Link Blogs Note
Linkblogs links below go offsite. To keep a copy of .Common Sense active, use control+click, control+shift or control+shift+clickThe Above Linkblogs Might Contain "Borrowed" links.
Linkblogs do not substantially contribute traffic to my blog that I can discover. They all go offsite, and are often accessed from my blog. It's possible to access them from the RSS according to my settings. Still, even if I were to get ads clicking on a linkblog from the RSS won't drive more people to my blog than otherwise because they leave my resources. (Note to self, do more posts, less LBs with sources I find). I explain because I sometimes borrow links from people at Twitter, and often forget who put them up. (To fellow Twitterers: If you have a link to your blog, I will point it there, but Twitter, being impermanent, cannot hold your link for people to discover from there. I only 'borrow' them to get news out to as many people as I can who might not have seen the reports and videos found by the smart people I follow at Twitter or find in search rooms.Quick News

$29k For 5 Minutes in ER? WTF? But only if You Don't Have Insurance
A hospital claimed that5 minutes in an ER trying to save a young man's life would have been acceptable to family if the young man had lived. Tying a family to debt slavery is OK when you hold a person's life in your hands.
This shows just how greedy our privatized health care system is!!!
But what is worse is that is only the price that those without insurance pay.
Insurance companies negotiate prices that are much lower for themselves even before taking off the co-pay so that those with the least ability to pay pay the most.
I remember from past decades it used to be that uninsured were given a break.
We need real health care reform now.
