"Obamacare" and Jim Crow Laws

“Obamacare” and Jim Crow Laws

excerpt:

If Blacks had known anything about the Commerce Clause, they would have encouraged President Obama to stay away from it.  It would give Chief Justice John Roberts an opportunity to replay the role of Justice Joseph P. Bradley of the U.S. Supreme Court after he engineered the Tilden-Hayes Compromise in 1877.  History is repeating itself.

Racial Concordance as a method to decrease healthcare disparities among African Americans

Racial Concordance as a method to decrease healthcare disparities among African Americans

http://www.cwru.edu/med/epidbio/mphp439/Racial_Concordance.pdf

excerpt:
What can be done?
The American college of Physicians in 2004 composed a position paper that supports more minority physicians in the US, however there are no clinical trial results that confirm the assumption that more minority physicians will result in a decrease in healthcare disparities. What is known that race concordant visits are more satisfying that discordant physicians visits. One solution ala Oprah Winfrey would be to recruit talented minority students, preferably within the first three years of grade school, and expose these students to study skills, state- of- the -art science and math courses and foster self esteem. Surround these students with positive role models, affirmations that empower and healthy foods and expect excellence. These students will become healthcare professionals and scientists, pass on their toolkit for life and success to their offspring which will again be passed on to where it is viewed as uncommon not to become an educated valuable part of society.

Time for a third party

The tight knit Republican party despises the Tea Party just as much as the radical Alinskyite Democrats.

Republicans and Democrats are in lock step with each other.

This country has gone to he!! in a hand basket.

Lots of laughs

World leaders offer to buy Kerry his meals.

Maybe he can put on a black tux and tie and be the butler. World leaders can call him Lurch.

What they gonna do now

CNN says Obamacare site doomed. Needs to be rebuilt from scratch.

White House meets with insurance company top dogs today.

What will they do? I think Obama is going to turn over enrollment directly to the insurance companies.They will handle all verification. If the website is busted what are all these people going to do who had their health care terminated from insurance companies. Millions of people without medical insurance. Gonna be a lot of pissed off people.

The white house may need to drop the individual mandate and fines for no insurance.

One big cluster fuk. Do you trust the government with your health care?

This is all Obamas now. Plus all the dems in congress.

Obama and the dems sold it. They own it.

The Tea Party did not know nuthin in those raucous town hall meetings. Just a bunch of illiterate red necks. Yeah right.

Uh oh: Carney dodges question on whether individual mandate might need to be delayed

excerpt: emphasis in excerpt by jap69


    CARNEY: We’re three weeks into a six-month enrollment period. As I said, the law itself as written makes clear that Americans with access to affordable insurance would need to have insurance by March 31. But people that do not have access to affordable care, due to a state not expanding Medicaid — and there are states out there who are depriving their own residents of access to expanded Medicaid because they made that choice — or due to other factors, will not be penalized. That is number one. When it comes to the issue I was just talking to Brianna about, with the February 15 marker period, I would refer you to HHS for more details, but they are looking to align the policies, the disconnect between open enrollment period and the individual responsibility timeframes, which exists in the first year only.
