It brings to mind something I heard once about painting, polishing or plating a cow flop. I think I shall go to the cupboard for to pour two fingers of Black Jack. To cut the "glaze" doncha know. ....Oh, and Unkawill; 50, almost 60 years ago my dad saved a young boy who had a burst appendix. His folks bought him to the house. He was all doubled up, moaning and running a super high fever. (Remember?) Dad did this on the kitchen table with a massive dose of Penicillin. The kid's, er, man is still alive and walking around in SFO. (Oh, and the test for apendicitis is so simple a cave man can do it). Seems I’ve read this all before.

As president, I will make it my mission to fix it.” Oh, for a second there I thought she was talking about a previous gov't created mess of a ponzi-scheme, Social Security. Maybe she should consider fixing that before creating yet another gigantic drain on our national wealth. I mean, isn't social security a perfect example of how well the gov't runs income resditribution schemes? And we want more?? "which Clinton has said would take more than one term as president to achieve…." Oh Lawdy! She's already running for 2012! “Our present system is outdated, ineffective and unsustainable,” Clinton said at George Washington University. “It is, simply put, broken. As president, I will make it my mission to fix it.”

A big catchword in all the change-health-care talks is PREVENTION, as if we could lower health care just by doing something so we'll never need it! wow, what a concept...what a dream. As for the vaccine issue, you know what I mean. 'nuff said. d Another thing I am frightened of, M, is that we’ll lose our right to refuse certain “preventive” measures that Ms. Clintons espouses, and the first which leaps to mind, is vaccination.

I'm betting the details of this "plan" don't come out until after the election. Wouldn't do to say anything that can be refuted. - Max All I know is when I want to make something cheaper, putting a bunch of Harvard lawyers and politicians in charge of it has never crossed my mind.

Thank you very much Canada. State run medicine too. I damn near died from a burst appendix,till I demanded to see a real Doctor, as drinking more Pepto-Bismol just wasn't doing the trick.
