Not much nyk - finally got my GF moved in to her new place, xmas and new year are but a fading memory, and I at last have some free time to devote to the cause.

The cause of course is FCP and making it the dominant power that it deserves to be.

RECRUIT says I - we need more members for the battles that lie ahead.

Fresh meat for the grinder.

And new bar staff of course.

I'm in something of a philosophical ranting kind of mood, so I wrote a new thread here


That'll probably do me on that front for a couiple of months until I need to vent my spleen again

I take it you're busy at work again

reply to post by budski




Of course I am!

Honestly though it has been a hectic week here, so I may be a bit sparse today.

i completely second your thoughts from the otehre site of the ocean.
although we have some doctor.s who after being at standard medical school got some additional qualifications and treat you more according natural medicine or even with homoeopathics, it happend that the very doctor.s advice you to take out a functional organ (uterus) because the patient got heavy menstruation now and then, which they thought was nothing to worry about but lets cut the problem out.

it is a conspiracy heike, this way we are so much easier to be controlled.

i have to stop myself otehrwise i will start a rant about the medical system, higher insurance gees and budgeting of doctor.s output.

dingbat and heike please do that debate.
i just would love you two in it!

But I don't think that there is an organized conspiracy reaching throughout the health care field to keep us alive but sick

i don.t know anything about the USA, but here in germany, some people don.t get the treatment they need. it is not that the very treatment is so expensive - like massages for pain in the back - the treatment just doesn.t fit into the budget, or it is at the end of the quartet so no more money left … and health insureance cost more every year and to my information most of the money is spent in administration.

*ok orange has to calm down *

just do me the favor and debate this topic heike and dingbat!

hi nyk budski and sky!

nice to see you guys

Just wanted to ask, how much revenue did the FCP merchandise fetch so far?

Man it is crazy up in this town today.

Did you see all the people?

The energy in the air is palpable and I'm a mile away from the National Mall.

I know nyk you're a conservative but one has to be impressed no matter what, right?

reply to post by schrodingers dog


Sure, but this isn't unexpected so it takes a little bit of the awe away from it. The man has a huge following at the moment, and is also the first black President, so of course the turnout will be nothing less than amazing.

Today is a happy day, I stand with everyone else in welcoming our new President.

My disagreements with him will resume tomorrow.

Hmm, more like

There is an organized conspiracy in the Health Care Industry (including pharma companies) to keep the public addicted to prescription drugs, expensive treatments, and surgical procedures.

Or even "The Health Care Industry is far more concerned about profits than people." Because, of course, money and greed are at the root of all of it.
?

I know that not all doctors are "in" on it and some doctors may not even really be aware of it - after all the only difference between us and them is medical school, and when they started most of them probably didn't know enough to differentiate between the good information and the "bad." Now, it's too late - it's part of what they "know."

Oh sure, abandon your principles in order to appease the crowd. What, did he offer you a cabinet position or something?
