Reply #12: WTF? Jesus H. Christ on rollerblades,

are you SERIOUS about that database? You have GOT to be fucking KIDDING me, right? Just who the hell do those arrogant, egotistical fucks think they are? They're human like all the rest of us and prone to mistakes like all the rest of us.

It's bad enough that they aren't doing a damn thing to help reform the current totally fucked-up system so that the millions who don't have access to care can get it without worrying about losing what little they have or being thrown in jail because they can't pay the fucking bill.

It's bad enough that too many of them refuse to treat those who don't have money no matter how badly they may need it or, if they do, they sue the shit out of them to recover even small bills, money the person often just does not have.

It's bad enough that they couldn't care less about anyone without money and insurance, and that you NEVER hear a peep of outrage from them over the documented 18,000 deaths a year determined to be a direct result of being uninsured and the likely thousands more.

It's bad enough that they're telling people diagnosed with cancer but who don't have insurance or money that it's just tough luck, they'll have to wait until they get some money or insurance.

But to compile such a database while doing NOTHING about those doctors who are responsible for much of the malpractice, indeed even covering up for them, and to blame the patients when it's usually the doctor who's at fault in the first place, is just too fucking much. I never thought doctors could fall even lower on my respect scale, but you better believe that that's now the case.
