You are in denial. The corruption is immense, most people on welfare also make money from medicare/medicaid, and if they don't use all of their food-stamps they sell them. It is the culture of welfare. They can't get a job because they either don't want to or they want to but they are scared of loosing their welfare.

There needs to be some regulation to this, having a person make 2K a month in welfare is just simply not fair, the gov't should just allow welfare for 6 months or less (for example) and after that you're on your own, get a job. People is lazy, not saying that every person in the world is, but if you look on their way to see life, making 2k/month for 12 months is 24k/year, many families live with that, they do random jobs here and there to get a few extra bucks and bam you have it, people that is happy with that and they don't expect more and as long as they gov't allows this they will keep abusing the system, so the problem is not health care, is making the system to stop helping the people that is abusing it, change the rules of the game.

Even there's not trustworthy evidence outside, this is like a secret that everyone knows, that also needs to be regulated, you can add as many controls and people will always find a way to find new ways You can't leave capitalism or socialism/communism without regulations, this is a good example of what happens if you let it free, people trying to buy booze with food stamps for example. So the point, as far as I understand is not free health care, though is not free even with the changes they are making, it's just more affordable, the main reason and I agree with him, is having lazy people abusing the system, they need to be regulated.

I'm talking about medicare/medicaid fraud, where a person goes to a single doctor, who prescribes narcotics, and then that person goes to the pharmacy to pick up the drugs, afterward that person sells the drugs on the street in a matter of hours and makes a lot of money.

Yes, and that is the problem. You are talking about Medicare and Medicaid, but contending the new system will be the same. I'm contending that it is possible that the new system can stop such abuses.

Ah, here I was figuring they may be the proper way to treat what ever condition it is that you have. Pretty much every drug classified as a narcotic has some effective use as a medical treatment. Well, good luck finding a corrupt doctor willing to risk his career for the pittance you could throw in his direction, you're no Rush Limbaugh. But I can assure you, you're not getting it free. If you'd like to see an actual explaination of what they've passed I could show you, I can also show you how much you're going to have to pay in health coverage in the next couple years if the attn. general's suit gets tossed.

I know of people who go to a special doc for prescriptions, paid for by medicare/medicaid, and then they pick up the narcotics at the local pharmacy (for free of course), and then they sell the pills on the street. It is actually very common.

You mean this was happening BEFORE the new health care bill ? So the new bill is irrelevant then, and what's relevant is the lack of regulation in America, the result of rampant capitalism ?

And he is pointing out that you started by saying you could do this now, as a result of the new bill, but now you're saying that you know people who have been doing it all along. Ergo, the new bill has changed nothing in that regard, and your original post connected two things that are unrelated.

Allowed people to have a vote on matters they do not understand, for people they wouldn't have in their homes, for a period set in stone, and without a veto if they disagree on policy not declared in a manifesto. Almost the same as the UK, and look what we got :(

You cant regulate that fraud away. It is a fundamental flaw of the socialist system, it is fraudulent to begin with. Anyone with a food-stamp card can go buy groceries for a friend and sell them to him for half the price of the groceries. With the drugs, just go to a doctor, and then a pharmacy.

One of the benefits of government run insurance is that it gives the government a vested interest in controlling fraud and also in controlling profiteering of drug companies, etc. Under the current system it's no wonder they shrug and let them charge whatever they like.

You're partially right - any system of welfare needs to either live with some abuse, or find that it locks out some people it's designed to help. You just can't help it. However, at least part of the problem is that if welfare really is $24k a year, that's twice what someone can earn on minimum wage. I'd hate to try to live on $24k, but I'd hate to try to live on $12k more. So, odds are that people working minimum wage are eligible for some form of welfare, which means that welfare is really a system to help big companies ( i.e. to promote capitalism ), not to help the people struggling to survive on half an average wage.

It's probably an indication of the sort of area you live in that you claim all the doctors where you live are corrupt. However, again, they are corrupt under the current system, so the new health bill can't make that worse.

C Socialist system where people have medication covered so as not to be stupidly expensive. D A -> B -> C; This is what is above. A = D; This is what you are seeing. You know, fraud is going to happen no matter what. In the current system the people payign for it are the same people. We pay for insurance, fraud happens, they charge more because they can justify it. So it isn't like we aren't already paying for it. Currently there are plenty of laws against all this, I don't see how the government getting people to lower their prices so everyone can afford the drugs they need is going to change this.

You're right, you can't regulate the fraud, but you can regulate the system to stop the fraud, I don't see it as a flaw of a socialist system, as in socialism/communism this will be controlled by the gov't in every single way possible, you won't be able to get any drugs/medicines without consent of it and if you do, there will be one moment when the gov't will investigate what is happening, but corruption comes in many ways, the point of all this is to find ways to stop it.

Yep, that's right, so the thing is how can I regulate people doing this. answers to fix it can come in many ways, reduce the amount of stamps they get, reduce the time they receive them, I don't know, but then comes the other side of the problem, how do you know that they're actually doing it, like I said, this is a secret everyone knows. There has been rules the stamps have these days to reduce the fraud, but still needs to be improved, everything has space for improvement.

I see that, you see that, I'm trying to get Captain See Sharp's explanation of why he doesn't. I'd also like his reasoning that the a new system shouldn't be adopted because the current system is broken, that seems flawed to me.

Now that healthcare takeover has passed. I will be confiscating your property by government proxy. I think I will run up to the local corrupt doc right now and get some narcotics. I have a right to eat, so I'm going to take even more from you so I can eat like a king on your dime. Why work when I can get all this free stuff. If you are a working man, then you will get less of everything (except for government control). Me and tens of millions of others are going to feast on you like a 10 pound tick on a dog, you will suffer greatly.
