The truth is, the new health care law (now upheld by the Supreme Court) isn't about providing medical care to the millions who can't afford it. It's about creating enough phony "compassion," via the biggest bloated entitlement program ever invented, to buy the votes of the "dependent class" and forge a permanent socialist/Marxist power bloc that will indeed "fundamentally transform" America.

The American Dream may be dying but the dream of a
Marxist state has begun to flourish with the latest Supreme Court decision.

IMHO

The woman who cleans the office where I work is from Eastern Europe. She is a licensed vet in her country and had her own practice but can’t get accredited here. Very smart, determined, hard-working. Entrepreneurial enough to start her own cleaning business that now services several office buildings and employs a number of people (all LEGAL immigrants). I’m trying to figure out how to make friends with her because we are kindred spirits, but she works until 1 in the morning so socializing is difficult.

I guess it’s just me, but “American Dream” has always grated on me. What about “American Opportunity”?

my neighbors dad

same deal, can get credentialed

however ‘professor”, seems like maybe YOU will be the one that has to move to Europe now, do you think you will automatically get to “profess” in their universities? Seems like a little research would have been in order prior to you luring her here with promises of supporting you in the lifestyle to which you would like to be accustomed.

You can’t kill the American dream.

The important question is, what will it take for “the sleeper to awaken”

(apologies Frank Herbert).

Well-stated.

Everthing about socialism is sham and affectation. - 23.11 Ch23 Evil "Economic Harmonies" - Frederic Bastiat 1801-1850

"Entitlement programs" is a euphemism for Socialist programs

Above all, if you wish to be strong, begin by rooting out every particle of socialism that may have crept into your legislation. This will be no light task. - The Law; Frederic Bastiat 1801-1850

Our hospitals are loaded with foreign trained physicians, some of them speaking fractured English. How did they get past the residency requirement?

One has to wonder how much of the “residency” requirement for doctors was created to protect patients; how much of it was meant to provide hospitals with cheap help from trained people; and how much of it was meant to protect doctors from competition from eager qualified new people.

I have an example from my own profession to illustrate. Many years ago when I was first hired; one could be propoted to lietenant after three years on the job. It is now five years since the test is only given every two to three years this really means up to eight years. Supposedly this is for safety. But if someone has 20 years on some other department and has written books and has a degree there still is no exception made. It is not for safety; it is a union thing. I am pretty sure that the residency deal for doctors is similar.

Actually, it’s the AMA that makes it so difficult and expensive for foreign-trained doctors to qualify here.
