I’m sure our healthcare outcomes are FAR superior to the countries behind us in this chart. Is that because private individuals are wasting money or because the government is wasting money?I love that all of the socialists like to pretend the US has a purely capitalist system when the argument is about how inefficient the current system is.Intervene in the market, distort the market, blame the market, call for more intervention, rinse and repeat. I agree with you. But if I read that chart right. It shows that through 2007, public expenditures are less than private. No? *sigh* The point is that public expenditures are a Yuge part of our system. The fact that they make up around 50% of the market tells you just what a "free" market it is. A pure free market should have 0% public expenditures.C'mon Hondo, it's NOT hard. Well then what you are saying is, half the market is already government ran, is not a big stretch to make the entire system government ran.

And further, part of why I like to use the historical numbers, is because you can see how sharply spending (both public and private) took off exactly when the government entered the market in 1965. There's also sharp increases with the various passages of each version of medicare.If your argument is that our current system is inefficient, there is strong correlated evidence that government spending, and the crowding out it causes the private sector, is what is driving those inefficiencies. Keep blaming the private sector for the increasing failings of an increasingly socialist system. It's the socialist playbook. I'd like to see the chart through 2017. I'd also like to see GDP through 2017 as well. komo4buttfucker, it's not hard. I believe government spending exceeded private in the last few years but I could be wrong.

JFC who the fuck is going to do anything without a profit?There is a big need to changeThe devil remains firmly ensconced in the details Get rid of government healthcare. Create medical savings accounts that people pay into just like they do with SS over the course of their entire working life and create catastrophic health insurance to cover extra ordinary expenses life cancer and heart surgery. Let people shop for their everyday healthcare needs just like they do with every other consumer product. Build an incentive into the system for people to save money. Treat the money accumulated in the MSA as an asset that people can pass onto their heirs when they die. Why do people spend the greatest percentage of all their healthcare cost in the last two years of their lives? Because for the most part they ain't paying for it.
