You know, that brings up something interesting the DUmmies haven't discussed. Under the ideal version of
O-care, the O-docs will just be another class of low-salary government workers, lumpenproles no different from the DUmmies.
DUmmies just love bringing better people down to their level. Anyway, with O-docs having no more incentive to
excel than a license plate clerk, you have to believe there will be more errors made than now. After all, medical doctors,
in a system based on freedom and accomplishment, are among the elites of society with tons of incentive to protect that
position.
So now you will have all these $20/hr O-docs clocking in at huge government-run O-clinics, jammed with thousands of the sick
and dying, plus lazy DUmmies, normal people, Mexicans, and anyone else who wants to get a free checkup. If an O-doc cuts off
the wrong appendage, or leaves a socket wrench in your belly, what's the worst that can happen? He loses a run-of-the-mill
job? No lawsuits, no big payday for the DUmmies, no 40% cut for the Silky Pony. The O-doc would have nothing you could sue for
anyway. Not that he'd care.
A basic tenet of the DUmp is that every misfortune should be compensated by suing someone. Next to organized crim...er, I
mean labor, the most important contributors to liberal democrats are the trial lawyers. It seems to me that cherished democrat
system is threatened by O-care. I suppose there could be legislation, after the Kenyan finishes increasing our vacation time, to
allow the good people down at the O-care office to print up more O-bucks to pay off the DUmmies and the trial lawyers.
Anyway, it's an issue the DUmmies haven't discussed, and they should.
