  1. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    realmaninuniform replied to Asystole RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I've seen alot of posts on here regarding "access" to healthcare. I don't feel that "access" is as big of a problem as some would lead you to believe, especially those who support the ACA. As I've...

  2. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    realmaninuniform replied to Asystole RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    And suddenly I remembered my Charlemagne... "Let my armies be the rocks and the trees, and the birds in the sky." 37 Degrees - You make no intelligible points whatsoever. I will refrain from...

    "According to your religion, unregulated enterprise will always do the best things for the citizenry-what's best for GM is best for the country. Their fiduciary responsibility, as private...

  4. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    "Do you deny saying that? What percentage of the uninsured do you think are the working poor, who can't qualify for Medicaid? As soon as you have a McJob, you're on your own." First of all, no. I do...

  5. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    realmaninuniform replied to Asystole RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    This is to 37 degrees - No it is not irrelevant, whether you are or in your case NOT a nurse. This is a site and a thread for NURSES. You are clearly not one. Did anyone else just hear that? It was...

  6. RN's forced to do CNA work

    realmaninuniform replied to rnckr's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Ok, without passing judgement I will say this: No, it is not uncommon for facilities to "force" nurses to do CNA work. With that said, given this opportunity you are a SUPER CNA. You can do FAR more...

  7. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    realmaninuniform replied to Asystole RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    And now I'm prejudice AND a bigot. Yet I'm the one hurling insults and relying on "abstract opinions and ideas." Wow. Never once did I "cite" Ayn Rand, rather I listed her in a reading list you...

  8. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    realmaninuniform replied to Asystole RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    And you can cite all the *supposed* statistics you want from these foreign countries on infant mortality rate, cost per capita, etc. etc. The examples you've provided are laughable at best. I work...

  9. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    realmaninuniform replied to Asystole RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Pretty sure I paraphrased an entire essay written by a Nobel Prize winning Economist... If that's not citing a source I don't know what is. You have yet to cite anything at all. As for the ACA, no, I...

  10. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    realmaninuniform replied to Asystole RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    And yes you did say the US has "free market health care". In addition to your again circular reasoning of " The unregulated market has widely been shown to be a disaster. Do I need to list examples?"...

  11. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    realmaninuniform replied to Asystole RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Are you even a nurse? You seem more like a paid Obamabot than anything. I'm a numerous award winning nurse, and accomplished scholar in multiple fields of study. What are you other than a blind...

  12. RN's forced to do CNA work

    realmaninuniform replied to rnckr's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Where I work, the nurses jump at the opportunity to work as an aide! After running charge tomorrow, I will fill in as an STNA for 4 hours on another floor. I am a newer nurse, about 6 months on the...

  13. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    realmaninuniform replied to Asystole RN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Lot's of good discussion on this thread with great points being made on both sides of the argument. With that said, I'd like to chime in my own two cents. First, I don't believe health care is a...
