TGIF Morning thoughts

I nave done some research, contacted some whose opinion I value, and the general consensus of opinion seemed to be that the magnitude of the Obamacare niche on the internet, should have been tested for as much as five years before placing it out there for the public. I am not sure when, or even if, such an enormous internet program has gone public.

Some feel it may never be corrected and usable in that it is difficult to repair while it is operation. One compared it to building a large ship, putting it into operation, and trying to repair many hings while it is underway. He concluded that, "Even ships take an extended underway "shakedown" before being put into commission. An Idahoan commented that "you plug up one hole and another one occurs."

We had the expertise available to avoid this, our "Misplaced arrogant" president apparently opted to not tap that valuable resource in his haste to offer this "Opportunity for Golden Health" to his followers, his memorial made of "Band aids" to future generations.

I had occasion last evening to chat briefly with an outstanding your Doctor. One of the nicest I have met in many years, a 4.00 point Bedside Manner. He "worked" for out local hospital and was happy with that. He had no desire to have his own private practice. What a great shame and a great loss to what could be. Going to see this more and more, I think the "complications" of such a practice are becoming insurmountable. My Dad, the Doctor, when in Private Practice was a Doctor, Minister, Lawyer, Adviser and Friend to his patients. He decided to make a change and go in to OBGYN and left his practice. The night he saw his last patient, came through the door that separated our home and office, was the first time I saw him cry.

I imagine that physicians cry today, when their real estate "deals" fall through, when they get caught double billing or billing with no services rendered, or they get caught in some "malpractice" lawsuit. Such as recently, the one that got caught, performing unnecessary operations where appliances were used, from a company that he had a great deal of stock in.

I hope all have a nice weekend. Cold in Ohio, but a warm-up next week is expected, no Indian Summer yet.
