Me neither! I quit The AMA years ago over this. Every time they contact me I remind them of the fact that they sold out doctors and patients for monetary gain. Because, that's what they did.
The link leads to a confused discussion of Cypress. It and the excerpt above are confusing. If Turkey is beginning to step back from it’s genocide denial, that is a good thing. Time will tell.
Cobern can't be trusted. He, like McConnell, know this noise making is a meaningless way to act all “conservative.” Harry Reid does not need any R votes. This is political daytime TV.
In retrospect, I think Stockman was righter than Reagan. I loved RR & still do. But we see now that even he did not shrink government. And he added to the deficit. That is understandable since he was winning the Cold War. But it is what it is.
401(k) and IRA tax deductions to be singled out as tax breaks for rich white people.
If it just stopped there, that would be one thing. It seems likely though that these tax deferred retirement savings will be forcibly converted to a government administered retirement plan. But don't worry, "you'll do as well or better than you would have under your old plan." Wink wink.
And it might not stop there. There is already talk of means testing for eligibility for Medicare and SS. This means testing will take into account net worth which will include property that you own as well as investments that you have. And there may be more. I have also read that a "one time" tax assessment on net worth is being considered. This has already been done in Cypress.
Not “my AMA.” For years now, The AMA has represented only a small minority of physicians. It’s membership is disproportionately composed of academics and professors.
