Here is my bullet point National Health Care Plan:

* Mandate creation of a National Health Insurance plan provided through private sector insurance companies.
* Cost of each National Health Care policy covering a US permanent legal resident paid by the Federal Government.
* Convert all current government health care recipients (Medicare, Medicaid, Government Employee) to the new plan.
* Set minimum standards, coverage and maximum cost for all plans qualified as National Health Insurance.
* Include full wellness, preventive care, prenatal, pregnancy and complications due to pregnancy coverage.
* Also, include preventive and basic restorative dental, as well as vision benefits with no out of pocket costs.
* Allow individuals to choose their health care insurance company from qualified providers.
* Disallow consideration of all preexisting conditions in issuing National Health Insurance policies.
* Allow insurance riders to be purchased by individuals to provide additional or better coverage.
* Require drug companies to offer minimum prices available to other national plans for all drugs sold in the US.
* Take employers out of the health care game - tax the value of every insurance benefit same as cash compensation.
* Convert Medicare tax to a National Health Insurance tax and set a flat % rate to cover all anticipated costs.

Could this now be incorporated into my earlier question about nursing?

Very good, Mark. I noticed the error during the writing process, but decided to keep it, as this was intended as a "person-on-the-street" series.

BTW, a distant cousin (an English teacher) also noticed the error and reacted similarly.

Mr. Baraban, if you were a president, you would get impeached for your racist/sexist comments, and all your wonderfull thoughts about improving health care would never come true. :cry: :cry:

It was the first rule I've learned in my ESL class 9 years ago. :) :) :)

Please stop accusing me of something you very well know I didn't do. If you keep persisting, I will have no choice bu to sue you for Defamation and Interference with Business Relations.

But you did it. Perhaps you didn't realize it, as it often happens with racists/sexists. Please get that offensive to Russian women minority word off that place, give me back my name, and I won't sue you for treatening sueing me. :cool:

Perhaps a judge could order psychiatric analysis, but I would be more interested in an injunction.

A judge could order psychiatric analysis, but the signs of a serious psychological disorder and possibly a mental sickness are becoming increasingly and rather painfully obvious...:rolleyes: Or it could be even less complicated than that: someone has finally revealed her true face;)

Помницца, была на барабане девушка из Сан Фрациско по кличке Девушка. Однажды я в барабанной беседе с ней упомянула негров и горилл в одном предложении, ничего плохого под этим не подразумевая. Реакция Девушки меня озадачила, она злилась на меня до тех пор, пока до меня не дошло, что я явно чем-то оскорбила её национальные приверженности, и я извинилась.

Кажется, со мной случайно случилась похожая с Девушкой история. Я абсолютно против того, чтоб хозяин сайта клеймил русских женщин плохим словом в Имиграционном разделе форума. Только вот у доброго дяди Барабана, естественно, не хватит этикету на то, чтоб признать себя неправым. Засужу гада. :mafia:

Против психосмотра не возражаю, но только за счёт Барабана. :tongue:

О! Глава обиженного семейства объявился. Как там твоя добродушная жена поживает? С супружескими обязанностями справляется? :lovey:
