Excuse me, but the problem is that we cannot afford healthcare NOW and slowing the rate of of increased charges doesn't solve BUBKES....

I thought this piece was even scarier.

Never mind the baby-killing health industry, we are going to have a McClinic and Wal-Doctor too?

That just gives me the creeps ...

People are desperate for help, and if they can get it for the price of an order of fries, maybe they will fall for it.

Oh what a fabulous idea!

Our service directors husband stepped on a nail which penetrated his foot deeply.

He went to a local medical clinic for treatment. One of those little 24 hour emergency clinics in a strip mall.

They treated the wound and sent him home.
He returned several days later complaining of pain at the wound site. They assured him every thing was normal.

Several days later, in extreme pain with a red stripe going up his leg he went to the hospital.

Now, 1 1/2 years and five surgeries later he is on permanent disability having lost two toes and about 40% of the bones in his foot. He still has one or two more surgeries to go.

He had a bone infection which the clinic never caught.

I think maybe I was being too subtle. I don't think we can blame the little clinics so much because a great deal of mainstream medicine is this shoddy now. Your friend might have had the same problem if he'd gone to a regular doctor's office or even to the ER for all of it. So, basically, if WalMart wants to get in on this completely bogus standard of care that is everywhere now, why not? The people who flock there, INSISTING they HAVE to, can get the kind of care trillionaire fodder deserve....

I've never in my life lowered myself to competing in circumlocution with a woman.
—Viktor Yanukovych

Women really are the other half of the sky.
—John Lennon

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.
—John F. Kennedy

The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant, it's just that they know so much that isn't so.
—Ronald Reagan

Some of us who have already begun to break the silence of the night have found that the calling to speak is often a vocation of agony, but we must speak. We must speak with all the humility that is appropriate to our limited vision, but we must speak.
—Martin Luther King

We're all fucked. I'm fucked. You're fucked. The whole department is fucked. It's the biggest cock-up ever. We're all completely fucked.
—not uttered by anyone in charge lately

Anyone calling Obama a leftist, liberal, or progressive needs to have the stupid beat out of them.
—Old Uncle Dave

As for the Taliban ... their stated grievance is the same as Gen. Washington’s in our war with the British: If you want this war to end, get out of our country.
—Pat Buchanan

Obama-era drone warfare ... in general looks like Bush-era drone warfare on steroids.
—Scott Horton

There has to be altruism in the universe.
—Frank Drake

The morons in Washington are pushing the envelope of nuclear war. The insane drive for American hegemony threatens life on earth. The American people, by accepting the lies and deceptions of “their” government, are facilitating this outcome.
—Paul Craig Roberts

I am a child of the South. Janet Napolitano tells me I need to be afraid of people who are labeled white supremacists but I was raised around white supremacists. I am not afraid of white supremacists. I am concerned about my own government. The Patriot Act did not come from the white supremacists, it came from the White House and Congress. Citizens United did not come from white supremacists, it came from the Supreme Court.
—Cynthia McKinney

No one has to "marry" anyone else politically; no one has to embrace every tenet or belief that an anti-imperialist ally might hold. You simply have to say: "All of us, regardless of our other views, believe this truth to be self-evident: dismantling the empire will bring immediate and enormous benefits to our nation and to the world."
—Chris Floyd

The power of the people on top depends on the obedience of the people below.
—Howard Zinn

...the government only starts listening to its voters once the more corrupt option turns out to be untenable.
—Matt Taibbi

· One out of seven American homeowners will probably lose their homes by the end of 2010.

· Only 4.7 percent of distressed homeowners who enrolled in the modification plan have gotten any help.

· Out of Obama's $75 billion program, only $2.3 million has been spent—or 0.03 percent.

Obama's performance on the foreclosure crisis—along with unemployment, the biggest problem America faces—makes Bush's laissez faire approach to Hurricane Katrina look caring and loving in comparison. If ever there were a cause for impeachment, look no further.
—Ted Rall

As self-appointed champions of civilisation against barbarism, they fail to see that a certain barbarism is the flipside of civilisation itself, inseparable from its smooth operation. For every cathedral, a pit of bones; for every artistic masterpiece, human wretchedness and back-breaking toil.
—Terry Eagleton

commenting kaos, sidebar krap, quotes

Here at home and throughout the world people are fighting back against the forces of wealth, privilege, and militarism — some because they have no choice, others because they would choose no other course but the one that leads to peace and justice.
