I’ve talked with a few docs that barter. It seems to work out pretty well for both parties.

I have a friend who is a doctor and he’s traded services for checkups etc. before. He was just telling me yesterday that a patient took him and his son fishing for a day in exchange for services.

That's funny, I got $7,500 worth of healthcare from my doctor's group in exchange for doing their website 3 years ago (cost me about $950 in time to do). Yes, Jay Idiot Leno--a BARTER. that and other deals have enabled me to have a very high-deductible plan for 80% less than I had previously paid for insurance. I do site maintenance and pay no visit, shots, or test fees.

MDs who won't barter with me, I pay CASH and don't even bother giving them insurance info (which saves them paperwork), and always get a very nice discount, never less than 30-50%.

Louden meant to "bargain", to negotiate, as she later said. And it has worked for our family, and many others I have shared this advice with.

Bartering is certainly better than robbing someone to get the money for their healthcare, which is what socialized medicine is.

At least barter allows patients to give things of value for care.

What things of value are produced by the libs?

Surely we don’t expect our dollars to be worth a stinky Obama in a couple of years.

And .. why aren’t the Tea Parties supporting this candidate, and instead I’ve read here that they’re supporting somebody else against Reid ..??

I know Rush supports this gal .. so why wouldn’t the Tea Parties ..??

I don’t know her; I don’t know anything about her; I don’t live in Nevada; so I have no stake in the game .. I’m just curious.

“...their business was cited for hundreds of Occupational Safety and Health Administration violations that endangered workers.”
How are casino workers “endangered”? Cards too stiff?
Actually, bartering is an excellent idea. Keeps the middleman out of it, and the IRS in the dark. I’d like to see a hell of a lot more of it.

Lowden’s announcement last week that she poured $700,000 of her own fortune into her campaign

At least it was her money. Reid will use ACORN, Organizing for America, and any other scum he can funnel our money to as a way to cheat out a victory.

Democrats are idiots, and they are arrogant snots at that.

My Great Grandfather was a country Doctor during the depression (we are close to that now) and he took chickens, wild game, fish or whatever people would pay him with, not that he needed it, but the people had pride back then and they wanted to pay for services.

Hey those goats and chickens sure do beat those Medicaid rates. If docs stop taking government insurance, barter will do. I think tat there are actually some internet barter sites for small businesses.

Looks like KGBCS is going to try to keep their Party in power. Everybody knows exactly what she meant. She should have said another year of Harry and this will be dinner.

Pray for America

From her website: “Sue Lowden has received numerous awards for her community and public service, including the Hadassah Woman of the Year Award.....”

Is she Jewish?

Chickens for checkups?

We will be lucky to have chickens for checkups when these A-holes get finished! The chickens will be worth more than cash.

I guess plastic Pelosi won't be able to get her Botox with a chicken though.

They act like barter (services for services) among small business is something new or crazy

I had a small side computer network business that I done barter with other small business for years ...

I did my tax guys computers in exchange for him doing my taxes for at least ten years

I also did computers and computer network repair for my chiropractor in exchanged for chiropractor services for at least five years

I've barter computer services for legal services

And I've even barter computer services with my local bar!

The attacks will take a toll if every mistake she makes gets national attention. It was a gaffe, but hardly a disqualifier. Will Harry Reid’s gaffes get this much ink?
