In reply to citizan.

This was not ever mentioned on tv here. We are a bit north and east of SA. And the Express news has shrunken in the last several years. No one reads it anymore. Which means…no one knows this happened! Thjis is just rediculous! Why is the is everyone with their easds in the sand? Why was the article changed? What is wrong with people these days? Stand up! Demand the truth and answers from those you elect into office!

He has to pay his extra staff to process all the insurance claims. Hes paying for all that overhead. It gets quite expensive. Now that he doesnt have that overhead, he can give his patients a great price cut and the rules of the insurance will not comprimise the standard of care for his patients.

I had a hystarectomy 5 weeks ago. If I had insurance the price would have been MORE than $20,000. With insurance I would have paid about $6,000+ per year for premiums. Then I would have to pay a deductable for the doctor, the anasthesio;ogist (sp?), another deductable for the hospital room and nurses, another deductable for the operating room, another deductable for post operative visits. After all is said and done I would have paid OVER $12,000 after deductables and co-pays. And lets not forget the meds…sheesh! But we dont have insurance. The price for all the above with out insurance???? $6,000!!!!
Insurance is a scam and the government wants in on it!!!

Power to the Parents: The Fight for Home-School Rights

May 23, 2013 at 3:19pm

I chose to homeschool this year. It has nothing to do with religion. It has to do with the quality of public education. It sucks! They learn the facts to a test. Thats it. nothing more, nothing less. I want my child to know math, reading, writing, history, science and MORE. As for the whole socialization issue???? My child socializes more now than she did in school. They cant talk in the cafeteria. And they have one recess that is about 20 minutes. We homeschool 2 hours per day 4 days per week. We have covered more material than the public school. We will also be skipping 4th and go to 5th grade material. The schools are crowded. They no longer have the resources or the patience. Gifted-gone. Art-gone. Advanced reading-gone. Gym-on the way out. Music-on the way out. Classes are going from 21 students per teacher to 27 students per teacher. It is pathetic how the tax money is being spent for schools. The more the government tries to fix schools, the educational bar gets lower. Home school your kids. Take a pay cut. throw out the xbox. Turn off the tv. Hell…throw the tv out. Get rid of the cell phone. eek! Educate your children. If not, sit down and help them with their home work Ask them what they think of the subject at hand. teach them what is right. How to think for themselves. What are you afraid of? What are you waiting for? GO!
German Homeschooling Family’s Request for Asylum Denied by the U.S. Government

May 14, 2013 at 2:00pm

The one argumwent they used agasinst this family was ” do parents have the right to educate their children”. I am a home schooler, this judgement concerns me deeply. In schools they are having children dress up in muslim garb, they are teaching the 10 pillars of islam, not the ten commandments, they are not allowed to call them terrorists, they have to call them freedom fighters, theuy are still learning shapes and reading digital clocks in 2nd grade, they are reading kinderbooks in 2nd grade, they tell the kids what to wear, they cant talk in the cafeteria, they get one recess per day, and they demand that yopu medicate your child because they cant handle ALL 30 kids in class. They dont even go to the library anymore, in gym they do yoga instead of running of their energy. And if you question them, they stare at you in disbeleif that you would question them. This law that says that homeschooling is illegal in Germany dates back to Hitler. It was to indocterinate the children. Ever heard of “Hitler Youth”? Why this law has not been stricken from the books in Germany is beyond me. Hopefully the German family will get an appeal and be able to stay.
