Opinion: Health Care Problems People Aren't Talking About

Opinion: Health Care Problems People Aren't Talking About: "Though the focus today may be on the massive push of the ObamaCare bill by liberal Democrats and the noisy minority opposition, there are solutions to some major headaches in Health Care staring us in the face. Problem is, no one chooses to see them.
It would seem that news on American healthcare, as embodied in the massive and highly contentious ObamaCare bill, aka HR 3200, is now the hottest topic since Dr. Skippy Gates told Officer James F. Crowley, 'I'll meet with your Mama outside!' In fact, the KJ Mullins oped 'Health Care Reform Would Make Health a Right, Not a Privilege' is now the main story leading Digital Journal, and health care articles dominate DJ's Politics section.
My own opining on the health care debate to date has been less on the health care bill itself than on the demonization of all town hall protesters as corporate racist shills and extreme right wing hate groups. There's a way to sell a public policy, and that ain't it. Whether you believe those Lefty myths is unimportant. Millions of Americans are uprising at town halls all across this nation. Shouldn't the real question be why? And not a knee-jerk response similar to Khamenei's and Ahmadinejad's toward the Green protesters, as also happened to the Tea Partiers? It's getting old fast."


Okay, so let's look at US health care. Problems and solutions. Let's start with KJ Mullins' assessment of health care being a right and not a privilege. With total coverage under government-run ObamaCare as written in HR 3200, which includes full treatment for illegal aliens and full coverage of elective abortions, and adding roughly 40-plus million new covered, will demands for existing services go up or down? Will emergency rooms and waiting lists now become less jammed or more? Or will 1000 brand spanking new hospitals, complete with doctors and nurses, just materialize out of thin air?
