Free market is a playground for capitalistic abuse. Government provided health care is already implemented in many other countries and costs to each citizen are much lower than in the US.free market approach
Free Market can be abused, Government Mandated care can be abused. Anything can be abused.Free market is a playground for capitalistic abuse. Government provided health care is already implemented in many other countries and costs to each citizen are much lower than in the US.
How many years of income tax have you paid? Or any tax that goes into health care? With all of it combined is it cheaper in the end? I'm curious so I can find out what system is better.I discloated my shouler three years ago.
When it happened I got an ambulence, a reduction and some drugs.
When in recovery, I had several consultant appointments, three x-rays and sit months of physio.
I paid nothing other then the income tax I always pay.
Not even the issue, watch the video. It' clear to me you didn't watch.Too much regulation has caused costs to skyrocket. The barrier to entry is so high, that there are only a handful of companies that are even allowed to be in the healthcare business. Even private practices are usually just franchisees of larger hospital corporations. Now, you don't want just any weirdo off the street caring for your health, but we have crossed the line between coon sense and nanny state long ago.
Would we even need insurance without government involvement? Maybe for major surgeries or experimental treatments. But competition in those areas might mean the difference between a few thousand dollars and the price of a house, as some surgeries and extended hospital stays can be 50k to 100k or more. All the costs for licensure, and arbitrary fees get passed on to the patient.
The affordable care act made things even worse by requiring health insurance. So if everyone has insurance, we can charge more for services, since insurance will pay most of it, and we can afford to eat the cost of the $1000+ deductible if the patient is unable or unwilling to pay that. The only loser in this scenario is the patient's credit score.
Let's try a free market approach before we let the incompetent bureaucracy mess it up even more.
Maybe you should try getting a job.Universal Healthcare is lovely but this country hates poor people so I can't ever see it being a thing
I already have one lolMaybe you should try getting a job.
