Corzine Care

New Jersey’s going broke and Jon Corzine, the soon to be Democrat nominee for governor, is proposing a universal health care plan.

Jon Corzine has proposed a health care plan that would provide care for hundreds of thousands of state residents who lack health insurance.

Corzine said that all children and pregnant women would have "universal access to health care." He also proposed allowing more families to join the state's FamilyCare program at half the cost of buying health insurance on the open market.

Corzine said his proposal would require an "upfront investment of no more than $15 million."
Corzine Care would cover 776,000 people for an up front investment of $15 million. What’s the $15 mil for - the marketing campaign to get to people to sign up for Corzine Care? Let’s see, $15 million divided by 776,000 comes to $19.33 per person. How dumb does Corzine think we are? Upfront indeed.

Nice tone. You guys do understand that "up front" means the *first* round of money, right? And I'm sure that you get that the $19.33 figure is what it takes to get the program started, not how much it will cost to run it.

Programs cost money. Taking care of people's health is worth it.

So what's your point? We would like a better understanding of "all the rounds" of money.

We think Corzine is trying to give the impression that $15 million takes care of the problem. Some might call Corzine's ploy deceptive advertising.

Would you buy something if the seller didn't tell you the total cost?

New jersey taxpayers are already paying for the State's Family Care program, Medicaid, Medicare, health clinics and on and on.

Ask the people of Tenn. what they think of TennCare, now bankrupting that state.

No one tells you the full cost. No one tells us the whole truth. Saying that Corzine thinks we're dumb because of it is just cherry-picking - the problem is everywhere.

That's my point. Or at least the point of my "nice tone" comment.

Wow! the one true tami. New Jersey is being spent into oblivion. What programs are you going to cancel to justify spending the amount of money it would cost to insure 776K people.

What would that cost be $1,000 per person per year? 2K? 3K? Is it a self insured program? 15K? 50K?

Maybe we should start requirng candidates to tell us the "whole truth". What tone do you take when someone purposely tries to deceive your neighbors?

We find it insulting when a candidate puts out such a ridiculous cost for a program for the purpose of confusing people.

Perhaps you think it's okay. We don't.

Potentially over $3 billion per year. See my post.

Maybe because Corzine is a human ATM machine with local poltical bosses he thinks New Jersey taxpayers should reciprocate when it comes to Corzine's own programs. It's always easy to spend someone else's money. How about paring down government first then thinking about spending tax dollars. In the interest of upfront disclosures how about starting with Corzine's own finances, his relationship with Norcross and why the Attorney general has yet to release the tapes. I would still be surprised if Corzine didn't win the election considering the correlation between dollars being spent and electability. It's hard to believe with the intellectual wealth that exists in this state that both Republicans and Democrats couldn't raise better candidates. Maybe it's just not possible at this point.

Ken:

I own a small business and the cost for a Single Insured is $446.00 per month. I think, however, that the state would self insure. More like Medicaid. That means we have to add an entire new bureaucracy to negotiate with health care providers and maintain the system. This is the reason that no one wants to spin off Horizon as a public company. That's the mechanism the pols want to use to administer it.

So lets assume that your insurance company breaks even at $446/month, and their costs are similar to those the state will face. At that rate, this program will cost the state $346.1 million per month, or $4.153 billion per year. Even if they self-insure, their selected population will probably consume that much in services, since 'free' services usually receive unlimited demand.

Basically, we're screwed, unless we stop Corzine.

Yep, NJ is going broke. Thank you Governor Whitman and the Repub legislature of the 90's for the largest portion of that.

I guess that justifies the ....what was it?......17 per cent increase during the Dem administration? Stop being a hypocrite.

شركة هندسية صناعية /
: أنواعها، ومكوناتها والفرق بينها وبين غلايات المياه الساخنة.
الغلايات البخارية هي نوع من انواع المبادلات الحرارية التي تعتمد على انتقال الحرارة من اللهب الى الماء، حيث يتم تسخينُه إلى درجة الغليان، فينتج عن ذلك بخار، يُستخدم البخار الناتج في كثير من الأغراض الصناعية، ومحطات توليد الطاقة، والتدفئة المركزية للمنشئات.
انواع الغلايات:
1- غلايات مواسير اللهب FIRE TUbE وهى الغلايات التى تعتمد فى عملها بان يكون اللهب بداخل المواسير والمياه فى الحيز الخارجى بين المواسير.
2- غلايات مواسير المياه water tube وهى الغلايات التى تعتمد فى عملها بان يكون اللهب خارج المواسير فى الحيز الخارجى وحولها والمياه داخل المواسير.
3- غلايات رأسية وافقية وذلك من حيث محور وضع جدار الغلاية للارض vertical &horizontal boilers
4- غلايات طبقا للوقود المستخدم ( مازوت - سولار - غاز طبيعى ).
مكونات أنظمة الغلايات البخارية:
يتكون تصميم المرجل من 3 مكونات رئيسية:
1. نظام تغذية المياه:
نوعان، نظام تغذية مغلق ونظام تغذية مفتوح، ودوره الأساسي تنظيم دورة الماء المراد تحويله إلى بخار.
2. نظام البخار:
هو النظام الرئيسي في المرجل ومسؤول عن التحكم وجمع البخار المتولد من تلك العملية
3. نظام الوقود:
يتوقف علي نوع الوقود المستخدم:
الوقود الصلب: ويشمل عدة أشياء منها الفحم والخشب وفحم الكوك وقشر الأرز وقوالب الفحم.
الوقود السائل: يشمل زيت الفرن وزيت الديزل الخفيف.
الوقود الغازي: يشمل سوائل الغاز الطبيعي والغاز الطبيعي المسال، والغاز الطبيعي بالأنابيب.

الفرق بين الغلايات البخارية و شركة تصنيع معدات هندسية /:
يمكن أن يستخدم كلا النوعين من الغلايات الغاز أو الكهرباء أو الزيت لتوليد الطاقة. إضافة إلى ذلك، كلاهما يستخدم الماء الساخن كمصدر رئيسي للحرارة. ومع ذلك، فإن كيفية توليد الحرارة هو ما يميزهم:

تعمل الغلاية البخارية على تسخين الماء إلى درجة الغليان من أجل توليد البخار. بعد ذلك، ينتقل البخار عبر شبكة من الأنابيب إلى المشعات حول منزلك. من ناحية أخرى، تقوم غلاية الماء الساخن بتسخين الماء حتى يسخن بدرجة كافية. ثم يدفع الماء الساخن عبر شبكة مماثلة من الأنابيب إلى المشعات. عندما يتكثف البخار أو يبرد الماء، فإنه يعود إلى الغلاية ويعاد تسخينه.
صيانة الغلايات:
تعد الصيانة الدورية أمرًا بالغ الأهمية لضمان بقاء نظام المرجل موثوقًا وآمنًا وفعالًا.إن اتباع جدول الصيانة المنتظم لغلايتك البخارية، سيؤدي إلي تقليل الأعطال وانقطاع الخدمة، فيما يلي توصيات للمهام اليومية والأسبوعية والشهرية ونصف السنوية والسنوية. كما هو الحال دائمًا، اتبع توصيات الشركة المصنعة للصيانة الروتينية واحتفظ بسجل سجل الغلايات يوميًا.
أسباب انفجار الغلايات البخارية:
1- انخفاض مستوى المياه في المرجل.
2- زيادة تسخين بعض الأجزاء المعدنية المعرضة للهب.
3- عيوب اللحامات أو الخامات المستخدمة للغلاية.
4- وجود تكلسات بطبقة سميكة على جدار المرجل.
5- وجود نسبة عالية من الحديد في مياه الغلاية مما يساعد على تآكل الجسم
و لتفادي حدوث الانفجار لابد من أتباع عدة خطوات و منها عدم تغذية الغلاية بمياه باردة أثناء عملها وهى ساخنة، لأن التغيرات المفاجئة في درجات الحرارة تؤدى إلى تأكل بدن الغلاية و مواسير اللهب، و أيضا من الخطوات المهم أتخاذها فحص خط الوقود و ما بها من صمامات و أن تكون تعمل بشكل صحيح من دون تسريب.
