ElrondHubbard posted:The American healthcare system is long overdue for an overhaul in billing, as it's currently structured in a spectacularly inefficient and damaging way. Oh but we have had a complete overhaul in billing very recently, it has just been driven largely by providers. One of the sales points used by the companies selling electronic medical record software is that it would automate billing so that you could charge for every little thing. It would remind you to do every single billable item and automatically include everything in the bill.

Hence why there's some lukewarm discussion of a switch to fee-for-care as opposed to the current fee-for-service model, which has perverse incentives and significantly worse outcomes.

The GOP has long lusted for a candidate like Trump. The proto fascist, nakedly oligarchal, bullying, constant red meat, Putin lite styling of Trump has always been what they've wanted. For two elections now they think they've lost for being too soft, too moderate, too middle of the road. They want a CPAC panelist, a conservative Facebook meme page given human form, policy be damned. The meaner he gets, the more bullying he gets, the more people will see him as "honest" and "speaking from his heart," totally the Christie game plan, only properly executed. Trump's got a cult of personality around him that will be hard to pierce and the smarter candidates will take shots at him to further establish themselves and bring him down, leading to an unprecedented mudslinging bloodbath. If any of these dopes are smart at all they'll bring up Trump's past campaigns, ran along much more liberal lines. The full debate list gets revealed the 4th. I really hope Christie is on it. This latest trend of having to say the absolute most outrageous red meat comments possible to even get noticed in a historically crowded field of 17 candidates seems like it can only work to undermine whichever candidate comes forward as the eventual nominee. I literally cannot wait for Thursday.

Now we know why so many astronauts are from Ohio. Their shame drives them into exile from the planet itself. e: Grant and Sherman were both born in Ohio, so I guess that mitigates it slightly. FAUXTON fucked around with this message at 05:41 on Aug 3, 2015 |

PA's solo claim to fame is Buchanan, the one mostly remembered for possibly being gay. I am wondering if there's enough time to get a Sheep! game going, for the debate. I was trying to think up questions, but I'm not sure 3-4 days is enough to get participants. (Also, I've never done one before, so I'd probably screw it up anyway.)

The Associated Press is having a hard time finding the $102 million Trump claims he's given to charity over the past 5 years. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/review-finds-trumps-charity-donations-modest/ quote:WASHINGTON — Donald Trump, widely believed to the be the wealthiest American ever to run for president, is nowhere among the ranks of the country’s most generous citizens, according to an Associated Press review of his financial records and other government filings. It's starting to look like, as in real estate, Trump's idea of giving to charity is "giving other people's money with my name on it."

Also, Mark Everson has filed an FEC complaint against Fox News over his exclusion from the debates now that the threshold for participation in the runners-up debate has been lowered from 1% in the polls to "appearing in the polls". It does seem unfair to candidates that it's up to the polling companies who is considered a candidate, but without that filter there would be over 150 candidates in the Republican primary debates.

The FEC rules that all candidates must be admitted entry, the debate format is changed to a no holds barred cage fight deathmatch. Audience attendees are chosen from a list of the wealthiest donors, who can throw weapons to the arena floor at a hefty fee to support their preferred candidates.

The Koch brothers have spent a total of around $27 Million on GOP candidates, PACs, etc., or about 12% of what the SEIU has spent on Democrats. In fact, the Top 4 GOP donors (#7 Las Vegas Sand, #14 Perry Homes, #17 Contran Corp., and #24 Adelson Drug Clinic) COMBINED have not spent as much as the SEIU on candidates, parties, PACs, and 527s. https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/list.php?cycle=ALL It's funny how the left makes a huge deal out of this when they are by far and away the massive leader in bought-and-paid for politicians and backing from big money interests. The Koch's are scrub-tier players when it comes to buying politicians and elections.
