@asmartbear nonsense, by that logic what is a reasonable upper bound? Ability to pay and price insensitivity drive healthcare prices. -
@jdunck either it was a joke, or I'm a colossal idiot defending our broken health care system. Sadly for us both, you assume the latter. -
@asmartbear I've seen similar responses from lots of people, especially re skilled labor costs. Sorry I didn't recognize as a joke. -
@jdunck Really, "lots of people" defend the outrageous skyrocketing costs of health care? And same in high ed? You're chatting w/ odd people
