use and the FDA must have the tools necessary to ensure the safety of dietary supplements.
This legislation would require dietary supplement manufactures to register with the FDA and fully disclose the ingredients contained in the supplement. Surveys have found that a majority of dietary supplement users believe the FDA approves the safety of dietary supplements prior to market introduction. However, that is not the case. In fact, dietary supplement manufacturers’ advertised claims of safety and effectiveness are not reviewed or approved by the FDA.
The FDA has hardly proved itself capable of preventing life threatening and other gravely harmful drugs from being approved, including Vioxx and many others. MSN has nice section on the FDA hall of shame. Now, McCain wants the FDA to take control of dietary supplements.
If the FDA can’t do its job now, relatively limited as it is, how the heck can we expect it to do any better with more on its plate?
Let’s Move … the Obamas Out of the White House
4:50 pm, February 10th, 2010 on Health, White House
Michelle Obama has launched a new initiative, Let’s Move, to combat childhood obesity.
She feels that bringing “grocery stores to low-income neighborhoods” and helping “places like convenience stores carry healthier food options,” in addition to more onerous food labeling requirements will provide parents the information and choices they need to make better decisions for their children.
My thoughts on this matter pertain to 2 points. First, let children be children. Let them have fun. They have their entire lives to get back to size 0.
Second, as one commentor put it:
Bring PE back to the classroom. I think dodge ball and tag were great when I was in elementary school. Keep the crazy lawsuits out of sports programs in and out of schools.
PE should be compulsory for ALL kids, no excuses. In my school, PE was a requirement – you had to pass the class to move on each year until the 10th year. It was easy to pass – just attend the class enough times – but the idea was to instill in them a passion for physical exertion.
Alas, the Obamas and Democrats can’t come up with simple solutions. Everything has to be a grand scheme involving more bureaucracy and red tape and more requirements (or taxes) on businesses.
I can’t wait for 2013.
Euthanasia is Wrong Because…
1:04 pm, November 23rd, 2009 on Health
… of this guy who was claimed to be in a “coma” or “vegetative state” for 23 years, but was actually fully conscious the WHOLE time.
Student Rom Houben was misdiagnosed after a car crash left him totally paralysed.
He had no way of letting experts, family or friends know he could hear every word they said.
Now, had his parents believed his misdiagnosis of being in a “vegetative state,” Houben would have been murdered in cold blood, despite the fact that…
his brain was still functioning almost completely normally.
Even with the most famous case that the media has used to justify assisted suicide, the Terry Schiavo case, her post-mortem examiners actually didn’t rule out that she could have been in a Minimally Conscious State (MCS) which is distinct from the Persistent Vegetative State (PVS) as diagnosed by her doctors.
People do recover from a coma. The article has an interesting story towards the end of another person who was about to be killed but recovered just in time…
Twenty years ago, Carrie Coons, an 86-year-old from New York, regained consciousness after a year, took small amounts of food by mouth and engaged in conversation.
Only days before her recovery, a judge had granted her family’s request for the removal of the feeding tube which had been keeping her alive.

Prescription Pseudoephedrine?
7:31 pm, September 8th, 2009 on Health
Why are drugs banned? Why is metamphetamine banned? If someone wants to poison himself with drugs, that’s one less crazy person for society to deal with. The war on drugs hasn’t made us safer, or our kids safer.
If you really want to buy, or make, drugs, you can do it all you like. It’s the stupid people who get caught.
The answer to the metemphetamine problem isn’t making pseudoephedrine a prescription medication, as these buggers are proposing in another pea brained scheme. The only thing this does is enriches doctors even more.
So, every time I catch a common cold, I have to get an appointment with my PCP, which will take 3 or 4 days on average, by which time I will be cured out already.
Hey, we are not even talking about the increased health care costs yet because of this stupid idea.
Might as well stop selling the drug altogether.
I Love This Congresswoman
2:40 pm, August 27th, 2009 on Health
ObamaCare™ is stirring up another controversy over whether abortion would be funded under the Democrats’ health care plans.
Now, Rep. Lois Capps (D., Calif.) claims:
It’s very personal and it’s very emotional … The goal is to not have controversial points stand in the way of making progress.
The progress we are talking about here is itself controversial. Do we even need a national health care plan?
We need to get this issue out of the way before we start talking about funding abortion and such other “controversial” topics.

A patient lobby group is demanding an urgent review of basic hospital care after highlighting accounts of “appalling” NHS standards.
Relatives told the Patients Association how their loved ones, often elderly people, were left lying in faeces and urine and were not helped to eat.
…The report focused on 16 stories from relatives of patients in England, which the association says are just a few of the many similar reports from across the UK.

NYT Forgot the Real Problems with British and Canadian Health Systems
4:05 pm, August 14th, 2009 on Health, Liberalism, Media
Discussing the Canadian Medicare system, Theodore Marmor writes in the NYT:
Q. What is your biggest criticism of it?
A. The continued nastiness of federal-provincial negotiations about the shared financing of Medicare is one unappealing feature of the Canadian system. This dual responsibility leads to endless blaming between the national and provincial governments for the pressures of medical expenditures on the budgets of other public programs and tax levels. This, in turn, has partly prevented Canada from handling drug costs in the uncomplicated Medicare program.
With regards to the British NHS, Robert Mackey writes and quotes:
NHS often makes the difference between pain and comfort, despair and hope, life and death. Thanks for always being there…
Millions of people are grateful for the care they have received from the NHS – including my own family. One of the wonderful things about living in this country is that the moment you’re injured or fall ill — no matter who you are, where you are from, or how much money you’ve got — you know that the NHS will look after you.
Both writers have missed the critical problems with both systems: medical rationing and shortage of quality medical care. Read on »

Plague + Swine Flu Scourge the Chinese
In addition to the swine flu that’s still causing concern for health officials in China, we now have another unpleasant addition to the scene - plague:
Thousands of people have been placed in quarantine in north-western China after a man died of pneumonic plague.
Chinese authorities say the man who died was a 32-year-old herdsman from a sparsely populated area mostly inhabited by Tibetans.
Most of the other 11 people infected with the disease are relatives of the dead man.
This is the first case of plague that comes to mind since the ‘94 outbreak in western India.
This episode also points to the terrible health and sanitation conditions in western China, especially in Tibetan and Uyghur areas.

U.S. President Barack Obama said the campaign would become the driving force of his presidency, and other top officials described a methodical unleashing of United States health insurers likely to unfold not in a single, retaliatory spasm but in repeated strikes aimed at destroying bases of the uninsured terrorists and the communities that harbor them.

Obama’s Health Care Plan Faces Existing Problems
11:33 am, July 19th, 2009 on Health, White House
Interesting article from The Philadelphia Tribune, an African American newspaper in the Philly area…
This article originally appeared in the July 12 issue of The Philadelphia Tribune, authored by Christopher Moraff.
We all know the routine. You call your doctor for appointment, and — unless you have an acute illness — you might get one in two weeks, ten days if you’re lucky. On the day of your visit you get to the office early only to find three, four, or even five patients in the waiting room who seem to have been given the same appointment time as you.
After about 40 minutes spent flipping through old copies of Sports Illustrated your name is called and you are escorted to an exam room. Okay, you think, here we go. But you’re not seeing a doctor yet. Instead, you’ll sit in that tiny room staring at the jars of cotton and trays of plasma vials for another 20 minutes before the physician finally comes in. He’ll spend, on average, ten minutes with you before scribbling something in your chart and rushing out to the next patient. By the time you leave, your one o’clock consultation has turned into a brief, two o’clock encounter. Read on »

Obama’s nominee for the position of Surgeon General, Dr. Regina Benjamin, doesn’t seem as partisan as his other choices so far. Her work so far ought to solicit praise and respect:

Benjamin has also served as the first black woman to head the State of Alabama Medical Association and was associate dean for rural health at the University of South Alabama’s College of Medicine. Read on »
