Yeah, you’re right. We should totally throw in the towel and go back to the status quo with millions of uninsured who increasingly cannot afford your services. That ought to put food on your table. Absolutely. The bill isn’t perfect, so let’s go back to screwing the people until we come up with perfection… which will be never… but that’s your goal, right?

B J you are right. A wide spread system of health care savings accounts will restore the doctor patient relationship and eliminate third party interference as it grows. Let’s stop complaining about what has gone wrong and talk about how we can all get one. I’ll keep working on the devils in the details at my blog: http://www.talktoyourunconscious.wordpress.com.

the health care system will not be returned to patients and doctors until it has been completely sucked dry of money.

What do say to this… of course the current model and the model which will arise from the reform debacle will be unsustainable. No question… rationing, long waits, failed practices, rise of the mega group or captive PCs will fill the hc landscape in America. The 900 Billion dollar tab put on the pkg will easily hit 3 Trillion and it will NOT improve the efficiency, quality or access to care as *promised*. I’m getting a little tired of reading articles that conclude that doctors and patients should control the health care system where the author stops there…. where are the White Papers? Where are the biz models? If we are going to be serious about this, we need to do far more than postulate that a system which minimizes third party and government involvement can be successful.

This is the type of thinking we need- the recognition that health care is between the patient and a physician, and that we need to strengthen that relationship. The current model and Obama’s plan weaken that.
