JetBlue to cancel traditional healthcare plans

[Oakum_Boy]

Funny. None of you have spent any time in a European hospital. Family member spent six days in an Italian one.

No air conditioning (middle of summer), no toilet paper (supplied by family), no food ( supplied by family), MRI not available (did without), no specialist available to read MRI even if it was done (city of 150,000).

Their lifestyle contributes to their longevity. NOT quality of their healthcare. Our is the best, point blank period.

Heck, even my regional airline provides a PPO option. No chance in heck I'll leave for a place like JetBlue. What are they thinking? Lowering the bar, what else.

No, you're not informed. At best, you're Heritage Foundation, Fox News informed... I don't have the time or the desire to prove someone like you wrong.

But I didn't say you couldn't get great care if you are lucky enough to afford it or have a nice union, executive or government job. I said our SYSTEM was terrible. That includes our laws, structure, access and the way we finance our system. Our outcomes and access to care are NOT justified by the costs. We are not getting good value for our money. We are being ripped off systematically.

You can be manipulated into a false sense of American superiority and puff your chest out at fluff pieces of "journalism" about how America has the best health care in the world by politicians and industry (often they are the same anyway). I will not. I prefer to approach things with an open mind, and not participate in "dumb patriotism" when it isn't deserved.

Open mind=liberal socialist b.s

Our system continues to support non citizens while neglecting the rest of us. But hey we have to take of everybody....
