        As for quality of care, ha ha, no. It will be worse for the 60% of Americans who have decent insurance now. Giving basic coverage to the uninsured is no small thing, but whether it needs to be at the cost of good medical care for a majority is something that needs to be honestly debated, rather than covering over very hard choices and claiming single payer as a miracle panacea.

        Keeping in mind that even something as clear and obvious as the value of having a doctor who knows you personally is just now beginning to be quantitfied in a way that the hospital conglomerates, HMOs , and insurance companies will even have to notice at all in their ideas of healthcare:

        The thing about soccer is that it's expected for fans to be harsh and unforgiving. These guys are a lot mentally stronger than NFL players, who in comparison are totally pampered.

        Oh yeah. Around the time of the "hard" hike, I loaded up with chicken, beef, orange juice, tofu, fish and chips, chocolate, dark green veggies, tea, vitamin C, and beer. All the high oxalate or dehydrating stuff that contributes to kidney stones.

        Like can be an odd button to press sometimes. "liked" as in "sorry to hear this."

        Wishing you quick recovery from pain, and from the pain killers. They give drugs for the pain, then drugs for the side effects of the drugs, then... And so it goes on. But hey, I'd rather the option was there than not there.

        Just to prove we all have biases (no, to prove that I do!): I'd find it hard to listen to something that sounds like one of those synthetic cream substitutes people used to put on synthetic deserts, errm, desserts, in the 1960s. I can almost remember the TV Ad as if it happened!

        It's sad and difficult question to answer. We can frame it another way. What if we could save more lives diverting Amber Alert funding? Perhaps provide morning breakfasts to the disadvantaged? Or even basic health care to 100 families for a year for every alert not issued? My bet is you guys don't know what it's like to be poor. I grew up poor.

        Nicely put. I agree with you about the difficulty of responsibly allocating funds. Consider the fiasco of abstinence-only education. The money is out there. But its allocation is driven more often by politics than by solid research.

        While a nice thought and something to consider, you know the funding wouldn't be put to good use. This is America. It would probably end up in some rich fucks pocket before being used to help people.
