I think he was talking about pre-Bush administration Medicare, not the current system which is unquestionably crappy.Quote:

I read a book called "Money Driven Medicine" by Maggie Mahar. I mentioned it a number of times. It was released in May and, in my opinion, is an excellent overview to the problem with American medicine today. It is well-sourced and well-written. Of course I have read a lot more (including a lot on part D), but thats a summation of it all.
LOL, you spelled that so badly you actually spelled another completely different 4-syllable word correctly.Quote:

pre-Medicare part D was pretty bad too. It just didn't fuck the patient as badly as they are being fucked now. Medicare has been fucking doctors pretty well for the past 15/20 years.Quote:

THANK YOU. I have one moronic friend who is just beraly 19, who says hes undeniably in love and will marry his 17 year old girlfriend. Issue is he met her and started dating her when his last girlfriend broke up with him, as a rebound, and was being destructive as to what he was doing (drinking and doing drugs), even to the point he let go of his morals and had sex with her the second week of their dating (he was very adament about keeping it till marrage).
They arent in love though, and its obvious. They are just two desperate people just wanting to be with someone because its the only way the find self worth, and its obvious with their daily arguments that range from absolutely nothing to absolutely absurd. You would think he would wise up since his parents are going through a divorce right now, but no, some peopl ejust need to learn that hard way, when its just too late.
Get back off topic, noob.Quote:
