Sure, but that doesn't make it any more affordable for the average person.

Sure, but that doesn't make it any more affordable for the average person.
- iguy 6y agoBack-of-envelope numbers: US GDP per capita * US life expectancy is about 5 million dollars. Healthcare is maybe 18% of GPD and climbing, call it a million a person and rising. A majority (but not a huge one) is government spending. I don't exactly know the breakdown, but it must skew towards the old & sick -- like cancer patients. It's not inconceivable that million-dollar cancer treatments could become widespread.
