[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agreed. If the only people buying healthcare is the very ill, it makes healthcare so expensive AND leaves hospitals in the lurch. We will see hospitals closing and collapsing under the economic burden. 
At the same time, the elder healthcare burden demands attention. It’s not sustainable. 
We need universal or required (affordable) healthcare for all, and free elder care options. [/quote]

Affordable to you is not affordable to someone else. Plus, if it's required, what stops providers from raising prices to get more reimbursement out of the government?[/quote]

DP...  this is why we need universal healthcare.  The healthcare industry has given no solutions where it comes to keeping healthcare costs under control.  There is no market solution. And going without, or with some minimalist plan is not an option.

We are the wealthiest nation on earth and we already spend more on healthcare than countries with universal healthcare, there is no reason we can't afford it, and no reason why our universal healthcare couldn't meet or exceed the best standards of care with a system providing universal healthcare.[/quote]
