turtlespeed 226 #26 January 24, 2013 QuoteQuoteQuoteQuote Thank you think that politicians are best suited for determining what privacy you just shouldn't have is interesting to me. That's why we elect them, to make laws for us, like HIPPA and ERISA, and FERPA, and ... Indeed! They enacted these laws because physicians, insurance companies, etc., were busily revealing private medical information. And in fact, people STILL violate HIPAA and when they do there is trouble. http://www.informationweek.com/healthcare/security-privacy/ucla-health-system-pays-865000-over-priv/231001236 I am saying that these bars to the release of personal information are EXACTLY what President was discussing. The laws preventing the release of private medical records are a significant barrier to the identification of anyone who has ever been depressed. To do that, the government has to have unfettered access to all personal medical and mental histories. HIPAA is a codification of the right of privacy. Are you willing to overturn Roe v. Wade? . . . If it saves just ONE child. . . Oh wait. . .I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites lawrocket 3 #27 January 24, 2013 QuoteAre you willing to overturn Roe v.
