Default Obamacare, the dumbing down of health care

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,...0.000000:b0:z5

midwives being paid equal of obgyn, and nurse practitioners the equal of physicians.

"We're just like physicians except for the pay."

Joy. It's starting so soon. Some day, seeing a physician may become a luxury of the rich visiting Costa Rica.

this will eventually lead to the death of medicine as we know it.

Maybe we will have a situation where there is no longer such thing as a family practioner or an internist. Doctors are only specialists.

Thanks AMA for screwing us up the ass yet again.

AMA sold out for deferral of decreases in Medicare. What a bunch of louses.

AMA defeated the first wave of attempts to socialize health care, but now caves in and is complicit with those in charge.

This is really dumb, dumb, dumb. But oh well we have more covered with worse care. Joy for all of us.

Some day, a mark of wealth will be, "I went to my family practitioner today."

"OMG, who are you, Bill Gates?"

"I got to see the assistant student nurse practitioner for my colorectal problems."
