  • Their whole existence are a direct result of their fellow man, if only the rich lived today they would have to live in a medieval world, no more workers no one there to keep the wheels turning everything would grind to a halt

    no nuclear power no nothing,, just the million at the top schlepping them-self trough a farmers existence, so sure, let them inherit the earth, they have earned what is left.

    Christians? they have made survival of the fittest to a way of life.

  • "Why in the world should the rich pay more?" I hope you don`t call yourself a Christian. That`s all.

  • He is a board member of Davita, a nationwide network of Dialysis Center with an equity interest. At the same time, he remains the CEO of UNC Healthcare with wide ranging influence over physicians and residents who can be persuaded to refer patients toward Davita. Stark law attempted to eliminate this conflict of interest but the North Carolina Board of Governors and UNC Chancellor have chosen to ignore this appearance of impropriety.

  • please tell me when is the last time this ass saw a patient?? I have been a FP for 20 years, only profession that makes less money, and this ass wants more SACRIFICE... I will bet he makes MORE THAN $200,000/year and i see more patients in a WEEK than he sees in a year, FUCK HIM

  • Sick man: "Argh.....help me.....Im dying....." Doctor: Oh sorry, you can't afford it, and you don't have any employee benefits, but I hope you get better. Bye"

  • Dr.Roper must be a socialist like Obama. I would have to ask why in the world should the rich pay more? How is that fair? Obama needs to tell not ask... the health insurance companies, and health care providers to stop being so selfish.

    But sit the journalists down first??? This guys makes little to no sense.
