Lou Dobbs, Dr.Phill, local news, anyone who would listen and really, no one would. 


I have sent at least 30 letters, I dont even get responses! 


The world is not ready to hear, I am guessing, just how bad this all is.  Obviouslly HIPAA, but really more importantly, US wise.  We lose our jobs, we lose tax revenue, we lose Social Security, we build more debt by being on unemployment, and more the country goes into even bigger debt because no one is spending money.


It is not just us, look at the car companies.  York (peppermint patties).  Everywhere!!!!!  Big companies are doing it to pad the pockets of the CEOs at the expense of everyone else in the country.  When these big companies take their work overseas, it lowers the pay that the smaller companies can offer. 


It is a HUGE vicious cycle and the only way it will stop is to stop offshoring and this lovely government will never do that because of the trade acts and whatever else.  Therefore, it is pointless.


If we could go on a national strike until all medical records return home, I would definitely do that!

MT Desk clan? More like...

 


...be prepared to do your own searching for the answers. 


MT Desk participants will offer you thinking and researching ideas, but they will not toss you the answers as easily as it is done here or other MT sites.  It is managed very differently than other MT sites and the participants adhere to the "teach them to fish" rule.


MTs, especially those of us that work at home, should be able to be self-reliant in this field and possess decent researching skills. 


As you've all just experienced last week, what happens in the future if both MTStars.com/net just *poof* from web again?  Who will give you the answers, when you are so used to having someone else do the researching for you? 


Surely there's been exchanging of harsh words now and again, but I've seen the same thing happen here on this site and others.  Major difference is, on THIS site, you can't tell who is making the comments, because on this site, you can hide who you are by changing your name for each post you make, whereas on MTDesk, each person has 1 identity for every post they make.  So yes, on MT Desk you WILL see the same folks replying on 'hot' topics as they do not have as much flexibility to name change between posts as is so easily done here.


Clan?  I think not.  I see it as a group of folks helping other MTs hone their researching and thinking skills, helping you to hopefully become a self-reliant MT.


Sorry to hear you had a bad experience with MT Desk.


If you're one of the MTDesk clan then you're ok
