From today's Bangor Daily News, a news story about a small town in Maine turning down a request from a movie director to close a few side streets during filming. This cracked me up:
If the government really wants to get serious about how to handle this so----called fiscal cliff and how to prevent it and how to save and create the trillions of $$$$$ needed to fix the problem the government created in the first place. Heres what they need to do. They need to cut out all the un-neccesary spending on government contracts and pay only what the rest of us can afford (after all aren't we paying for the money that they are wasting), then they need to change how long and how much thay are going to provide free medical, security and outragious pentions on former presidents and their families, don't get me wrong, and congress, I do respect the presidents, (past and present), they need to raise the taxes on the wealthy so that they are paying their fair share like the rest of us, they need to find a way to stop the fraud. They need to put a fraud task force in place for the food stamp fraud, people getting and selling their food stamps for drugs and other things, medical fraud, (medicaid and medicare). There has to be a way that the patients and their families or appointed care giver to be involved with patient care, and the charges for either services,treatments,tests, or medical devises. There are so many Dr's, and other medical providers and assistants , and facilities billing for things that the patients don't even know about.
You know those commercials on TV that you hear say they will handle all the paperwork, they will handle everything to get you approved for a scooter, or other medical assistant devises you may not even need. How many patients ever really see the papers or under-stand it???? They target the elderly, and those with either private insurance,medical, medicaid and medicare. Alot of those people trust thier doctor's with their care, and trust that they are also honest.
