    - But, someone in that state wouldn't be able to eat or drink - you'd have to hope that someone close to them would know to, say, rub maple syrup under - kelly Sep 12, 18:29 2
      - sugar water enema -- nm - dogbert Sep 12, 18:32 1

  - a stab wound is emergent. the follow up wound check would not be -- nm - dogbert Sep 12, 18:15 4
    - For that I'd expect them to be directed to urgent care. -- nm - Ender Sep 12, 18:45 1
      - the people who actually abuse the system don't follow up as they are directed to. a wound check also isn't emergent or urgent, but the abusers will - dogbert Sep 12, 18:59

        I think the end result will just mean the hospitals get screwed. Because people will still go to ERs and then not pay. You can't turn people away. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Sep 12, 18:26 1
        
        and eventually they will shut down their emergency rooms because it looses too much money and people with emergencys are screwed -- nm - dogbert Sep 12, 18:28

Jon Huntsman apparently made a Kurt Cobain reference at tonight's Tea Party debate - Brian Sep 12, 17:51 6
