I addressed your first point, as the rest was just bloviating from you, without anything to back it up, as usual.
It is a terrible system, it removes incentives from individuals to better manage their own care, with their own money.
You already admitted that we have the most expensive healthcare system in the world. And, how is it not a disadvantage for companies to have partially pay for employee health insurance when companies in other countries don't have to?
I never said our government run system is the best in the world, I said the elderly in other countries would envy it, because you can currently use it as much as you wan
Oh, I see, its not the best, its just that people who would use health care envy it. That makes perfect sense.
Of course you will, because you don't ever research anything, beyond the superficial talking points of political people you like.
Research out killing people because they don't fit with an ideology? I've read history books about it, but it was never something I cared to propose for a national policy. Why would any sane person?
That's not what I said.
Two things you're very good at, putting words into the mouths of others and dishonesty.
You said we should deny medical care to people over 70 since they were just going to die anyway, and you propose that to save tax dollars. I stand by my mocking of your crass and inhumane notion.
Cost effective treatments often put a dollar value on each person, the government can not afford to treat all people with the best medicine.
It's not realistic, you live in a fantasy world.
You are the one putting a dollar value on each person, deciding who dies to save tax dollars. I prefer to once again make the wealthy pay their fair share in tax revenues over your ultimate solution!
