Total lack of a plan.
Not much if any information there and certainly no "plan".

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Some basic questions for IAJ
IAJ writes:
Would a catholic conservative be seen taking up Britain's corruption of the Balfour, which happens to be the worst Post-W.W.II crime today?
Are you talking about the Balfour Declaration?
Are you saying that the Balfour Declaration was corrupt or that the Balfour Declaration was corrupted by Britain and that is somehow a crime?
Do you have any idea what the Balfour Declaration really is?
Are you familiar with the McMahon-Hussein Correspondence?
Do you know when WWII happened?

Fire Marks
dronestar writes:
"Denying a fire truck for an emergency fire call while taking revenue from "fire insurance" = higher profit." What? I tried reading this three times for maximum/ANY comprehension. Are you stating in the real world that a fire department has actually made a profit on FIRE-INSURANCE? Really? When has that EVER happened?
Actually, yes that did happen and happen quite often and was a major driving force in the development of the modern fire department concept.
In the early days of "Fire Insurance" the Insurance companies paid fire 'companies' to respond to a fire in one of their insured clients. Each company had a "Fire Mark" that would be displayed on the building identifying the Insurance Company.
The Fire Companies only got paid by the Insurance Company when they responded and made a successful effort to minimize the structural damage to the property. It was quite profitable and there were even incidents of rival Fire Companies getting in fights on the way to the blaze resulting in no one getting there.

Re: Fire Marks
I for one don't play silly games, so your questions will simply be good for a chuckle.

Re: Total lack of a plan.
If you look I imagine you will find that R&D advances also come from ...
Germany
Italy
France
UK
Canada
Japan
China
and guess what health care systems they all have?

Re: Total lack of a plan.
Which still means little.
What was the source of the funding?

Re: Total lack of a plan.
I think you can most definitely say that the additional administrative costs in the US as well as the very idea of a "For Profit" hospital are the major causes of both the terrible quality of US health Care and the high costs.

Re: bad quality?
Yes we have some great technology and great doctors and lousy service and lousy doctors and lousy technology and far too often even the lousy doctors and lousy service and lousy technology is not available to those that need it.
