Bill,

Normally I would agree, but with the Hilton twit I take
particular exception. I'm so sick of the moron distraction
that I refuse to stay in any Hilton hotel when I travel,
and I travel every week. It's just my way of saying "good job"
to the Hilton's ( parents & children alike ) for their contribution
to society.

Perhaps if more of us did the same, they might just get the
idea that some of us, who work hard to raise our children to
be moral and good, are fighting back. Then, much like the
"old days", pressure from society might get them to sit up
and take notice. Where exactly are the freak-a-zoid parents
of the Hilton sisters anyway? Never saw then until ding-bat
went to jail. Oh, did anyone else notice the Hilton
family commercials lately? Maybe others are boycotting the
hotel chain as well.

Steve

Paris sure is easy on the eyes but my eyes are getting a little tired. Here sister is better-looking, IMHO.

I am posting this from the Hyatt O'Hare so I am doing my part in avoiding the Hilton, at least on this trip!

Well Today I received yet another rejection This was with AARP with United Health care
I called them and they told me my wife was uninsurable because she has type 2 Diabetes
I also called the # you gave and they were no help
I will tell you once you go into the mid 50s you are screwed She gets laid off and has been on lots of interviews but no offers I am 100 % sure it is her age
So here I am on disability and my wife has no health insurance
Say what you will about Michael Moore but the whole health issue in the US is a total joke. The middle class is getting hammered to death There are millions out there just like us BUT this country will waste so much money in Iraq and the hell with the Americans here at home
Sorry for the rant I am just pissed and tried of all the B/S

My father works in a factory and makes around $12 an hour. His monthly health insurance just jumped up to $300 a month.

I'll never watch anything by MM. The guy has an agenda, but his acting like he's so not obvious sickens me. If he really wanted to do something constructive, why now??

No emergency room in the US can turn down a patient that is in need of medical attention. It is the people that pay outrageous amounts (I pay $2,400 a month for my wife and I) and have large deductibles that are getting screwed. Sorry but I can't get free medical services like illegals and so-called "poor" Americans.

Moore's methods aside, reading this thread and Norm's plight makes me feel even more fortunate to be here in Canada where standard heath care is simply part of being a Canadian!.
Yes our system has it's flaws and problems but worse is the way health care is just another thing we simply take for granted each and every day...much like freedom!.

Not to those HMO CEOs, corporate board members and major share holders who have gotten rich off of it.

You are a victim of "managed care." The HMO's job is to manage the amount of expenditure per patient in order to maximize profit. That's just Business 101, of course, except in this case people are allowed to die in order to control cost.

I think the movie comes out this week? I assume this thread will get even more interesting once the movie's out.
