No, I dont think so.
BTW you might have noticed that Obama came off that whole "Preventative medicine will save us money" jazz along the trail when a big study came out showing that once we give people "insurance" for preventative medicine that they line up for so much medical care consumption that there is no seeing this so called savings for good healthcare.....the bills are bigger as far as the eye can see, because people want, and they want more when billions or tens of billions of dollars a year (Or is it HUNDREDS of BILLIONS? Who knows?) are spent on direct advertising in 1984 fashion directing people to "services" and in "free samples" to get people hooked.
Plus people pointed out that that's was what HMO's were supposed to be all about in the 1980's, and that sure did not work.
I remember those HMO's They were so restrictive that they were useless. Preventive medicine does work. It's why Europeans are healthier than we are and live longer and have a lower infant mortality rate.
