To all those that oppose universal health care I offer the universal question: Why is it that we can AFFORD billions, nearing trillions now, of dollars for war in Iraq and Afganhinstan but not one dime for health care for ALL of our own citizens? We are fighting wars in countries we we are despised, hated and not wanted...WHY DO WE INSIST ON STAYING WHEN THEY DO LITTLE TO FIGHT THEIR OWN WARS OR RECONCILE DIFFERENCES?

Bread and Circuses! Lots of hoopla about the UNLV basketball team participating in the NCAA tournament...big deal! We raise athletes to the level of godlike heroes and praise their athleticism...but how many will ever graduate from the university? How many can complete a sentence without using '.. you know,man?"

We worry about the outcomes of a silly child's game while the rest of the world plots our downfall and destruction...it is a planned diversion to focus public attention away from the Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the declining dollar value and an impending depression and collapse of the American economy.

As a nation we are in decline as a world economic and military power...we are going by way of the Great Roman Empire...decay and destruction from within while our enemies wait to pounce on us...WAKE UP AMERICA...basketball is nothing more than a silly diversion...a waste of valuable economic resources while our citizens go without food, health insurance and other necessities of life.

Governor Jim Gibbons is not overly concerned about the health risks of those who have had endoscopy exams at the local health clinics using unsafe practices. Of course, he is not concerned, he didn't go through the procedure...he could care less about the people. If he needs the procedure done he will probably go to California or maybe Wahsington,DC to Bethesda since he still has his benefits as a US legilstor. Health benefits he continually voted to keep US citizens from acquiring...remember that on Election Day.

Go to a Quest lab for a blood test and you are at the mercy of lay back, disinterested clerical, lazy help who are in no hurry to see you and your paper work.

I waited for 90 minutes and the clerk did not yet call me to check on the paperwork. I left after 90 minutes...I had to wait in line in the army, I don't have to now...I am 70 years old and I will not tolerate this incompetence if I never take the tests.

The office was crowded to standing room only with some outside in the hallway; you would think with that many people waiting for blood tests, they would have the brains to hire a few more receptionist clerks to process the paper work faster. But they have a captive audience and don't need to hurry. They are assured of the business whether they get to you today, tomorrow or next June.

Quest Labs,in the words of the younger generation today, "Sucks big time and makes big bucks!"

40,000 people potentially infected with serious diseases by careless medical clinics raises hopes of attorneys for winfall profits. They taut their wares on TV promosing financial rewards for damages, but it is only a promise.

A 80 year old friend of mine died of lung cancer from asbsestos after waiting 10 years for his financial reward fo damages during his contact with asbestos in ship yards.

For ten years he was jockied around, promised this and that, filed numerous papers over and over again.Delay after delay postponed the case for 10 years. Despite his excellent record keeping in the final analysis he was told he did not have sufficient grounds to continue the law suite. After 10 years of promises he got not one dollar...he died from lung cancer directly caused by asbestos exposure. the promise of local attorneys is no different and the result will be many years away if any.

Who will profit? probably only the attorneys who always make sure they get their cut of the cake first...Suckers beware who you choose as an attorney.
