SKUNK!

I read your comment on the Sarah Palin charging for rape exam story. Your lack of compassion for victims of rape is sickening.

Skunk? RE: Chgs for rape kits in AK

Sorry you feel that way.
AS a healthcare manager--it seems logical to me that healthcare costs (even related to violent crime) should be included in an individuals medical benefits.

When possible (until this changes) healthplans should be billed for the professional services and supplies related to violent crime. For those who are uninsured--medicaid, victims of violent crimes (state funds in some states) can be used to pay for these services.

But costs should not be uniformly absorbed by the hospital/healthcare facility, physicians, or taxpayer.

Private profits, socialized risk?

What is Bush trying to do?
The financial bailout touted by Paulin and Bernake, and apparently lauded by both McCain and Obama has not been clearly explained to the American people.

Unclear, is the real (unvarnished) impact of what would happen if nothing was done?

I'm opposed to the taxpayer's income being taken without our approval to bolster mortgage securities--while profits are being derived by those organizations and not returned to the taxpayer.

No to $700 billion bail out.
