    Does the 2500 a year I am saving under Obamacare count towards the 300 million we? save under the TommyCare?

    You think it's corruption I'm pointing to? Lol. It's not corruption. It's inefficiency. As ever the statists will repeat, "The state would solve it all if we just got the right people in there." Socialism won't ever be efficient in the world as we know it. It's purely a matter of overhead even without the considerations for corruption and shrinkage.

    I also don't really buy the metrics that people like to repeat as talking points about being first in spending and 37th in healthcare as reflecting our healthcare system being "broken".

    Rich nations spend more on healthcare. Unhealthy nations spend more on healthcare and have poorer health overall. We are leaders in both of these categories. Of course we are going to rank high in spending and low on overall health.

    I think we have had and can again have the best healthcare in the world using free markets as opposed to government planned markets. Government is part of the problem with our healthcare. Not the solution.

    I should have noticed the libertarian retardation in your first post. My mistake.

    Why is that?

    Try to answer the question in a way that makes the reader think you understand basic economic principles.



    Nothing else matters. Your other two questions are FS.
    I’m not gonna get lectured about basic understanding or healthcare by an anti vax nut.

    It appears you have multiple sacred cows above questioning.

    This discussion has nothing to do with care, or types of care. It's economics stupid.

    Still dodging the question.

    If you don't actually understand economics, just say so.

    “Sacred cows” is an economic term? In the same school that teaches anti-vaccine theory 101.

    So you just want to copy somebody? Who?

    What part of their plan controls costs?



    what's in the box.gif







    I want providers to compete for the business. Just like every other efficient economy in the word.

    The guy asking this shit hole how to short the market now expects a fully cooked Medicare for all plan explained to him in detail.

    Please provide a policy that posits more than statism as a solution and I'll happily give you more than a libertarian answer. You guys are just a bunch of tired socialist platitudes about helping the poor, equality, etc.

    Do you want to talk about how to minimize administration costs or how to reform medical collections to incentivize insurance companies to pay bills properly instead of trying to forego payments?

    Do you want to talk about how to deal with an aging population with expanding entitlements and how to maintain solvency of our existing programs?

    Or maybe you want to actually discuss what a single payer looks like, how to pay for it, and how exactly it will affect the open market for healthcare services?

    Nah, you don't want any of that because that would actually take effort instead of hand waving at Europe while never mincing out the complexity of the issue.

    p.s. Not a libertarian, pigeon hole me if it makes you feel better.

    It says more that you're afraid to answer the question.

    It says you cant.



    Your solutions at this point amount to Pollyanna bullshit.
