I gave my opinion, ignore it. I got the message that some consider my view on this subject a joke. Understand that I am a parent, I am posting here, but perhaps more than you know share my concerns and you will never hear from them. But, if you listen, perhaps the concerns could be addressed and PP and everyone else going go on with a satisfactory solution. But, the assumption that it is just a joke is going to lead to no PP public funding, yes it is that serious to some of us.

In my initial post on this subject, I said I wanted to see the data to understand if there was a net benefit or a net cost to society. I also, suggested that if public funding continue perhaps some simple modification to how they administer care is in order. Not hardly an extreme position, but we already concluded that most here see my concerns as a joke, so is your post just to further mock my concerns?

And you can sue any doctor for malpractice on the behalf of your child anywhere, at any time. Why would a PP doctor be any different?
The point is that PP can go out of business because of an end to public funding or they can go out of business because they get sued out of business. I would think people with a real concern for PP would not want either to happen. And wouldn't it be rather simple to make some modifications to materially reduce the risk of PP being sued out of existence. Perhaps, based on my concerns responsible people would want to sit down and look at what is being done and make it better for everyone. This attitude - that it is just a joke or that conservatives just hate poor people thing - is not going to benefit anyone.
