Principal, sheriff’s deputy sued after arresting student having seizure

Posted on by

“A vice principal at an Upper Kanawha Valley high school and a sheriff’s deputy assigned to it are accused of falsely imprisoning and arresting a special education student.  Andrew Johnson, vice principal at Riverside High School, and Cpl. Richard Lane are named as co-defendants in civil rights suit filed by Betsy Frame. In her suit, filed Sept. 10 in Kanawha Circuit Court, Frame, 41 and a Belle resident, alleges Johnson and Lane illegally detained and arrested her daughter nearly two years ago when they mistook her reaction to waking up from a seizure-induced nap as an act of aggression.”

Lawsuit: Police beat Clayton man after ignoring plea for medical help

Posted on by

“A Clayton man, who was arrested by Deptford Police in 2011 and held at the Gloucester County jail, is suing the municipal police department, the county and corrections department in federal court, claiming he was not resisting arrest, but instead having a seizure.  Taharqu Dean filed a lawsuit last month in federal court claiming civil rights violations and slamming local law enforcement for not recognizing a medical emergency through a failure to train officers.  In the lawsuit Dean claims to have informed police of his condition — epilepsy, a seizure disorder — and requested medical attention.  The case against him was dismissed last year.”

ObamaCare Is Just a Stepping Stone to Nationalized Health Care

Posted on by

“Many people roll their eyes at ‘those idiots in Washington!’ as if these obvious outcomes are somehow a surprise. No, the people in Washington have trained economists on their staffs. They understand incentives, even though their rhetoric suggests that they don’t. Over the coming years, as the delivery of US healthcare suffers and citizens become justifiably outraged, they will be led to demand greater and greater government involvement to thwart the ‘greedy’ insurance companies and ‘overpriced’ hospitals. This is part of the plan, as some glib proponents of ObamaCare have let slip.”

Home Depot Sending 20,000 Part-Timers to Health Exchanges

Posted on by

“Home Depot Inc. (HD), the world’s largest home improvement retailer, plans to end medical coverage for about 20,000 part-time employees and direct them to government-sponsored exchanges scheduled to open next month as companies revamp benefits to fit the U.S. Affordable Care Act.  Employees with fewer than 30 hours a week will no longer be offered limited liability medical coverage, Stephen Holmes, a spokesman, said today by telephone. About 5 percent of Atlanta-based Home Depot’s 340,000 employees are enrolled in that plan.  United Parcel Service Inc. (UPS), Trader Joe’s Co. and other employers have been cutting benefits ahead of next month’s roll-out.”

NHS watchdog: Nurses in tears as ‘horrendous’ understaffing hits patients

Posted on by

“Nurses were reduced to tears by their workload at a Nottinghamshire hospital where understaffing contributed to patients being left hungry and dehydrated, the NHS watchdog has reported.  Their report came as new figures revealed that 5,500 nursing posts have now been cut since the Coalition came into office, increasing pressure on the health secretary Jeremy Hunt to act on repeated warnings over under-staffing. Frontline staff at Kings Mill Hospital, part of the Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, told CQC inspectors that they were concerned low numbers of nurses and poor senior doctor cover were harming patient safety.”

Cops pepper-sprayed and arrested man as his teen daughter died

Posted on by

“A Missouri man insists he did nothing to deserve being pepper-sprayed and arrested the night his teenage daughter shot herself.  Kevin Russell, of Joplin, said he won’t accept an offer to plead guilty to assault because he doesn’t want to admit he did anything wrong when he screamed at emergency crews tending to his 16-year-old daughter, Brooke.  Russell and his son, 19-year-old Brant, found the girl unconscious from a single gunshot wound to the head in a park near their home, and they loaded her into their car and met an ambulance at the police department. ”

Obamacare’s ‘Cool Calculator: Work Disincentives Like Never Before

Posted on by

“Look at what happens once a single person who is 50 or older hits annual earnings of $45,961. At that point, what remains of those wonderful “tax credits” goes up in smoke. For a 50 year-old single person, dollar number 45,961 causes their annual exchange premium (i.e., ‘tax’) to increase from $4,366 to $5,390. That’s because what Kaiser calls Obamacare’s ‘government tax credit subsidy’ (they’re also having a hard time with the language) goes from $1,024 to zero. For a 64 year old, a ‘tax credit subsidy’ of $4,688 gets zeroed out. The marginal tax rate on dollar number 45,961 for that person is a whopping 468,800%.”

Obamacare hides switch of subsidies from young to old, says study

Posted on by

“A new analysis of Obamacare prices says the much-touted taxpayer subsidies for young people are smaller than promised.  The missing subsidies will jack up costs for young, healthy people who are single and childless, which may deter many from joining the government-run network. This, in turn, would likely boost Obamacare’s costs to all taxpayers.  The new data also shows that officials are choosing to steer the promised subsidies to older people, despite their relatively fewer expenses for children, student loans, careers and housing.”

One man’s ObamaCare nightmare

Posted on by

“Andy and Amy Mangione of Louisville, Ky. and their two boys are just the kind of people who should be helped by ObamaCare. But they recently got a nasty surprise in the mail. Insurance for the Mangiones and their two boys,which they bought on the individual market, was going to almost triple in 2014 — from $333 a month to $965.  The insurance carrier made it clear the increase was in order to be compliant with the new health care law.  The President’s new law, the Affordable Care Act, for the Mangiones will be anything but affordable because the law adds a new tax on every insurance policy and requires a list of additional benefits the Mangiones didn’t want to pay for.”

ObamaCare’s Bad Surprises Begin on October 1.

Posted on by

portallogo3

“You must have a plan by January 1, or else pay a tax to the government: 1% of your 2013 income, or $95, whichever is more. This tax will rise every year.  There is a calculator to show what coverage will cost you. It shows if you are eligible for tax credits. People with low incomes will not qualify for tax credits. But they will have to pay the extra premiums. This is called ‘helping the poor.’  I’m on Medicare. You pay my premiums ($12,000 a year). My wife has Christian Health Care Ministries. She pays $1,000 a year.
What about you? What about your children? They lose your coverage at age 26. Young people lose the subsidies at lower income than had been originally promoted.”
