This tug-of-war over medical spending, permitted services and a like from the government ought to be a good indicator of what’s in store for the rest of us, once they fully nationalize the healthcare industry. I have the most sympathy for the doctors that end up being semi-slaves to the state, while holding tons of school debt.

To Josh Im Sloshed Hancock:

There’s a reason people HATE spammers.

I’ll agree. I support Sarah Steelman. She made Missouri the first state to divest state government investment in any corporation that does business with Iran. Out in front on that issue. She deserves the nod.

Ken,

Are you aware that Medicare has no budget limit? How long would your financial security last if you spent far beyond your means year after year? You’d be living in a box under an overpass.

Social Security and Medicare are rapidly approaching bankruptcy, and left-wing groups like the AARP are willing to destroy our economic future and that of future generations in order to grab all the taxpayer monies they can.

When Governor Blunt took office, 20% of Missouri’s citizens were on Medicaid. Even after great economic times, the state was $300,000,000 in the red. Blunt cut the rolls to save the system, which was unsustainable at that rate. And if the system went belly up, no one could be helped.

Mercmutt, If we were so in tthe red, how did the GOP pass so many tax cuts and breaks for businesses?

Blunt and the GOP lied, people died. It’s as simple as that.
