I'm not a fan of ObamaCare because it addresses the wrong problem in general (it attempts to cover the uncovered 20% of the US), albeit true that it has some other fixes like the 26 thing. That said, it might be a step in the right direction if it can "get everybody in the boat" and now you can use those people and numbers to truly find a fix - let's just all agree that ObamaCare by itself is not a fix, it may simply be a step in the path to a fix. In a nutshell, the cost of care will keep rising - having effects on people like it's having on you G - and until we find a systemic fix we'll all literally pay the price. IMO, healthcare is core infrastructure and defense spending so we need to get businesses out and convert to a well-regulated private industry like the Netherlands or Switzerland (NOT like Canada or the UK or France). Only then will we see costs come down, productivity and quality go up. We did it with the airlines in 1980 and we can do it with healthcare today* * note: pilots thought their pay and numbers would stay high; big mistake, but the industry has adjusted and good pilots are doing just fine. Unfortunately nobody has figured out a way into fooling doctors into thinking their pay won't change and that's the #1 obstacle. Fixin people ain't no different than fixin aeroplanes - the path to low cost is standard troubleshooting and standard procedures done at scale to enable low cost. easy! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:358236 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
