    In the high-priced U.S. health system, "expensive" and "cheap" often take on entirely different meanings than those in everyday life.https://n.pr/2AADEil

        So sad how much propaganda there is against #MedicareForAll or some universal healthcare system. Even the Koch bro's study said it would save $trillions over the next decade and cover everyone.

        The US does not have a health care "system" (unless you're talking about Medicare or the VA). We have a health care industry, with an emphasis on billing and competing entities vying for market share.

        I praise your motive but you missed the real healthcare flaws that allow large institutions to charge high facility fees. Naming physicians as complicit is pointless! As they have no control & don’t benefit from these charges. They just see the grim future of medicine more clear!

        Reminds my of the time, years ago, when my wife was charged a $50 use fee for hanging up her coat in a locker in the emergency room of a hospital. When I disputed it, they did reverse the charge, but still...

        I see why you like Dems! Let’s spend 50% of U.S. GDP on healthcare, instead of present outrageous 25% already. smh #VoteGOP for commonsense and results

        Other countries with single payer systems get much better health outcomes at much lower cost. Lucky for you Trump repealed and replaced the ACA with something huuuugely better, didn't he?
