I said nothing about making it free. It isn't free, it's paid by all of us. Whether we use it or not. Just like comparing us funding wars we aren't "using" or all of us paying for roads or public schools in our respective counties. Not all of us will use all of them, but we all pay for them to negate the cost of a single person paying for it's use. In most any other country that has abopted that idea understands that it isn't free. I've mentioned Norway as the head of this lil debate over life vs. money. No one cares just about "me" everyone cares about "them". I need dental work, I get it done when it's needed, not when I can afford it.
Otherwise, it would be like a pay-per-use toll and it could be staggering for us to use a single stretch of road if it were hardly used. But since we all seem to pay for it, the cost does down, whether we use it or not. My "solution" isn't free, it is a tax, as I've said before. We're paying for it, we may not use it, but if we DO use it, it wont break us or kill us because we can afford to pay for it.
The problem is that American Healthcare is privatized and must turn a profit, so you can hardly call them healthcare providers. They do enough to make a person believe they are cared for, but it is about money, if you don't have the money then "best of luck". And all of you are so dead-set on just making money vs living I can't comprehend it. But then again, isn't "health insurance" paid by the policy holder's that also pay for those who have sought care and failed to pay for it? Like I did when I was younger and couldn't afford to pay, oh yea we do! So isn't this just the same yet there are only a specific few that pay vs. EVERYONE paying? With or without research, it should be a common goal to insure we are all healthy since we all work to do the same things. Eat, sleep, live.
But I forgot, I'm in America and it's the American dream to have to worry about being a healthy adult and making a financial decision on something that shouldn't be a "financial" decision at all.
