That's the living definition of "embarrassment of riches." The commissioners pretty much can't do wrong with that strong of a pool.

Brilliant point by point rebuttal to John Mackey’s op-ed. Smacked down with the facts.

John Mackey, as the CEO and co-founder of Whole Foods, wrote an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal on August 12, 2009 quoting Margaret Thatcher and asserting that Healthcare is NOT a right. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB20001424052970204251404574342170072865070.html

Justice for Leah is a group dedicated to solving the murder case of 15 year-old Leah Freeman. On June 28, 2000 Leah disappeared as she walked home at 9 p.m. from a friend's house along a busy downtown street in Coquille, OR. Deputies found her body Aug. 3, 2000 at the bottom of an overgrown embankment along a gravel ro...ad about 10 miles northeast of Coquille. Police have said little about the investigation, except that Leah died of "homicidal violence," leaving some people in the town of 4,200 wondering whether local law enforcement has enough resources to solve the crime. Anyone with information regarding Leah’s murder is encouraged to contact the Coquille Police Department at (541) 396-2114, or Coos Stop Crime at (541) 267-6666. A $5,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction.Read More

If we can cap med-malpractice, doesn't it stand to reason that we should also cap medical bills? The real problem that the uninsured face is that they don't have the benefit of the pre-negotiated "fair and reasonable rates" that the insurance companies have. If we could assume and expect reasonable medical bills, we ...could budget for our typical medical care and only insure the "big" claims. That's what we do with our cars and homes. That's what we used to do with medical care. Currently doctors and hospitals charge the uninsured whatever they feel like, and unless you are one of the lucky ones who can talk them down to a reasonable amount, you have no choice but to file for bankruptcy. Why do we allow them to tell us malpractice suits are outrageous, but we have no problem allowing them to send outrageous medical bills to the uninsured.Read More
