  1. Nonprofits skipping payments, cutting staff because of Pa. budget impasse

    K98 replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    When my folks lived in Florida, they told me that the legislature there met for 90 days each year. Imagine the savings if we could get our "elected" idiots to stay home for nine months of the year....

  2. medicare index keeps wages down in Western Pa

    K98 replied to oramar's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    A former classmate of mine is a hospital administrator now. He found parts of this article laughable. Especially the part where hospital honchos don't outsource because they want to keep the maximum...

    K98 replied to Agrippa's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Start revolting. The "public option"just flew into the mountain side. Pelosi sat there looking like she just swallowed a

  4. What Obama Will Say on Wednesday about health care reform

    K98 replied to herring_RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Obama claims that all of the waste and fraud in existing federal health care programs will pay for the 900 billion dollar price tag of his proposed health care reforms. Hmmmm... waste and fraud in a...

  5. Nonprofits skipping payments, cutting staff because of Pa. budget impasse

    K98 replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    We don't need a full-time legislature in Pennsylvania. If these yo-yo's spent less time in Harrisburg, the state would run a whole lot smoother. That goes double for our "bloated" gangster-thug...

  7. What Obama Will Say on Wednesday about health care reform

    K98 replied to herring_RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    He is nothing more than an empty suit. His ego is driving this whole mess, and whatever speech he reads to congress will not change the way most (250 million) people feel about his healthcare...

  9. Paying the Price: How Health Insurance Premiums Are Eating Up Middle-Class Incomes

    K98 replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I have Crohn's disease. I've had it since 1970. I've required lots of hospitalizations over the years, and had one major surgery. My insurance company never gave me a problem. Never dropped me. Always...

  10. Paying the Price: How Health Insurance Premiums Are Eating Up Middle-Class Incomes

    K98 replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Actually, with all of the horse manure flying around, I did some checking. Yes, employer-paid premiums did rise, by a whopping 26.83 on my BC/BS plan since 2005. Rises in my state, local, and federal...

  11. Paying the Price: How Health Insurance Premiums Are Eating Up Middle-Class Incomes

    K98 replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    What about those of us who have affordable plans through our employers? My costs have not risen for the last four years. My taxes have. The price of postage has. Legislative salaries have. We are...

  14. H.R.3200 - America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009

    K98 replied to StatBlues's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Seems to me that most of the hate is being spouted by the opposition. I guess the "puppets" should ignore the constitution and the government's attempted nationalization of one industry after

  22. How do Unions save your nursing job?

    K98 replied to Emma123's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I hope you are right. I attended a town hall near my home and saw several groups of folks with SEIU 1199P t-shirts on (my local), and didn't recognize any of them. I wondered out loud if any of them...

  24. Fighting Lies with Lies

    K98 replied to oramar's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Thanks Oramar, I just wasted 60 seconds of my life reading that tripe. I should have closed the window when I saw it was authored by Sally Kalson. She an idiot, and part of the reason the PG is fading...

  25. The future of Obamacare

    K98 replied to CRNA2007's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    The USA isn't on the brink of bankruptcy, it IS bankrupt. I will not argue that health care needs to be improved, it does. However, nobody has shown any way of paying for improvement, short of jamming...
