    Cheney would "probably be dead by now" if not for his federally funded health care

    HM2VikingRN replied to pickledpepperRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I read the article. This is my response: This actually reflects that because wages in the community as a whole are declining that reimbursements are following the wages. In other words falling...

    It really is a federal issue. This shows the danger of counting on the private sector to care for vulnerable

    HM2VikingRN replied to marciella's topic in First Year After Licensure

    There are several threads here about NCLEX study plans. I would do a search using those keywords. Wish you the best of luck. Did you take the HESI? The HESI results can be used to help you identify...

    The word GLOCK

    HM2VikingRN replied to 123student's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I own and use guns. As a liberal I have no desire to see any law abiding gun owner lose their right to bear arms. I am encouraging you to think about what the topic for this particular forum area is....

    Cheney would "probably be dead by now" if not for his federally funded health care

    HM2VikingRN replied to pickledpepperRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    HSA's and HDHP lead to worse results when compared to comprehensive insurance. The Commonwealth fund has numerous slides and articles discussing this very issue. Baptized by Fire's point is dead on...

    The word GLOCK

    HM2VikingRN replied to 123student's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I wouldn't pick a fight over this issue. Review the TOS and I think you will come to an understanding of the groundrules that we all live by while participating on the

    HM2VikingRN replied to pickledpepperRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    you are deliberately missing the very specific point of the pnhp proposal which is: the payroll tax would replace all other employer expenses for employees’ health care. the income tax would take...

    HM2VikingRN replied to pickledpepperRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    That is exactly the point of the PNHP proposal. Administration for health care plans should cost no more than 3-5%. The other 26-29% we pay to the private insurance companies goes to profit and NOT...

    Mandatory Health insurance? Is it a solution to health care?

    Healthcare burden growing

    HM2VikingRN replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Very short sighted post. I think that you have shown your true colors by describing members of the working poor as "Joe Bum." Calling for responsible capitalism is hardly anti-corporate or...

    HM2VikingRN replied to pickledpepperRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    There is such a thing as a political process. I agree with Paul Krugman. Sometimes ideology is the worst reason to do anything. The free market has a lot to contribute undoubtedly. But capitalism is...

    Healthcare burden growing

    My problem with the physicians statement was not that he referenced waiting times rather that his experience with one family member is being used to say the whole system is bad. There is no doubt that...

    Retire by 30, thanks nursing!

    HM2VikingRN replied to ThePrestige's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think complete retirement is feasible or healthy in your 30's. I am not sure that I was completely clear that I don't think it is possible to achieve retirement. Reduced work hours yes but not...

    Retire by 30, thanks nursing!

    HM2VikingRN replied to ThePrestige's topic in General Nursing

    I think you could look at reduced hours by your 40's if you: 1. Paid a house off. 2. Designed a very tight spending plan that you could live on. I don't think complete retirement is feasible by
