One of the doctors' concerns is that they will be forced to ration medicine to their patients. According to Dr. David McKalip, a Florida-based neurosurgeon and president of the Association of American Physician and Surgeons, there will be
an eventual mass exodus of doctors out of medicine if Congress passes a health care reform bill that contains a mandatory government insurance option....they will simply start migrating out of medicine.
Dr. McKalip believes that older doctors, in their 50's, will leave early. He said that:
What's coming is a government takeover of medicine....whenever government takes over medicine, they always ration care....They never deny there will be rationing.
It is time to take back medicine for the patients.

Can you imagine the quality of the physicians that would be available if the govt. took over health care. They would be inexperienced, untrained, lazy, no personal pride in their work, etc., you know just like Obama.
The US Government trains the best military in the history of planet earth. While each member of the army, navy air force and marine corps recieves government provided health care and ALL Republicans in the Congress and Senate have health care WE THE PEOPLE can not allow the people withouot health care to get the same INSURANCE that members of congress get. We need to stick with the republican plan that was in place when Bush was in office - 40+ million uninsured year 1, 2, 3, ....8.
Now where's my next tax cut...
