    key take away here…keep copies of your signed performance evaluations. If they produce different documents with signatures, there are criminal forgery and fraud implications.

    Another key take away, bring a tape recorder to work and turn it on. In NJ,only one person to the conversation needs to consent so the other party doesn’t need to know that a recording is being made.

    Not to defend Brooks (who pttery much typifies the beltway hippie-punching cocktail party elite) but when looked at as a percentage our costs aren’t rising any faster than average for the developed world. So his idea of using market forces to control costs can’t just be dismissed out of hand medical treatment is getting more expensive in France, the UK, etc, as well as the US. Our problem which he ignores is that many more of our healthcare dollars go into the profits of entities that have nothing to do with directly providing medical care. Thus our costs are higher and remain proportionately higher.Now, it’s silly to assume that patients are equipped to generally make treatment decisions alone, though Republicans seem to think they are chiefly to blame for rising costs (as always with them, the victim must be blamed). But if we eliminated some of the perverse incentives (e.g. profit from unnecessary treatments, referral arrangements that in other contexts would be kickbacks, other conflicts of interest, price-fixing, marketing practices that bypass physicians, etc) via appropriate regulation, perhaps market forces would actually help to keep costs down.It is utterly against Republican dogma to acknowledge that regulated markets can lead to better outcomes than unregulated ones. But for Brooks’ idea to have even a ghost of a chance of working, centrally-controlled policies are essential. And, anathema though it may be to him and his beltway pals, profits have got to get smaller, and some of the parasites on the system removed altogether.

    I retired from 14 years of working at Los Angeles County Tuberculosis Department where I have an open workers comp case still standing. I am in search of an attorney who can assist me in filing a civil law suit to my co workers, TB Control, HR (Leave Management and Return To Work) and their constituents. My rights for retirement with disability, and workers comp have been placed in a dead lock due to the falty manipulated paper work of my initial Industrial Injury being changed as well as the QMEs and work restrictions all altered and I have plane evidence for these transactions. The last tme I work physically was May 2009, but the guilty papers have traveled to my retirement agency July 20012 affecting their decisions. I need an attorney to assist me in the statute of limitation being waived to assist this disability.
