Hello tom:
I go to the doctor when a part of my body isn't working too well. Whatever I do with that part isn't the doctors (or the governments business)!
I want the doctor to fix it and the government to pay for it, like they do any medicine!
What? They're not going to treat blindness because you can watch porn? What if they think my hand is involved in sexual acts (which it never is).

bottom line . we are creaping towards socialized medicine with all it's so called benefits and disadvantages . One of the disadvantages is rationing and making tough decisions about what type of care gets provided. Get used to it ,and if you support the concept then don't complain. Be thankful they have restricted it to medicine so far .People in other countries are denied operations . Tell me a good reason why a taxpayer has to subsidize a stiffy ?

Hello again, tom:
I suspect your opinion will change, commensurate with the direction of your erection.

my point is that you aint seen nothing yet if you think that is the only care service that will be denied when it is coming out of the public budget. In England they have been denying care for years while in this country it is a relatively new phenomenon ;but it will become more urgent as the baby boomer population ages . Tough choices are going to be made and the least of the concerns will be the sex life of a geezer.

Well, that's true. He can't. I guess I should say I don't really know, as he's never had to dig out of one.
He just freakin' EXPLODES the bag and roars out with all his fury!!!!

Medicare doesn't cover doctor visits for my bad eye site or prescription eye glasses and visits to the dentist either so add those to your PP {penis problems} list of things not covered
