		<description><![CDATA[When evil is accepted as good, everyone loses. Chicago once a good town, over the years, accepted Al Capone, Saul Alinksky, Cardinal Bernadine, Mayor Daily, Barack Obama. What has been the fruit of this town towards improving the United States of American. The answer - NOT A DAMN THING! 



Every time this particular Chicagoan opens his pie hole, you know that its not going to be a benefit to anyone. He is fruitless, anti-Catholic, anti-American, Pro-abortion, Pro-gay, Pro-Muslim war mongering loser, etc. Just what good does this man do for we Americans? It&#039;s like having England&#039;s (miserable) King John with his Nottingham Sheriff (DOJ) Eric Holder, neither Obama nor his sheriff does any good for the citizens of this country. Its time for a change. Chicago needs to change its way   Get rid of Rahm Emmanuel as well.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Liberalism is a cancer put out by the corrupted educational 
system in America, government schools send out their activists
into every corner of society, the Catholic Church included.
Communism and Catholicism are strange bedfellows, I can not
for the life of me see how the Church expects to prepare the
faithful for the return of Christ while in bed with His enemies.
Biblical authority has been sublimated for worldly ambitions
and the destruction of so many by the use of religion to
control rather than liberate man in the way to restoration,
redemption and salvation by the Gospel message.....William]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Begrudging doctors, who  train at high expense until they are nearly middle aged, for their compensation is an easy out and a typical ignorant Marxist perspective. First of all, not all are actually paid well. Secondly nurses and other assistants are now making exceptional money. 
Before speaking, it is important to check facts. 
Soon all your medical care will be offered by people with less education, training and skills. They will be paid well. But you may not get well. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Selective quoting and misleading headlines. Here is the preceding paragraph and why this law is being out in place.

&quot;A new provision in Section 501 of the Internal Revenue Code, which takes effect under Obamacare, sets new standards of review and installs new financial penalties for tax-exempt charitable hospitals, which devote a minimum amount of their expenses to treat uninsured poor people.&quot;

In other words if non profits are NOT serving a community in need effectively then they should not be non profit and ripping off the rest of us....DUH! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everyone needs to understand there are two conspirators in promulgating the disaster that is Obamacare. First is government, in DC and at the state level. Multiple states, including states with GOP governors like AZ and OH, have elected to take the Obama Candy to salvage poorly run Medicaid programs laden with state determined healthcare mandates vice fight for real free market reform of healthcare in their states. Second...not insurance companies...it&#039;s hospital systems! This includes some so-called non-profits that bank money away, like Planned Parenthood, in a variety of Foundations, affiliated organizations and exempt tax structures. Anyone who wants to understand the treachery at work here between Democrats, Obama, hospital systems and the partners of hospital systems, unions like SEIU, needs to read Avik Roy&#039;s piece at   https://www.nationalreview.com/nrd/articles/353802/arm-and-leg]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[LOL. Memo to Anon...the glory days of doctoring are long gone. And BTW Anon, know how much it costs to go to med school and how many years it took me to pay off the debt to work 80 hours a week to serve you. Mind you I chose this profession and am called to serve you but I think you might want the person who is holding your life in their hands reasonably compensated. Don&#039;t know how many lives A-Rod, Justin Beiber or George Clooney has saved but doctors don&#039;t even dream of that kind of money. If you really want what you describe, check out England and the NHS. They can&#039;t train doctors there anymore. The answer...fly in locum tenens docs...from Southwest Asia. Our healthcare system is the best in the world and could be better, but will die if the progressives like Anon have their way. See you in the ER Anon.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our community had a nice hospital that was taken over by Providence.  They did a $27 million remodeling and additions to it - but left the patients beds at only 12.  You go into the hospital for blood test or x-ray, you actually go to 3 different people before you get to the x-ray tech.  Of course, someone has to pay those people so, it cost me over $600 for the emergency room visit when I broke my leg and that didn&#039;t include the cost of the x-rays, doctor or anything else.  Then, when I got my bill it showed they took a urine test and also had to pay someone to &quot;read&quot; the urine test.  As I told them, I didn&#039;t urinate while I was there so why are they charging me for the test.  They said I was wrong and they stood by their charges.  I don&#039;t know about you, but I know when I take a pee in a cup.
So, that is how they make their money.  They charge for services they don&#039;t provide.]]></description>
