AMA Calls for Amending Health Reform Law
They want to get rid of the reduction in physician’s fees. Reminds me of this oldie but goodie:
First they came for the communists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.
As the frogs are in boiling water, they have no one to blame when the Obamacare tsunami hits and destroys medicine as we used to know it. Enjoy the que.
They supported PPACA because they thought they could bargain their way out of having their ox gored. In the end, they still got their ox gored. This cycle occurred repeatedly with the interest groups.
Sorry to see the doctors sell out everyone else and then have no one to come to their defense.
Isn’t the AMA the same as a trade unionist?
The AMA sold out the doctors.
