which is the professional association for doctors and other medical providers the american medical association is leading in a song on medicare for home legislation it's vs. you've got another angle of the spine actually. i need to work on my steps to. while these angry nurses marched outside the a.m.a. held their annual meeting to help themselves on the back for the work they did do here's this am a president delivering a riveting speech about equitable care and here are the members trekking live empty to see if she is correct. though it seems the president was blowing a lot of hot air which is clinically speaking jinja vitus it seems that a.m.a. has been historically opposed to considering health care as a human right so much so that now the medical professionals have stood up and said that the a.m.a. does not stand for them and you know when a drum circle appears outside your door until drum circles only have been on seoul's disses to ward off evil spirits or to give the seniors of ashville something else to watch because they couldn't figure out how to operate the smart t.v. the rhythm is

applicabilities that are proven medical uses of marijuana, go back to the journal of the american medical association who did a review last year that indicated that of the over 50 suggested uses for medical marijuana, only four are proven through rigorous scientific trials. four. ptsd is not one of them. it's not. treatment for opioid abuse is not one of them. in fact, the head of the national institute of drug abuse, who i think knows more than probably anyone in this room about the subject, says that marijuana is an addictive drug that is dangerous and recent research says that it induces psycho cease in young people -- psychosis in young people. serious major psychotic conditions. and we want to remove all the restrictions in the health part of the law? i reserve the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman reserves the balance of his time. the gentlewoman from new york is recognized. ms. ocasio-cortez: thank you very much. my colleague across the aisle says we need to research this more and i agree and that is why this amendment is being introduced, madam chair. the note was brought up that t

when president harry truman proposed a national health care program, the american medical association hired ronald reagan as their pitchman. the ama called the legislation that stemmed from his proposal "socialized medicine," claiming that white house staff were, "followers of the moscow party line." in 1960, ronald reagan in a letter to richard nixon wrote the following about john f. kennedy: "under the tousled boyish haircut is still old karl marx." in the 1990s, then congressman newt gingrich claimed president bill clinton's health care plan was "centralized bureaucratic socialism." the conservative heritage foundation has claimed that the children's health insurance program, the chip program, was "a step towards socialism." former speaker of the house john boehner claimed the stimulus package, the omnibus spending bill and the budget proposed by president barack obama were "all one big down payment on a new american socialist experiment." in this regard, president harry truman was right when he said that "socialism is the epithet they have hurled at every advance the people have m

the interesting thing that has happened is that we now know that journal of american medical association has reported this, that our wait times in the most important medical specialties are better than in the private sector. give you an example. largest city in florida, orlando. the wait time for specialty surgery at the v.a. center in orlando is 12 days. in metropolitan orlando it's 78 days. my view, one of the things that i have said many times, is that i don't expect to see a major spike because of the progress v.a. has made since phoenix. >> you have been talking about this for a while. we have been writing on this. there seems to be still a lot of concern about -- among v.s.o.'s you could see a spike this. could be expensive and undermine the existing v.a. structure. when do you think you'll be able to confidently come before them and say -- secretary wilkie: i'm sure they'll have me standing before them in a short time. let me go back to what the underlying premise to all those questions. and i have been very vocal in knocking down that premise. the premise has been that we're in t

stuart: why does the - american american medical association objected medicare for all?k a few years ago they were busy pushing and promoting the affordable care act and everyone said well, they are pro- insurance but i'd like them to be productive for a change. doctors and hospitals have a lot of problems with medicare for all. first of all, it cuts doctors income. stuart: it cut straight at it. you don't like medicare for all because without your income. [laughter] >> and it can restrict what i ordered for my parents. i don't like it because i constantly have to appeal and its rationing care. hospitals don't like it because it decreases the amount of income they get from private insurance and wipes out which they then used for research. medical schools, research, rationing care becomes a huge problem on the medicare and hooray for the american medical association. stuart: and your income. that's at the heart of your complaint, isn't it? >> no. a part of my complaint is the ability to practice medicine in a way that helps the patient. doctors already spending way too mu

guest: well, as i said before, according to the american medical association and the world medical associationhappening on h unit is unethical. and i will tell you one thing about mr. salameh's experience, one day in 2006 when he was on hunger strike, was brought in to be force fed, he was given a share, a tube was inserted in a nutritionistthe of one supplement into a tube, and mr. salameh started vomiting. instead of stopping, the assistant continue to feed him, cartone him carton an after him 16 carton fed thomas quinlan of about a gallon, only to have him throw them all up in term. a doctor looked at the medical records and saw that he had been force-fed 16 cartons only to vomit it up, he told me there is no medical rationale for the procedures to happen, and it seems like they were doing this with the intent to harm him, with the, intent to cause him pain and suffering and that, under international law, means that what happens announced to torture. thing mr. salameh told me once was that he would rather be waterboarded than force-fed, because it leaves people understand that waterboarding

>> journal of the american medical association, number two and number one in readership, about writing individual sentences, taking out a sentence that says "congress should repeal the 1987 amendment that makes pharmacy benefit managers exempt from the sherman antitrust act." they said, we don't like to recommend legislative action, and they cut it right out, even though it is in a commentary format. even though i am a little afraid to say this in public with the cameras on, we are all afraid of getting blackballed. i am a cancer surgeon, i don't care what people think of me. i will find a place to publish it if the leading journals don't take it, but we have to write in a certain way, and that way has not changed in 100 years. can we just say look, we can talk to the public. we don't have to do it in this robotic format. by the way, hardly anyone reads these things -- we can write in the wall street journal. those would be some of the most effective articles when we put out our research. i have told our team, this teeth on hospitals -- this piece on hospitals suing patients that is co

it appeared in the journal of the american medical association a very large study done in england withtia and looked at a very specific class of medication called anticholinergics and yet another study that showed an increased associated rick of developing dementia with this class. take a look at this list. this is a big class of drugs. these medications can be used to treat psychosis, depression, some bladder issues and those are available over the counter in some cases and epilepsy. not cause and effect but strong association. if you think you may be on one of those medications you should ask your doctor or pharmacist. >> what should you do? >> i like this study because it reminds us we always have to balance risk versus benefit versus option when we talk about any therapies so if you're on one of these medications do not abruptly stop it without talking to your health care provider and, again, i think we have to remember that up to 35% of dementia cases may be, in fact, preventable with lifestyle modifications so, again, you want to not smoke, keep your weight in the healthy range a
