Must we continue to pay for emergency room care for the uninsured, if the Court rules out Obama Care?

by Barry Gourmet and Raw

Question by : Must we continue to pay for emergency room care for the uninsured, if the Court rules out Obama Care?
As it is now, if someone who does not choose to pay for health care gets shot in a hunting accident, or mangled by falling off a cliff, or has a massive heart attack, or gets struck by lightning, or gets a deadly staph infection, or gets food poisoning from eating something imported from china, or develops pneumonia, or gets lung cancer from smoking cigarettes, or has an in-grown toenail, or has the sniffles, or does not feel good, or is going bald, or has something in their eye, or has a rash, or is constipated from eating junk food, or has noticed their memory is failing, or they cannot see as well as they could last week, or wants advice on how to lose weight, or thinks a ghost is following them, or their back hurts, or has a sunburn, or has a muscle cramp. or simply believes they are about to die, or any one of the millions of real or imagined maladies that people explain to the emergency rooms every year, we, you and me, have to pay for it through increased insurance premiums on the health insurance we did choose to buy.

The Mandate in Obama care shifts that cost to those who refuse to buy health care insurance. It does this through the IRS as a penalty on their taxes. What is wrong with that? It works and is popular in Massachusetts; how is it that they are so different from the rest of us?
@Tom R: Ever given much thought to the theory of “just reading” being different from “reading with understanding?”
@Oryen and @Sagebrush try reading and understanding what you read. Or, close your mind and continue paying constantly increasing costs of health insurance so that others will just wait until they need health care abd then go to the ER, and you can pay for their treatment through higher costs for your own insurance.
@Dracion: You simply do not know what you are talking about. No one goes to jail with regards to Obama Care for any reason; pay or not.
@Uhlan: “I look forward to reading non-answers from conservatives.” Well, you must be having the time of your life here.
Bath yourself in a glorious display of ignorance and enjoy the answers that follow yours. Thanks.

Q&A: Why do global warming deniers continue to slander James Hansen?

Question by Dana1981: Why do global warming deniers continue to slander James Hansen?
Mr Jello and Liberal continually slander James Hansen, claiming that he’s taken bribes from Kerry and Soros to…well, then don’t specify for what purpose. They’re content just to slander James Hansen and leave it at that.

Are global warming deniers so lacking in quality arguments to support their positions that they have to resort to slandering brilliant scientists?

I could spend all day pointing out the flaws in the few skeptic scientists. For example, the fact that Tim Ball lies about his credentials and is really just a geographer, or that Richard Lindzen doesn’t believe that smoking causes lung cancer, but I’d rather discuss scientific evidence. I’d rather pick apart what Tim Ball tries to argue rather than point out that he’s not an expert on the subject, as he claims.

Would global warming deniers rather slander people like Hansen and Gore than discuss scientific evidence, as appears to be the case? Why do they never discuss Hansen’s scientific arguments?
What a shock, Mr Jello continues to slander him.

Bob does an excellent job providing Liberal and Mr Jello with a reality check in his answer here:

Answer by Mr Jello
What I find interesting is how many fine minds are torched and trashed, ruined and wrecked because “they took oil money”, but yet someone who took money from a “politicization of science” group can remain objective in your mind.

Here’s a group that states in their name that their goal is to politicize science and that’s fine? I guess objective science is dead, that “science” only depends on who or how many believe a statement to make that fact.

How sad. It’s a shame to see the product of today’s school systems.

Why continue to repeat CT lung scans?

Question by Therese W: Why continue to repeat CT lung scans?
Have multiple noncalcified lung nodules. Have had 1 PET scan which was benign. Have had CT lung scans every 6 mos for the past 4 yrs (with and without contrast). Why should I continue to have these scans?

Best answer:

Answer by MadforMAC
Wow, that’s a lot of radiation going into your body with the CT scans every 6 months. Does your doctor want to monitor the nodules because he/she suspects them to be pre-cancerous? I would really do some homework on those nodules. Contact the American Lung Association.

Q&A: Is this an intriguing first page of my story? Would YOU continue reading?

Question by .: Is this an intriguing first page of my story? Would YOU continue reading?
Prologue:

Why must I keep reassuring you people that I’m not crazy? Does this face look like the face of the insane? I don’t hear any voices that must be silenced in my head. I don’t feel the urge to dart in front of a train. Yet, I get flashed those looks. That awful side-glance accompanied by twisted frowns and hushed whispers. They are the looks of those who don’t know. Those people don’t know the trauma I go through and the horror I’ve experienced.
Every night I cringe to sleep, thinking of the horrible and twisted death I know my imagination has come up with. How shall the death in this nightmare be carried about this time? Every day is a nightmare in the life of me, Blair Colleen. Every day, I live with a mother whose eyes are blinded by alcohol, so blinded she’s become a handicap for caring for her daughter. Every minute, I think of my father. The father that had a second life, the father whose only reason for not leaving my mother was because the cancer wouldn’t let him. The same father that that let the cancer win.
Then, there’s when we moved to Maine. In Maine, I realized I possessed magic from the core of my bloodline. But, my life isn’t a fairytale one and that’s not what I’m implying. I can guarantee you my story doesn’t have a happy ending. Murder will be convicted in Maine, mostly wished upon me by the enemy. Blood will be shed in Maine. Losses occur at both sides of this war because, after all, with a loss there comes a gain, hopefully.

Chapter 1
First Days
“Where there is mystery, it is generally expected there must also be evil.”
-Lord Byron (1788-1824) British Poet

I could have easily turned to drugs. Luke down the street sells weed to every kid on the block. The exchange would have been like a knife through butter, smooth. I could have taken down a bottle of my mom’s antidepressants. It would have been simple to slip myself an extra dozen pills. Sipping them down with Rebecca’s tequila was the visual image in mind.
I could have done any amount of these things, to any extent. But that wasn’t the way I handled things. That wasn’t me. I didn’t rage out when I was told we were moving to Maine. I don’t express myself, like the counselors at my old school told me I should do. I don’t bake a cake when I feel happy and I don’t punch a pillow when I’m sad. I just sit, suffer in silence, or like now, suffer in the passenger seat of our rust orange station wagon. I dug my nails into the bottom of the seat, my restraint from slapping sense into my mother.
The pathetic part of it all is I knew this was coming and I hadn’t stopped it. Unfortunately, I just can’t get used to moving every couple of years because my mom can’t keep a steady job. When she gets fired, she gets frustrated and flustered and does what she does best, runs away from her problems. My mother thought that moving would solve her problems, and maybe bandage the humiliation, but it never did. I wish I had the heart to tell my mother that no matter where she lived, she would still be an alcoholic who, besides not being able to hold a job, hadn’t been able to hold a steady boyfriend as well. But every time anger swished inside of me, building up to tell her the truth, it all flooded out of me in fear of making her stress worsen.
My stomach lurched when the smell of my mother’s cigarette hit my lungs. I shot her a glare. I sunk in my chair and practiced my breathing exercises until I calmed down. My mother knew how I felt about her cigarettes. Each inhale she took she was killing herself further and I didn’t need to lose another parent.
here ya go whiners [: I have written so far 54 pages [although words counts not pages] & my book is titled Seven Deadly Sinners. I am 14.

Suddenly, the radio that had been safely keeping me from communicating with my mother during these long hours of driving suddenly died as the blue glow faded away with my hope of solitude. I swore under my breath and turned up the volume on my ipod. My mom cleared her throat but mentioned nothing. I was already used to her stern glares and her clearing of throats that meant ‘that is not acceptable’, so she didn’t bother. I was just mad at myself for not being able to hold grudges for over a week. I had forgiven my mother for making us move, basically inflating her decision to do it once more in the near future. But, I still hoped that the guilt was attacking her, creeping up her spine and finally exploding in gunfire so much she pulled out her hair and spun the car to go back home. At least then we’d have a destination, unlike now, how she was jus
just going all the way across the country just to drive, to lead another life.
I glanced at her from under my baseball hat, but her face was perfectly serene; no gunfire just yet. My mother’s lips were tight, just like the bun in her hair with gray peeking out. Her eyes flicked to me. I shifted my weight uncomfortably with my arm resting on the armrest instead of my leg. I yanked off my headphones unwillingly to at least pretend to listen to her so-called, ‘quality time talk’.
“Blair, I’m doing the best I can. There’s no roadmap to parenting. I’m trying, honey,” My mom’s voice cracked, as if unsure about what she was saying. Out of the corner of my eye I saw her crooked smile while she looked at me, expecting me to return it. When I didn’t respond, smile or even acknowledge her, she gave up and tried concentrating on the wet and rainy road ahead. My mother dropped her cigarette and cranked up the window.

How do I show support for my child’s daycare provider AND ask if she still plans to continue working?

Question by frankie: How do I show support for my child’s daycare provider AND ask if she still plans to continue working?
My home daycare provider’s husband was diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer last week. It is a very small center with only 4 young children. My daughter (1year old) has been under this woman’s care for the last 9 months and her husband is retired so while he doesn’t help care for the children he does interact with them quiet a bit. I wanted to do something nice but I am at a loss for what would be appropriate. This woman does an excellent job with my daughter and I am assuming that any day she will be cancelling our contract to take care of her husband’s medical needs. I don’t want to seem insensitive and bluntly ask if she plans to continue to work but I need to know to arrange childcare. How long would you wait to ask what the family’s plans are? Would you do something nice to show support?

Best answer:

Answer by Mallory
Maybe she will still continue to work? Medical bills can get expensive.
I’m sure she will let you know if she is planning to close her daycare. It is her business and she is a professional. She wouldn’t just leave you high and dry after paying her for 9 months.

It will not get any worse but it is unlikely to improve much either but if some of the deposits get cleared from your lungs that it still better than nothing, it is NEVER too late to stop smoking, drink plenty of water can help your health in general recover to a certain extent but your lungs would be knackered after 40 years

Why do teens still continue to start smoking?

by Monsieur.Zenein

Question by j: Why do teens still continue to start smoking?
It doesn’t make any sense to me with all the information on lung cancer and all the other health problems caused by smoking why young teens still start smoking. Besides Its pointless and dumb. Its freaking smoke on a stick whats so great about that? You can’t get high off it. It really does nothing but stink and make you sick.
how am I an a*hole for stating my opinion grow up. as for the person that said this “2 words..SMOKING BAN. The idiots that made this ban happen caused this. Teen smoking has increased since the bans started because of all the attention toward smoking, so more and more became curious…So taking away my adult right to smoke, YOU caused this to happen by supporting the smoking bans”

If that’s the reason teens start smoking then they are stupider than I though. I don’t care if your right to smoke was tooken away thats not what this is about. Don’t be a baby about it. boo hoo you can’t kill everyone else with your secondhand smoke. I2 words..SMOKING BAN. The idiots that made this ban happen caused this. Teen smoking has increased since the bans started because of all the attention toward smoking, so more and more became curious…So taking away my adult right to smoke, YOU caused this to happen by supporting the smoking bans. Smoke in private not in public.

Mesothelioma Lawsuits Continue Throughout Country  

Mesothelioma Lawsuits Continue Throughout Country  

Article by Agatha Simona

A Texas man who spent his career painting buildings was awarded million after he claimed to have developed mesothelioma from asbestos-containing painting products. Vernon Walker, 67, of Dallas spent years working daily with contaminated products such as texturing paints, block fillers and drywall compounds, some of which were banned by the Consumer Products Safety Commission in the 1970′s because of their asbestos. Forty percent of the settlement is to come from asbestos mining company Union Carbide and the rest from various paint product manufacturers.Union Carbide took another recent hit in court from a former employee, who won his million suit against the company and two others he blamed for his mesothelioma. Oscar Torres’ suit alleged that workers at the plant were not properly protected against asbestos exposure and were not warned of its potentially lethal consequences. Asbestos is the only known cause of mesothelioma.A paper mill worker in South Carolina has won a .2 million lawsuit against Scapa Dryer Fabric, Inc. and AstenJohnson. Henry Barabin claims the companies used high amounts of asbestos in their products, and used poorly designed equipment that put laborers like him at risk for inhaling the toxic dust when they handled or cleaned up around the dryer fabrics. Barabin worked at the mill from 1968 to 1984. He was diagnosed with mesothelioma in 2006.Meanwhile, a Houston couple is hoping to prove that 49 companies were negligent in protecting refinery worker Corbett Duhon against the dangers of asbestos. The suit names such industrial giants as Viacom, Ford Motor Company and AMF Incorporated, and claims that Duhon was exposed to a wide range of asbestos products while working in various shipyards, mills and refineries for more than 20 years. Duhon developed mesothelioma in December of 2009.The Virginia Senate has defeated a proposal that would have protected a company there against mesothelioma and asbestos lawsuits. According to the Washington Post, Crown Cork & Seal has been named in more than 300,000 asbestos claims and has paid out more than 0 million. The company employs more than 300 people in Virginia and has said that it will have to close its door if the bill didn’t past. Despite intense and expensive lobbying efforts, the bill failed by a vote of 13 to 2.And in Kansas, it is not what is happening in the courtrooms, but the courtrooms themselves that are the source of asbestos controversy. The Kansas City Star reports that a series of lawsuits filed recently claim that workers and visitors to a downtown courthouse have been exposed to asbestos for years, due to faulty ventilation. The suits claim that asbestos dust in the old courthouse collects around the heating and air-conditioning systems, putting anyone nearby as risk for inhalation. Renovation, demolition and maintenance projects have been going on in the building for more than 30 years.

Breaking Bad Seasons Continue To Enthrall the Audience!  

Breaking Bad Seasons Continue To Enthrall the Audience!  

Article by Johnbrown

Created and produced by Vince Gilligan, Breaking Bad has stirred the consciences of millions of viewers to such an extent, that they are not able to miss any of the seasons of the show. The remarkable success of the show has made the network renew it for a 4th season. The story of the show revolves around the life of Walter White played by Bryan Cranston. Walter is a struggling high school chemistry teacher, who discovers that he is suffering from an advanced stage of lung cancer. To secure his family�s future, he indulges in criminal activities including producing and selling of a dangerous drug – methamphetamine.Walter does not get involved in these illegal activities alone, but is assisted by his student Jesse Pinkman played by Aaron Paul. Viewers, who watch Breaking Bad episodes, relish the expert performances of Cranston and Paul, which has been chiseled to perfection due to Gilligan’s creative skills. The show has received rave reviews from the critics. It is one of those rare shows, which have accumulated six Emmy Awards including three successive wins for Lead Actor in a Drama series, for Cranston.The audiences seem to be attracted to Breaking Bad due to the touching and sensitive nature of the plot. With Walter’s wife pregnant and his son suffering from cerebral palsy, the storyline makes it quite tough for the people to watch it. In spite of the show demanding immense courage to be viewed, audiences are addicted to the various seasons of the show. It seems that the psychodrama, which was filmed around Albuquerque located in New Mexico, has carved a niche for itself in the hearts of its diehard fans.Most of the viewers are not aware of the origins of the show’s name, even though they are addicted to the Breaking Bad seasons. According to Cranston, the term is a southern colloquialism, which is used for someone, who has deviated from the straight and narrow path and took the wrong path. This situation may last for a single day or a lifetime and in the series, it is almost for a lifetime.In case you are wondering about the budget of the show, let me tell you that the show has cost much more than the average cable program. About million were spent to produce a single episode of the show. One of the unique features of the show is that its rolling credits display the symbols of chemical elements in some way or the other. For instance, when you watch Breaking Bad online, you will find that the symbols Br and Ba have been used to denote Breaking Bad. Even the formula of methamphetamine has been displayed in the opening credits.Thus, with the network renewing the show for another season, I think the obsession for it will continue!

Mesothelioma and Asbestos Lawsuits Continue Worldwide

Mesothelioma and Asbestos Lawsuits Continue Worldwide  

Article by Agatha Simona

Victims of mesothelioma, a deadly form of cancer caused by exposure to asbestos, and other asbestos-related illnesses, continue to file and win lawsuits around the country.

A Bloomington, Illinois factory worker was recently awarded .87 million after she contracted mesothelioma following exposure during the 1960s. According to Illinois newspaper, The Pantagraph, Jayne Menssen was a secretary at Union Asbestos and Rubber Company from 1967 to 1969. The suit alleged that the owners of the company, Pneumo Abex LLC and Honeywell International Inc., knew about the risks of asbestos and did not warn their employees.

The Chevron oil company is facing a similar lawsuit from the family of a Texas man who died of asbestos exposure. Shelton Fontenot worked as a pipefitter and instrument mechanic for Chevron in Port Arthur, Texas. The suit alleges Fontenot died a “painful and terrible” death from pulmonary asbestosis and lung cancer last June, according to The Southeast Texas Record. The family claims that Chevron failed to express the risks to employees or take any action to protect them.

The gloves are off between two Australian asbestos manufacturers after one of them has launched proceedings against the other in an effort to get a contribution toward compensation of a 48-year-old Victoria man. As reported in The Australian this week, the man, Robert Berengo, won his million suit against Amaca (formerly James Hardie) after claiming that he contracted mesothelioma from hugging his father, a painter in the 1960s. Amaca is taking action against CSR claiming there is no way to know which company manufactured the asbestos. Until last year, the two companies had agreed to share the costs of such cases.

In New Orleans, a long-standing mesothelioma lawsuit made headlines after a judge decided to delay the trial because of the New Orleans Saints’ involvement in the Super Bowl. According the The Times-Picayune, the family of Diane Rome Becnel is suing Northrop Grumman for exposing Becnel’s father – and her, through contact with him – to asbestos when he worked at the Avondale shipyard. The trial had been pending since 2005.

A county with one of the busiest asbestos dockets in the country has a new judge to oversee those cases. Madison County Illinois Circuit Judge Barbara Crowder has been assigned to hear asbestos and mesothelioma cases, replacing a retiring judge. Last year, more than 200 asbestos-related cases were filed in Madison country, 28 of them in December alone.

Q&A: Why does emphysema continue to worsen even if I stop smoking ?

Question by monti: Why does emphysema continue to worsen even if I stop smoking ?
Ok, I got it that smoking has most likely caused my emphysema and I got it that emphysema is a non reversible condition. But why does emphysema gets worse, even if I stop smoking ? Does that mean that emphysema is a natural aging process just that in most cases people die for other reason before they’re getting diagnosed with emphysema ? And if yes, why does an (diagnosed) emphysema then develops faster than under the “regular” aging process ?

Best answer:

Answer by Person
Hi

Emphysema isn’t a natural process of aging; it involves loss of elasticity of the lung tissue, which i suppose might happen to a very small degree in normal old age, but nothing like the scale of emphysema. As far as I know it doesn’t worsen when you stop smoking; it just doesn’t get better. I.e. unlike other aspects of Smoking-associated lung disease (e.g. the smoker’s cough), emphysema is not reversible. This is because there have been changes to the fundamental structures of the lungs which cannot be undone.

Congratulations on giving up though, and keep it up!

P.S. also, although it might not feel like it’s getting better, quitting also massively improves your future health and life expectancy!

Why Do Our U.S. Tax Dollars Continue To Support Terrorism?

by pencrush

Question by Richard V: Why Do Our U.S. Tax Dollars Continue To Support Terrorism?
3 Billion Dollars in U.S. Military Aid goes to Israel every year for F-16s, Apache attack helicoptors, Hellfire Missiles and other weapons used to kill over 500 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip in one week.

Testimony: Five girls in one family killed by Israeli bombing
Testimony, B’Tselem, 4 January 2009

Samira Tawfiq Said Balousha, 36, married with nine children, is a homemaker and a resident of Jabalya refugee camp in the Gaza Strip. Her testimony was given to B’Tselem’s Muhammad Sabah by telephone on 30 December 2008:

My husband and I lived with our children in a three-room asbestos house in Jabaliya refugee camp. The house is next to Imad Aqel Mosque. We had nine children: Tahrir, 17, Iman, 16, Ikram, 14, Samar, 12, Samah, 10, Dunia, 7, Juhar, 4, Muhammad who’s a year and a half and Bara, who’s two weeks old.

Last Saturday [27 December], after the Israeli bombing began and after pieces of asbestos fell from our house because of the bombing of the district-government building, my husband and I took the children and went to my father’s house. We stayed there for one day and then returned home and continued our normal life — I did house work and the girls prepared for their mid-year tests that were to take place during the week.

On Monday [29 December], around 11:50pm, I woke up and heard my husband calling to me: “Samira, Samira, they shelled the mosque, get up and see, and recite the Shahada [Prayer of the dying].” It was dark, and I couldn’t see anything. I recited the Shahada. I felt something heavy choking me and pressing on my body. I was buried under a concrete clock, stones, and sand, and barely managed to move. I succeeded in freeing my hand and pushed aside the things that had fallen on me. I got up and went to look for my children.

I found Bara, my two-week-old daughter. She was alive, even though her bed was buried under the ruins. I saw my husband getting out of the ruins, and I handed Bara to him.

I then went to look for my son Muhammad, who was sleeping next to me. At first, I didn’t see him because of the rubble, but I found him alive under the ruins. I managed to free him, and I gave him to one of the people who came to help clear away the rubble.

In the meantime, I continued to look for my daughters. Their bedroom was covered with blocks of concrete and stones and sand. Other people helped me look for them. I was very weak because I had been injured in the head, and I was taken to Kamal Adwan Hospital.

At the hospital, I learned that five of my daughters — Tahrir, Ikram, Samar, Dunia, and Juhar — had been killed, and three were wounded. Muhammad was injured all over his body, mostly in the face.

Israel bombed the mosque next to our house without warning and without thinking about the people who live next to it. Lots of houses in the area were damaged in the blast.

Richard Falk, United Nations Human Rights Council :

“The Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip represent severe and massive violations of international humanitarian law as defined in the Geneva Conventions, both in regard to the obligations of an Occupying Power and in the requirements of the laws of war.

Those violations include:

Collective punishment – the entire 1.5 million people who live in the crowded Gaza Strip are being punished for the actions of a few militants.

Targeting civilians – the airstrikes were aimed at civilian areas in one of the most crowded stretches of land in the world, certainly the most densely populated area of the Middle East.

Disproportionate military response – the airstrikes have not only destroyed every police and security office of Gaza’s elected government, but have killed and injured hundreds of civilians; at least one strike reportedly hit groups of students attempting to find transportation home from the University.”

Answer by mark
For the last 60 years the Palestinian Refugees are living in a United Nation Refugee Camps waiting for UN to implement the UN Security Council resolutions. For the last 60 years Israel conducts collective punishment and state terror against the Palestinian Refugees. That is not making a fake news.
Occupying other people by force is losing policy in the past and now and has no future.
No one could NOT change his mind unless he has no mind.
