There are three things a nation needs to accept about universal health care:

(1) It’s expensive (2) Everybody has to pay (3) The government’s gotta run it

Computers and software used to be extremely expensive about 30 years ago, yet private industry advanced the state of the art and brought the prices down.

There seems to be very little talk about making medical education cheaper and more accessible. Why wouldn't it be cheaper if we had more MDs and nurses? What if we made it easier to become an MD ?

The insurance system is a cartel and they are greedy. However the regulations (upheld by the government) enable it.

Because your congressman gets lots of donations from doctors and hospitals. Doctors like to drive fancy cars.

In places with Catholics, you usually get the bishops advocating for the local Catholic hospital system.

So government (my congressman) IS the problem! Thanks for reinforcing what Reagan said 40 years ago.

This cult of personality in American politics is such a curse.
