Ouisa D. Davis: Congress must act to fix America's health-care ...

There are too many ineligable applicants for US services of all kinds.
US Citizenship needs to be an understood criterion to benefit from existing funded programs. Before drinking from the bucket, there needs be some PUT INTO the bucket by recipients.
The best solution would be deport the entire bunch!
Hanging onto the shirttails of the anchor children, put into the situation by criminal parents, is unacceptable. Leaving the children behind and whining about the situation is easily solved, deport the bunch!

I love my medical insurance plan so leave me alone! It is working just fine, thank you. SInce when is the government supposed to take care of you from womb to the tomb? OK, we have 40 million uninsured. Let's break it down. Teens and young adults do not see a need for insurance so that knocks off 15 million. Another 5 million are in transition from one job to another so they do not have insurance. Another 5 million simply do not want insurance. Another 2 million can afford to pay health care out of their own pockets (the wicked rich). Another uncounted millions are illegal aliens. That leaves a grand total of less than 5 million out of 300 million that don't have insurance. THIS IS NOT A HEALTHCARE CRISIS! Leave it up to stupid racist liberals like Davis to make a mountain out of a mole hill. Geesh!

Democratic Leader Laughs at Idea That House Members Would Actually Read Health-Care Bill Before Voting On It

If you employee an individual and you ask them to read/study something critical and then voice their opinion and they refused or said that they were to busy - you would fire them! We need to fire congress!! We employee them!! They are 'PAID' by us to 'WORK' for us!!

Medical costs are going through the roof because lawyers like Ouisa sue for ever little broken fingernail and gouge the industry out of billions of dollars every year. We need to install tort reform before health care reform and the health care costs will stop going up so rapidly.

Another racist with thier hand out. I didn't work like a dog for the last 45 years to pay for health insurance for these beggars! Go to work like the rest of the nation and purchase your insurance from your employer. These Beggars want working people to pay for their sorry existence, while they lay on their dead a** doing nothing. Not I!

Yawn....Ya know Ouisa, with your resume, if you didn't open your mouth, people would think you are intelligent.

If we didn't have lawyers sueing doctors for every little thing, we wouldn't need so much insurance to begin with. The doctors wouldn't need so much insurance and the prices would be lower. It's the lawyers that created this whole mess. We don't need congress to fix this. We need less know-it-all, greedy lawyers to stop extorting the medical field.

Very disappointed in Ouisa this week. Taking both of her scenarios, the individual both have options, The lady qnd gentlemen are both still in charge of diciding who, what, when, they may not get everything exactly as they want or when they want, but it is their decision. Let's extend out Ouisa's hypothetical, the lady has the same problem under the single payer system, but no surgeries are available for her condition for the next three years. The gentleman is even worse, since it is a preventive procedure, the healthcare system won't cover it, and his doctor refuses to perform it so he or she does not imperil his standing with the new administrators of the nationwide health plan. So to get his procedure done he has to go to Juarez, or India.
Bottomline, neither seems like an improvement to me.
I'd like to see a swing toward folks take care of the day to day and insurance covers the big and catastrophic things, my opinion anyway.

And we need fewer lawyers holding elective office.

Hey Ouiseee (Were you married to George Jefferson?)

Once again Ms. Davis' ignorance screams for an equitable and logical reproof. "Our (health)system is broken", she claims. Really? Works ok for me. Not perfect, but it works ok for me and almost all of the people I talk to. Does it work for everyone? No, of course not, but then I would expect it wouldn't in an imperfect world. Compare it to other countries, however, and I think you'll find it's still near the top of the heap in this world.

Ms. Davis, as an attorney, should be able to string logical fact together but apparently is unable. Her hypothetical example of a young woman needing surgery is suddenly and empirically used as the proof we need to get the government to "fix it." Listen. The federal govt has rarely fixed anything. Their incessant meddling with the economy and the system that creates doctors serves only to compound the problem. You think Obama and the congress can "fix it?"

Our health care system is not broken. It needs improving, but not by the govt.

Who do you know at the El Paso Times, Ms. Davis, that continues to allow you to share your liberal, generally racists, ideas?

Only at the El Paso Times can a wannabe journalist write a racially-insensitive column and keep her day job simultaneously. This isn't her first piece of mindless drivel and it certainly won't be her last.
