Too Many Hands Demand Greasing


Lou is not entirely wrong. He never is. Government Health Care as was proposed in the bill that was passed last term won’t work. It was never meant to work. It was to do two things only: (1) to project a show of political strength in an area that had never before been breached; and (2) to throw the entire system into a conniption à la Cloward and Piven.

That is why nobody who voted for it knew the least thing about it. The project was simply handed off to people who are well versed in the politics of confusion and disruption: the Apollo Alliance under the auspices of the Tides Center.

All lawmakers needed to know was that the project was in good, like-minded, left-leaning hands. The rest were strong-armed by party loyalty and procedure. The only defense available to them now is that they were naive and swayed by simple-minded rhetoric. We don’t need naïve lawmakers representing us. They will be removed.

Chennai has become the medical tourist capital of India. Any medical procedure, performed entirely in accordance with Western standards, can be had here for roughly 1/10 of what it would cost in America. This would also include round-trip airfare.

In my own case, I would need two sinus lifts, two bone grafts, two tooth implants and two crowns. All this would come to less than $2000.-. The reason is that here providers must vigorously compete. The business is entirely cash and carry. No interference from insurance companies, trial lawyers, and government red tape. It could be done so in America as well. It’s just that in America just too many hands demand greasing.
