Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I'd like to suggest that possibly something is seriously wrong in our society if we need to revert to home made drugs instead of what pretty much the rest of the civilized world does: providing them to their citizens by means of a single payer, universal health care system.
- maxerickson 9y agoThis comes up all the time. Lots of systems are universal without being single payer. Or look at Medicaid. It has 50 payers (or more, not sure how territories are implemented). ~1/4 of Americans get health coverage through Medicaid.
- fjsolwmv 9y agoMedicaid is single payer in each jurisdiction. You can't effectively shop for a different Medicaid provider.
- refurb 9y agoWhat about the drugs that single payer systems won't pay for?
