An elderly friend of ours lives in one of the best nursing homes in the country,” ...It’s beautiful. Getting in requires at least a $300,000 deposit and minimum costs are $6,000 per month (per person, of course). Another elderly person we know lives in a room in a building that’s basically a warehouse to store old people. Horrible food. Nothing to do but stare at television. No activities. The only outdoor area is a parking lot...It’s all that she can afford with Medicaid.

Save a bit for the future. The bank is printing medical inflation way beyond the CPI. Could be millions in a another few decades. Better to just stay healthy.

Canada apparently takes care of their elderly as part of national health care.
 
All the do nothing dems care about is impeachment. Is there nothing better or more important for them to do. Very lazy.

Okay, not all Canadians prefer their public health care. Only 86.2% of them.

Health Care Now Poll Report said:
A new poll conducted by the Toronto-based Nanos Research points to overwhelming support — 86.2 percent — for strengthening public health care rather than expanding for-profit services.

“With more than 8 in 10 Canadians supporting public solutions to make public health care stronger, there is compelling evidence that Canadians across all demographics would prefer a public over a for-profit health care system,”

Absolutely no other country in the world has the majority voting to bring the US system to their place. Too expensive, thanks to lobbyists.

I'm,down for rationing health care ,the amount of doctors like they do.

Canada's doctor shortage will only worsen in the coming decade: op-ed

When stacked up against countries with similar health care goals, namely universal coverage, it quickly becomes apparent that Canada's health care system is not worth emulating. While we're a top spender, we have among the longest waiting lists, low levels of medical technologies and perhaps the...

Spooky about that investigative team getting sick at the haunted house.

Thanks! I had a wonderful Halloween and I really hope that you did as well. We only got about eight trick-or-treaters so I ate more candy than I handed out lol! :lol I hope that you had a wonderful Halloween as well though. Unfortunately it was cold, windy, and rainy around here. :sad
 
It's not religious discrimination it's just the rules for everyone. No headwear for security reasons. I sometimes get told to take off my hat when entering a bar. That's the rules.

The rule applies to everyone equally and there is no double standards. No headwear. That means No hats, No helmets, No balaclavas, No hoodies, Nothing on your head.

Right. 68% of US veterans are happy with their public health care. VA is public care, provided by the government. My retired career navy cousin loved the VA. He got all of his care through them. The retired general I have been talking to for 20 years is about to turn 65, and signed up at the local VA hospital. He was happy to find out that they would take care of him. A Nam infantry officer I talk to told me that he gets all of his care from the VA. The list goes on. The majority like public health care.

Not just health care either. I was at the shopping center, and a military vet asked me where the nearest PX was. He preferred government run stores to the private ones.

Without question the rich 2% can get better care through the private concierge doctors they keep on retainer. In the USA, the rich last 15 years longer than the non rich. That doesn't help the 98%. The majority do better with public health care. The non rich have better outcomes in Europe, Canada, Australia, Japan, etc...

Why do we have to be the only people on the entire planet that pays several times what everyone else does for the same meds? The US health care system has been centrally planned by lobbyists. Its not free market. Its a license raj like India had. Companies buy a license (monopoly) to manufacture generic meds that have been on the market for decades, and then jack up the price to the moon. Only in the USA though, everyone else pays a song for the same meds. Acthar costs $38,892 per vial in the USA. Compared to $8 in Europe.

The other countries are centrally planned.

Do you,think that we can't ration health care on a budget sheet .govt do.

Sorry the va sucks . look my,wife would be dead if she waited for two years to see her ob gyn.she had three ovarian cancers ,overview removed within 4 months of noticeable growth .only,that long because of shoulder replacement .

She has no insurance ,I pay .Medicare will charge her more because I had a better insurance ,should I go into how my dad has most of his income taken back to get health care.

Your idea of open border doctors sounds great until,the other nations ration their outside medical sales and deny passports .

See the UK where the do just that .imagine needing diabetic medicine and it's gone .

The reason i hate socialized medicine is because of the va,the military .

Medicine shortages force government to limit HRT drug exports

Blood pressure medicine, contraceptives, painkillers and skin creams in short supply
www.google.com www.google.com

While we do have our problems on,that too .I,was seeing articles ,but my,points is those nations are centrally planers.

Look where I live we doctors who,treat the rich only ,cash only ,not that common and others whi accept both .my,mil would have to travek further if we did this socialized medicine .rural areas are shafted .

Okay, you didn't have a positive experience. The majority do have a positive experience, and like it. Maybe the VA near Vero Beach is not up to the standards elsewhere for some reason, or at least the VA doctor you went to.

In Britain they have basic care via public health service, and can pay a private doctor cash if they want extra, or faster service. The majority is happy with that system. They are not voting to adopt the USA system of lobby central planning.

Japan has a serious demographic issue caused by WWII. Prior to the war, their leaders told them to have lots of children to rule their empire. Then they lost the war, and things were so grim that they had few children. They now have a lot of elders, and few youngsters to man the machines. Their labor shortage is across all sectors, not just health care.

Even with their labor shortage, Japanese citizens on average last a lot longer than US non rich citizens. A testament to how well run their system is. Better results with fewer people.

Diet has a lot to do with longevity .

Suicide is a nationwide phenomenon, not just a military one. The young are desperate due to bankers and lobbyists making things almost impossible for the non rich to get by.

Valid point. Something has changed with US food. In days of yore, most people maintained a healthy weight naturally. Nowadays, most people have to write down every single calorie they eat in order to maintain the same weight. Most people don't have the math skills, so the majority are overweight or obese.

They did experiments on animals. As long as the animals ate pet food, the majority maintained a healthy weight. If animals were fed people food, they got fat. Something is up with US processed food.
 
The military treatment for dental work if you are deployed you have a cavity they don't treat cavities they pull the tooth. The mission comes first your second they only fix you so you can continue your mission there's a lot of things that civilian doctors will do that military doctors won't
