    Health Care

    In his State of the Union address, President Bush proposed tax cuts to make health insurance more affordable for the uninsured. The next day, Stephen Colbert had this to say on his show on Comedy Central: “It’s so simple. Most people who can’t afford health insurance also are too poor to owe taxes. But if you give them a deduction from the taxes they don’t owe, they can use the money they’re not getting back from what they haven’t given to buy the health care they can’t afford.” Just so. As health economists have long known, market incentives induce private insurers to spend vast sums to avoid people who may actually require health care. This problem is mitigated (though not eliminated) by employer-provided group policies. Because Mr. Bush’s proposal would steer people toward individual policies, it would actually strengthen the incentive to shun unhealthy people. Such people can now keep their insurance by not changing jobs. But no private company would want them as individual policyholders at a price anyone could afford. That Mr. Bush’s proposal will not shrink the ranks of the uninsured is not its most serious problem. Far more troubling is its embrace of a system under which we spend more than twice as much on health care, on average, as the 21 countries in which life expectancy exceeds ours. American costs are so high in part because the reliance on private insurance multiplies administrative expenses, currently about 31 percent of total outlays. Most health economists agree that government-financed reimbursement is the only practical way to control these expenses, many of them stemming from insurers’ efforts to identify and avoid unhealthy people. Canada’s single-payer health system, which covers everyone, spends less than 17 percent on administrative expenses. Annual health spending in the United States currently exceeds $2 trillion. A single-payer system that did nothing more than reduce administrative expenses to the levels of other countries would save roughly $300 billion annually.
  7. They would never comment on this forum. Spend too much time climbing. thats one of the craziest things ive heard on this site, as they obviously have plenty of time to spend with other aspects of the media. CC.com is not media. We are entertainment. Pass time.
  8. Don’t know ask them Don’t know ask them Don’t know ask them Don’t know ask them Don’t know ask them Don’t know ask them
  9. No shit.
  10. Takes one to know one. More speculation. You dont know what I know.
  11. "The last question, and perhaps the most frequently asked is "why the taxpayer should foot the bill for rescuing those people who, by choice, subject themselves to a known risk?" Last time I checked, driving your car on the freeway was a "known risk".

  14. What kind of question is this? A stupid one at that. Oh….I forgot. Our teachers taught us that there is no such thing as a stupid questions. Guess you proved that wrong. They were on snow. They obviously felt the need for crampons.

  17. STFU Seahawks. Bon Jovi rules…..Wanted dead or alive. This song kicks ass. The difference between the bands is when you go to a Bon Jovi concert you recognize and sing along to 99% of their songs, with Nicklefags, you might recognize one song…..if you are lucky.
  18. Jesus Christ you like to speculate…..oh wait….im sorry…I forgot. You were there and know exactly what happened.

    You are partly correct - this site is in fact biased against whiny little hoopleheads like you. Thank you for validating my point……truth usually hurts.

    Unfortunately I have found that this site is a little on the biased side of things, this statement is validated by the last page and a half of spray in a climbing forum. The sprayers are Dechisto and G-spotter. If I was the one spraying, my posts would have been pulled long ago. Its unfortunate…..but is what it is. Maybe when I get over 5000 posts, I will be welcomed into the “no matter what I say I don’t get in trouble” group. For now I just keep spray in spray.
  24. McCain is evil. McCain = flipflopper.
  25. Pictures?
