Sue Lowden, a Republican candidate challenging Majority Leader Harry Reid for his Nevada Senate seat is refusing to back down from an earlier suggestion that America consider a medical barter system as an alternative to current health care solutions.
On Monday Lowden took the idea one step further.
“Before we all started having health care, in the olden days, our grandparents, they would bring a chicken to the doctor,” Lowden told a local news station. “They would say I’ll paint your house.”
There’s a health care crisis and the best this clueless politician can offer is to suggest that patients barter with their doctors. The saddest part of all this is that Lowden has a real chance of becoming a United States Senator. Did Scott Brown not lower the collective IQ of the Senate down far enough? And how many more Michele Bachmanns can Congress absorb before it becomes a totally dysfunctional joke?

Oh I know! I was snarkin on this woman’s theory of how to barter with your Dr for health care by offering chickens like the old days, all day yesterday. I see Dr’s quite often. I just can’t see him paying his mortgage with chickens, or getting a free painting of his/her house. Which btw, most people in “old days” raised their own chickens and crops, etc.. (Yet, even in old days there were people that still had to buy flour, sugar, etc..) Now days most of us don’t, can’t. When she said she wasn’t going to back down from this, I could not stop laughing! She has no idea just how out of touch she sounds.
My doc was there on Lowden-care
But said my hen was much too thin.
What else had I that would apply?
No cow, no horse, no bulls, of course.
Only one thing had I to bring:
Pain in my ass cost me my ass.
When I was a kid the doctor actually came to our house and my mother payed down the bill every Saturday by sending him eggs. I don’t think it would work today although 35 years ago I payed for my daughters eye exam and first contact lenses with a pig I butchered for the optometrist.
