Casino Health Care
Hey Folks,
Well, the Dispatch has reported: “Bush praises health-savings accounts, but prognosis grim.”
Whenever Bush presents ANYTHING, one thing is perfectly clear: it is designed to make money for those who have money at the expense of those who struggle with what money they have. Nothing different in this case – it’s the same old bullshit.
Bush says “Free Markets and competition have the power to transform our health-care system.” True, but who will benefit from that change?
Bush says, “HSAs are making health care more affordable.” True, but for whom?
According to the story, “The administration argues that, if people are forced to pay more health-care costs out of pocket, they will comparison shop and request quality data, thereby driving down the cost of care.”
Yeah, right! Consumer Reports: “Best Deals on Dialysis !”
The scam, also reported in the story, is: “A consumer who obtains health-care coverage with A HIGH DEDUCTIBLE can set aside money tax-free to pay for such costs as doctor visits or prescription drugs. IF THE MONEY ISN’T USED, it can be rolled over from year to year with any INTEREST earned also TAX FREE.”
The man who was born again and who talks with God wants regular folks to take up gambling! Gambling with their lives. IF the “saved” money is enough (for the rest of ones life) to pay the bills; groovy, Dude! If not, tough shit – we have NEW bankruptcy laws, you know!
If you never, ever get sick; Dude! Think of the Vegas trips you could take on the money you save!! The story reports a Wendy’s corporate pilot who “likes his HSA and Bush’s plan," says he hasn’t yet tapped his account, so "it has turned into a small INVESTMENT”!
Well, isn’t that nice for him.
Of course, things COULD change for the pilot. Even if they don’t, a large portion of Wendey’s employees won’t be so fortunate. But who gives a fuck!? The plan DOES save corporate money!
According to the story, Wendy’s “health-care costs went up only 1 percent last year after HSAs were implemented. Without the change, the increase would have been 11 percent to 13 percent.” So, HSAs DO save money – for Wendy’s!
Do you think that Wendy’s employees “consumer-shopped” their way into a 10 to 12 percent savings for the company? Or do you think the employees took on 10 to 12 percent of the cost and risk?
Pretty obvious. Whenever Bush presents ANYTHING, it is designed to make money for those who have money at the expense of those who struggle with what money they have.
And in this case, it’s the old “divide and conquer” approach: offer a windfall to those who foolishly feel lucky, and they won’t object to screwing their fellows.
The World Can’t Wait!
Bush must go!
Drive him out!
