gotta laugh sometimes http://tinyurl.com/mf43m3 the more I read the more my head hurts.
"The assault against seniors began with the stimulus package in February. Slipped into the bill was substantial funding for comparative effectiveness research, which is generally code for limiting care based on the patient’s age. Economists are familiar with the formula, where the cost of a treatment is divided by the number of years (called QALYs, or quality-adjusted life years) that the patient is likely to benefit. In Britain, the formula leads to denying treatments for older patients who have fewer years to benefit from care than younger patients. "
I think more and more Americans are finally becoming aware but is it enough? I gotta say don't count on the Repubs to defeat this travesty of Health Insurance as he called it at the presser. Count on yourself to keep both parties honest. I know I know seems impossible but they live and breathe re-election our calls and emails when offered steadily do make an impression. Find out where your Sens and Reps plan to appear while on the Aug recess and go and make your voice & opinions heard.
