Difference is that the law is subject to more checks and balances than the whims of a CEO LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 29/09/2009 11:44:58 PM
I did NOT anywhere near claim that ALL the Private Sector is corrupt. I also did NOT deny that the government was free of corruption and infact made it a point to say I was not saying that. But do I really have to throw a textbook at you to show that what I said still holds true throughout time? I would sincerely appreciate if you don't put words in my mouth and jump to extreme conclusions based on half of what I say. Of course if you did THAT you'd hardly be yourself, would you?

I am ONLY saying that I do not feel comfortable with the private sector running wild with no legal accountability with something as important and crucial to health as health insurance.

Or are you really going to make the leap that all government law and regulation is bad as well?

that the private sector has a long history of abusing both customer and employee *NM* LadyLorraine - 30/09/2009 03:46:03 AM 271 Views
That's indisbutable Isaac - 30/09/2009 05:55:45 PM 684 Views

i have yet to see any evidence of malpractice insurance being a driving cost of health care moondog - 30/09/2009 05:27:34 AM 722 Views
When the malpractice insurance can cost well over $100k a year of course it effects the costs. Brian - 30/09/2009 06:21:29 AM 715 Views
it's not THAT they pay malpractice LadyLorraine - 30/09/2009 02:00:04 PM 572 Views
but doctors are *required* to buy malpractice insurance moondog - 30/09/2009 04:13:08 PM 638 Views
that's completely moot to the situation malpractice insurance causes. LadyLorraine - 30/09/2009 04:21:42 PM 589 Views
hooray, we're going to continue in mediocrity when it comes to our health moondog - 29/09/2009 10:15:00 PM 719 Views
Yes, it's comforting to see that we are only rated 37th... Danu - 29/09/2009 11:14:33 PM 616 Views
That is a decade old and horribly discredited citation Isaac - 29/09/2009 11:46:51 PM 798 Views
regardless, we still spend a lot more on health care while having too many uncovered people moondog - 29/09/2009 11:56:24 PM 614 Views
My objection, in this context, is strictly about references Isaac - 30/09/2009 12:13:40 AM 624 Views
i understand your point about the reference moondog - 30/09/2009 12:54:25 AM 677 Views
