    Just because something is free to a looter it is not a right. When all the looting is done, where will they go? Free ER visits are government delegated welfare at the expense of private...

    Ion replied to mark hamel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I would call the healthcare people are receiving and not paying for a privilege and welfare. Show me the law where it is a right. You can't, because healthcare is not a right. Enough looters show...

    Ion replied to mark hamel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    If we are going to bring foreign nurses here as equals, then they should be treated (and paid) as equals. My perception is that instead of working to improve our existing problems (pay and staffing)...

    Ion replied to mark hamel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    We may "need" a state union soon. The administrations and politicians are spreading the myth of a nursing shortage. The "myth" is used to justify short staffing and import large quantities of...
