$700 billion for the war. $700 billion for Wall Street. That made me wonder, what might we have done with the kind of money we are spending on that war? Suppose, for instance, we had invested that huge sum in diabetes research? We are told that diabetes is spreading like an epidemic.

Module title: Professional Issues in Perioperative Practice Essay Title: To critically analyse the advances to the practitioners scope of practice and evaluate the influences and responsibilities with reference to legal, ethical and professional accountability Word count: 4,508 As part of the Government's proposed reforms to the National Health Service (NHS), the Department of Health (DoH) has instructed the NHS to make savings of £15-20 billion by 2014. This is in conjunction with the introduction of the European Working Time directive for junior doctors that has reduced the number of hours that a junior doctor can work (DOH, 2009). This change has created a shortage of medical practitioners who are available to assist surgeons in the operating theatre, ward rounds and clinics (Thatcher, 2002) In recent years, the Department of Health and NHS publications have suggested that the key factor in transforming and achieving reform in the NHS is the awareness, recognition and development of potential skills that exist within the workplace. Specifically, the NHS Plan (DH 2000) has resulted in some perioperative practitioners being given the opportunity to take on an extended range of clinical tasks such as ordering diagnostics, making and receiving referrals, admitting and discharging patients, requesting tests and investigations, and prescribing drugs and running clinics. With the introduction of the European Working Time directive combined with the NHS Plan for Reform, a new extended role for the non-medical care provider in the theatre setting has been created.

His budget proposed; increased incomes tax on incomes over £3,000 a year, a new super tax on incomes over £5,000 a year, increased death duties on estates of over £5,000 a year,and new land taxes, indirect taxes on luxury goods such as petrol, beer and cars.
Giuliani plans to not only put this increase to an end, but calls for a dramatic decrease in this type of spending. To begin with he would like for all Congressional budgets to have a cost estimate before they are voted on which seems to be a very reasonable task to ask for. His plan seems to have a direction that cuts the cost of wasteful spending by our government making them more accountable for the monies they use by simply taking those actions similar to that of a large business. Part of this transaction calls for an enormous cut in the Federal Civilian Work force by over twenty percent.

Another comes from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services that recently determined that one-third of all health care consumed in the U.S. is unnecessary.
