talking about inequities, I see another cutesy guy, the Terminator in California, has terminated Medi cal in a sense

the dingbat now has a requirement that enrollees fill forms 4 times a year.

Everybody knows imposing more paper work and frequent checks is only to encourage more people to fall off and during the time it takes them to re enroll they just sicken and die.

This is a mean and cynical way to cut costs. The Sacramento Bee and whoever do gooder says it will cost the same is wrong, it will save money by kicking off people who are too tired, too poor or too sick to keep re enrolling 4 times a year.

You think about it, even in a good state of health and functionality, if something required 4 times a year re enrollment, chances are you will fall off. If you are sick, poor or exhausted and over worked, you will fall off.

Arnie was a fraud from Day one with his bonhomie and ha, ha, ha, crap. But serves the people of California right, they elected him, which goes for the Unions too. There was very poor support for Bustamente and later for Phil Angelidis, who both had excellent leftie creds.

Except for a small deep blue area of San Francisco and maybe a couple other places, the State went red.

No doubt if people like Couric, or Gibson or Staphylococcus grilled the Terminator, he would find some choice fuzzy phrases to make his policy look good. Surprising we dont hear any bawling from Uncle Ted, Caroline and her skinniness liposuction herself, Maria Shriver.

It is a total travesty.

Meanwhile, I see Florida Senate has unanimously approved their Governor's health care plan which will extend basic coverage for about $2000 a year. It is still too high for the folks who work in school custodian, check out counters, gas stations etc.

But it is a good start. I think and hope. We'll see.

BTW, I am pretty sure if Couric grilled the Terminator the floor crew would have to wrench her from off his lap and keep her from nibbling his ear and licking his cheek. Gibson would try in his stuffy way to keep the conversation on track, where as the Staphylococcus would aid and enable him to phrase it in an All America glorious way as if enrolling 4 times a year was the best thing sinced sliced bread.

Really, the cynicism and uselessness of some people.

BTW, I found both news items on a new site I found for medical news and prolly now I have found them, somebody will get to them and force them to change their lefty ways and we will get All Glorious All American News from Now on.

Medical News today also had a slightly ironic bent until about 6 weeks ago, then suddenly their coverage changed and voila, there is no irony whatsoever, there is less critical evaluation of medical claims and there is more stuffy reporting of various UK county and USA state and federal medical related news.

What a damn pity.
