Trump's new Cabinet - Guesses & Nominations

[LouderVol]

You do know he is a heart surgeon don't you?

and that qualifies him to deal with Medicare/Medicaid?

I very much doubt a heart surgeon is dealing with that paperwork headache all that much.

I'd be hard pressed to find a dumber person than Sunny Hostin. She makes AOC look brilliant.

OK then, who IS 'qualified'?

 

[Septic]

Rick Scott.

That dude knows his way around Medicare.

During his tenure as chief executive, his company (HCA) defrauded Medicare, Medicaid, and other federal programs. The Department of Justice won 14 felony convictions against the company, which was fined $1.7 billion in what was at the time the largest healthcare fraud settlement in U.S. history.

He'd be a good choice.

Yikes

Any different than what's going on with useless government propaganda being taught in public schools today?

You, clearly a product of an educational system that retarded your growth rather than fostered it, ought to sit on the sidelines of educational discussions.

 

[LouderVol]

You're sounding like BB85.

in what way? that I don't like many of the appointments? I have been on that train for more than just with Oz.

 

[McDad]

Yikes

I couldn't tell by the clip whether he was referencing a book which talks about what is happening currently or what he wants to create for the future. He also said it was metaphorical.

Calling them unqualified when it's pretty much the norm for cabinet picks to have little experience in the fields their agencies are supposed to regulate/oversee.

I dislike several of his picks also because they don't impress me as being hatchet men, types that intend to eliminate their own post.

I'm tired of the over use of the word 'unqualified'. It is becoming as meaningless as Nazi or racist.

Don't you know that qualified means being able to be a man posing as a girl and steal other people's luggage at airport.

I don't want there to be people with direct experience with the agency, but it would be nice if they actually worked with the agency before to know what needs to be fixed.

A heart surgeon TV host isn't going to have experience going through the paperwork to get claims paid by Medicare. Now if you told me it was Dr. Oz's admin/billing person, that would make much more sense. Oz is probably qualified to know what treatments are necessary and should be covered, but he isn't going know which 500 levels of red tape need to be cut out to smooth out the process. Know which bureaucratic loops need to be straightened out. which jobs are actually necessary, and which just serve to check a box.

How do you know that? He's not an idiot. Are you an accountant? If not, could you do your own taxes? I'm not. I could.

Just my biased opinion but someone that actually worked with/within a government agency is probably compromised.

 

[LouderVol]

yeah, and I think hiring you to rewrite the tax code with no experience actually dealing with the tax code would be a bad idea. at least when there are conceivable options out there who do have the experience.

Oz may be mentally capable of doing the job, but that is not something unique or specific to him. plenty of other people who are as intelligent and have some history directly working with the problems.

when you have a problem with the drywall in your house, do you go out an hire a mason, or do you hire a drywaller? the mason is capable. the mason works in a similar field, but the mason has no history working with drywall. that makes the mason a bad hire imo. same thing with Oz. there is literally a whole country of options and the selections I am taking are to people who don't have experience suffering from the issues we want fixed. not sure why that is an issue to point out there HAVE to be better options, except that it questions Trump and you guys can't even handle honest critiques of Trump yall love him so much.

I would rather Trump get the best person for the job and actually make improvements instead of hiring people who are going to have to learn on the go. or worse will just end up listening to some hold-over middleman who keeps the swamp intact.

if they spent their career dealing with the paper work and seeing how inefficient it was first hand as a non-government employee I wouldn't consider that compromised.

I could retire the tax code in fifteen minutes. Re: Fair Tax. Done

Do you think government bureaucrats have some special level of intelligence that makes them uniquely suited to run things? It is refreshing to see a different perspective on things. Every once in awhile, forest fires are good for the health of the forest. The .gov is full of understory that needs clearing.

A good manager doesn’t need to know the nuts and bolts of an operation.

 

[DynaLo]

Rewriting the tax code would be the easiest job on the planet, “select all, waiting, waiting, still waiting… ok, delete”.

_The person at my facility that is in charge of Medicare/medicaid billing watched four videos and received two days of training. I think OZ will do fine if he ends in that position.

if you are wanting to make drastic improvements you need to have a functional understanding of what it is they are doing. otherwise you are just as likely to eff something up, rather than fix it. your mindset is what leads to there being so many middle management types who don't have a clue what they are doing, and end up contributing nothing.

and that's without considering what happens to the efficiency of anything once it enters DC.
