Health care gone awry.

Doctors doing it to us again


   I want a doctors job.... You get up go to work, see X number of patients,go home at five and have a drink or two, go to bed , get up, go to work, go home at fi e etc etc etc... No call, no admissions, no hospital visits, no ED responses,... And well they have a 9-5 job... Wow, I want this job...
     Gone are the days of Doctrs admitting patients, taking care of your needs, and doing what they signed up to do and that is treat you according standard practice of medicine, Hippocratic oath, and the medical practice act... Bit only are physicians bound to provide the minimalist of care for you they are bound by law to take care of you. 
  Another case scenario, your othropedic surgeon tells you you need a specific type of surgery, first the insurance companies, haggle over whether they will approve it or not, then do the surgery, charge you 20,000$ And your still left with Anesthisist bills, radiology bills, lab bills X-ray bills, office visits, any treatments and of course medicine... And then if you miss a 20.00$ payment they send you to collections and well you know the rest.
    When did doctors stop caring? I wish I could take those of you that were not alive in the sixties and seventies to show you the beauty of healthcare...before greedy corporations took over health care... It was fantastic to go to work and know you were going to make a difference in someone's life. Not today, welcome to revolving doe, convert belt medicine where you are overhead and profit , all in one. Oh they love you being sick, but only be sick for a specific amount of time... God forbid you step outside the insurance guidelines or DRG's...this is a guide insurance companies use to tell how long you a patient should be I the hospital otherwise the insurance companies can refuse to pay because the hospital, physicans didn't not follow the care desk abated by the insurance carrier. In other words you are a statistic, a line on a chart, a number in a computer...you don't matter. 
   Please joi. Me in rev among the medical system by, elmanatimg all corporate drive owned hospitals and go back to the way hospitals were designed. To care for people.  All people, and stop the avarice practice of physicans and insurance. We can change it all....just do something...

Whistle Blowers are Hero's

     With out people like Edward Snowden andHero's like him our country would continue to spiral unchecked into a tyrannical mire of corruption and Gestapo tactics.
     Why do we place whistle blowers in a bad light when in all actuality they should be hailed as Hero's. They protect us from corrupt companies, corrupt politicians, corrupt law enforcement, corrupt judicial system, and dangerous work places etc... But yet when the media calls you a whistle blower is is akin to being called a conspiracy theorist, which of course makes one believe you have seen a Big foot or chuppacabbra..
     The media loves names they name storms, they nickname serial killers, sports heros, now even winter storms have names...Nemo, Ione...the media is the last bastion that needs a serious overhaul. They lie, they slant, they form and provide opinions, worse they make the news irrelevant. By being edgy, cute, repetitive, and what ever pop fader there is for the day...
     I want the name whistle blower stricken from the English language and replaced with names such as Patrick Henryism, Nathanal Halealites, etc. it wasn't long ago a small contingency of Americans pulled together and said enough is enough to tyranny and with the help of France and countless sacrificed lives, we not only conquered a nation we set a precedent that Americans are not a rug for nations and tyrants to wipe their feet on.
    But that is gone, gone the way of corporations, crooked politicians, greedy entrepreneurs, talk show hosts with about as much intelligence  as a slug and boys who throw and catch balls for a living making millions of dollars. The Americans that save lives, make your clothes, teach your children, dispose of your trash, mow your yards are what... Citizens to be admired? Citizens to envy? Citizens you aspire to be? Sadly no... People like you only think of what you can get out of it and what it will cost...
    America stand up, shout out, stop agreeing and start acting like Americans. Revolt, replace, and Revive this country to its greatest strength... Please.... Thank you Mr. Snowden.., thank you sir...
