    That may be true. A majority of us would also like a million dollars. But I suppose we have to make decisions based on factors such as: how much money there is to spend, what's needed compared to what's "wanted," what's efficient vs. wasteful, etc.https://twitter.com/SenSanders/status/920290133794017283 …

        If the government did not guarantee reimbursement, how fast would the price of medical care come down?

        The government's pretty involved with student loans. But as far as I know govt didn't do all that much with healthcare until the ACA, yet costs have been rising for a long time.

        I"m not an expert but experts I trust say the prices the govt has long negotiated (in secret) w/providers/drug companies/hospitals dictate all of our costs. $$$$$

        He actually has been. He and a group have been trying to get support for a universal healthcare type bill, but they're not getting much support because politicians are too worried about next Congressional elections. I think there's another bipartisan bill that Collins, etc. want

        Isn't that basically what we had before Obamacare. When insurance companies were happy to take our money but then say, " We don't cover this or that.", "This was a precondition, we won't cover it.", "Your doctor's medical report was hard to read, your claim is denied".

        Well lucky you my friend. In multiple ways. You actually had insurance, that's amazing. And they weren't jerks or you never needed to actually use it... That's pretty lucky. 2 of the things I mentioned is personally had happen with people I was helping out.

        All of that is lucky. But nobody disagrees that costs have gone up. Heck, even the Democrats agree.

        So the State is now “socialized” to “protect health” where does it stop? A State big enough to give can also take away? Recourse: none.
