Again, great idea in theory, hopefully it can be executed that way. And since this isn't supposed to take effect until 2012ish, I will be on Medicaid by then I am sure and it won't affect me haha!<br /><br />I don't want something I will have to refill because if I go away for a week that becomes a hassle. I can exercise at home with my large clunky concentrator. I mainly need it for travel :)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12354849302798817593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3494278500717046387.post-90536822716220639282009-09-28T00:48:09.786-04:002009-09-28T00:48:09.786-04:00I agree that everyone needs to have health coverag...I agree that everyone needs to have health coverage. But I'm not so sure that i like the idea of the government running it. Though i'm not sure if Obama still wants that or not, its hard to really know what is in the plan is there are so many that seem to be floating around. If the government would run health care like they run the DMV we are all in trouble. <br /><br />On the oxygen issue. Skip the portable concentrator and go for liquid oxygen. You will have to refill a portable, but it will last you around 8 hours on 2 liters. If you're only using it for exercising and things like that you'll be just fine. The portable weighs about 4 pounds which is going to be alot less than a portable concentrator and much easier to carry.Matt Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136135849022014151noreply@blogger.com
