[quote=jonnycsd]The OT founda great video. I recently saw this one and think it does an even better job of laying out the pitfalls of a nationalized health system . . .

Stossel has been on the GOP payroll for years.

30% of all insurance premiums go to overhead, medicare spends 2%.

And how is a public option going to stifle innovation? This isn’t a bill about funding research — it is a bill about paying for medical care. The majority of research happens in universities, many of which are public. When’s the last time you heard of a corporation coming up with a breakthrough in something other than a drug to make your weiner hard? [/quote]

[quote=scaredycat]so what does it all mean? does this mean prices have to remain stable no matter what?[/quote]

I’d say it means the Feds now dominate mortgages which in many
respects means they control price and supply. if they don’t make
mortgages available prices fall. if they increase rules, prices fall.
if they release inventory prices fall.

On the other hand the feds have a lot more hang time then a bank
so they can withhold inventory, print mortgages and choose prices.

so far people are having a hard time documenting to meet FHA standards.

I’d be curious to know how many people wanting to picket BP
were quite happy to have Bush invade Iraq to steal their oil?
