Fully 99% of the MDs in this hospital are all East Indian and Pakistani. Fully 95% of the nursing staff are all Filipino.

The local hospital chain likes to employ Asian quack “doctors”.Five years ago, I had got progressivly sicker over the course of three days. Chills, whole body ached like I had been hit by a baseball bat, yellow nasal discharge, my face hurt, I was miserable.

The quack took a two second look at my medical record and delivered his diagnosis, Cat allergies. I was dumbfounded. I then proceeded to cuss him out and demanded to see a competent doctor. He started to panic. No tests were done, no culture taken, to this day I have no idea what my malady was. I suspect a sinus infection.

I told the doctor to prescribe me some sort of anti biotics, (yeah, yeah, I know, but I figured it was a start). Bingo, immediate relief that day, two days later was good as new.

A few days later, the hospital sent an e-mail asking how my visit went. I wrote a three page rant warning them that the quack was going to misdiagnose someone and cause a needless death. No follow up from the hospital chain. That was my last visit until I injured my foot about six months ago. Hospitals are great if you’re bleeding from a wound, other than that, I avoid them.

Fwiw, I had had a sinus infection about five years prior to that. The doctors remedy, (after anti biotics to quell the infection), wanted me to take Nasonex and some other dope, I forget the name of, ( That crap was some sort of speed. Took a dose of it and stayed up all night staring at the ceiling) Doc said, “ It’s strong stuff”. This was a supposed ENT “specialist”.

I stick with using a Neti pot. No dope, no needless prescription, no experimentation by quack doctors. /rant

ha ha ha ha ha ..... exactly .... and that’s what this country is up against. Has been for a while. So between the ‘gimme-dat’s’ and millions like her...WTF do we do?

And if I’m reading your name correctly, being to the Right in Jersey, cannot be easy. Although, like damn near every other state in the country, there’s a lot of ‘Red’ in Jersey, but it’s drowned out by the big cities, unfortunately

And it just keeps getting better ..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zSaW69YFAg

I agree. Too many people who are literally too stupid to grab their own rear ends are allowed to vote. I pray to God Trump is re-elected. Even so, he can't be president for ever and I wouldn't want that, that's not the system of government we have. The Democrats will get back into power. And when they do God help us all. They aren't going to govern, they're going to dictate. They aren't going to be interested in bipartisanship. They're going to be out for revenge.

Warren is a bald faced liar and a con artist and she knows it. What infuriates me, besides her phoniness is she thinks no one knows she’s a liar.

I lived in one of the bluest parts of New Jersey (Hudson County, across the river from NYC) for a long time. Moved to South Carolina two years ago and love it here. I don’t miss NJ, nor most of the people who lived there.

I grew up in NY, on Long Island and have family in Northern NJ. Folks got a place in South Carolina as well and now my mom lives down there and loves it. I got down to Georgia 24 years ago and never looked back. My biggest fear for my mother, you and anyone else that was able to escape is, all the insane liberals moving South and destroying it, like they did up North.

Amazing when we look at what the President has accomplished over the last 3 years. And did it, by himself, under investigation and being obstructed by even his “own” party. Imagine where we’d be if he had some support in DC.

If he’s re-elected, God willing, and with the impeachment thing falling apart by the minute, if he’s able to truly expose DC for the cesspool that it is and hopefully, some folks will do some prison time in the process, I think we could see another Republican in the White House after he’s done. The Left is starting to eat itself. Next year is going to be epic and I think the Left and the Dem party will fracture into pieces.

Each party has special interests that want to be taken care of, right? Absolutely.

The Left has its corporate masters and all the other special interests that want something. All the major corporations are run by Leftist shills. Organizations like Planned Parenthood, La Raza and CAIR pull the other set of puppet strings. Then you have academia, union leadership and the tech industry.

What does the Right have? The NRA

Hospitals don't give a rat's hind leg what your complaints are unless you get a lawyer on them or threaten them with legal action and notifying the state and the local media. Then they sit up and listen. I understand your trepidation about hospitals. No one gets well in a hospital. Psychologically it's not an environment conducive to healing. And yeah, the Gunga Din doctors are barely above which doctors. And what most Americans don't know is for every East Indian MD he's bought his wife maybe a couple of kids with him and every other damn family member with him here. His mother will get and be on Social Security in a heartbeat. I've gotten into arguments here with other Freepers who insist this isn't the case but they don't know the reality of what's going. You know it's instinctual in we humans and other mammals that when we're sick or injured we know we're vulnerable so we want to be alone in a quiet,safe and dark space usually with a companion to protect us. Working in a hospital even as a maintenance guy you'd be amazed at how amazingly ... primitive and ..well, human we really are.

Part of it has to be the $52 Trillion price tag, when any child with an internet connection can discover in 5 seconds that the entire U.S. GDP is about $20 Trillion a year. That might explain the weird math:

Warren has now backed all the way down to promising to pass Medicare for All by the end of the third year of her presidency.

So yes, if you divert the entire GDP of the country to the program, that's your timeline. That has minor complications in that some people have other priorities, such as eating.

Oh...I am with you on voting. I never understood why “voting” was so revered. I told my son recently, buying yourself liberty teeth, owning property, being independent, taking care of one’s family are FAR more important than voting. It isn’t that voting is not important, just that people who don’t want to work, nor create value nor have a family don’t have the same skin in the game as I do. I have no problem helping others, but the welfare state is so destructive.

Yes, but also our food, diet and the very design of cities (all commute, no walking) -—> obesity...health costs are at least doubled. Save the Republic? Keep health freedom.
Keep health freedom? Lose weight.

What’s Behind the Retreat ... ?

Logic, common sense?
