-Why did government just take over 1/6th of the US economy with the national health care bill? When a free market solution was never even tried.
Ha.[/quote]
we have tried the free market solution since the Medical Insurance Industry swayed from Nonprofit in the 80s

You think there is a free health insurance market in the US?
Cool beans.

I am more in line for nonprofit

Well, if you want shitty, unaccountable and rationed service when you are at your most vulnerable that would definitely be the way to go.
I have already provided you with a link for a for profit hospital that provides services much cheaper than the average clinic in the enormously over-regulated US clinics, with American doctors, American nurses and all the standard equipment of an American hospital.
Plus, they have a practically nonexistent infection rate.
If real world examples wont convince you, welcome to the Canadian health-care system.
I am not sure where YOU will run to if you have to wait ages for a procedure but I hear China is making progress in terms of economic freedom.
I for one welcome our new Chinese overlords, not only do they rarely, if ever start wars, I will also no longer have to read about the pleasures of socialism on the internet because they censor it heavily.

Also, I live in a country with “nonprofit” medical services and I pay for practically everything out of pocket.
Does this not make you wonder, at least a little bit?
Next time you post drivel like this I will take my camera, walk into the next hospital and make pictures of the restrooms.
Just so you know what you can look forward to.[/quote]
My Drivel comes from experience , in the 80s I had Blue Cross Blue Shield . the best insurance ever . Then it went for profit. It became more expensive and more restrictive . The last medical procedure I had done at Avera in SD. A nonprofit Catholic Health Crae system.
I would like to take you to Scottsdale Health Care , expensive and dirty. Absolutely no upside to more cost

It was absolute mistake. Now they exercise too much power. They’ve infiltrated our government, and they block every attempt that is made to curb their influence.

Just think, if the government didn’t have the power it has today, which it wasn’t supposed to have in the first place, would these business men be spending the money they do to buy policy?
No. Because they wouldn’t be buying anything.
And if these banks actually had to fear the repercussions of taking on too much risk (bankruptcy) do you think they would act as foolish as they have?
no.
So, in short you are mad at the wrong people. Be mad at the government that gave the banks our money with no repercussions.

Have you, or anyone, found a good website that lays out the costs of HI over the last 30 years or so? Google is failing me, or I’m failing at Google.
I mean I know what goes on today, and I see the costs in MA exploding which turns into companies paying for less and less of their employees because they can’t maintain low costs of goods and services if they continue to foot higher and higher costs.
Also, could the aging of the baby boomers have a big hand in the increases in HI?
I will admit I don’t really know a ton about HI and it’s interaction with doctors and hospitals other than the barebone basics.

No I have no such site . Health care is going to have to change, IMO I see no other option other than socialized medicine . Things will never get better and never get cheaper and they will tell us what ever they like to promote their point of view
