Look. In ENTIRE world except the US, that is not happening. There are far more regulations everywhere else. They also regulate prices. They work. Looking at the situation, only one of the below possibilities can be true at any given time:
1 - The US exists in a totally different space/time continuum in which what you say is true
2 - The US exists in the same continuum with the rest of the planet, and you people are being totally scammed

Looking at the situation, only one of the below possibilities can be true at any given time: This is a false, unresearched claim. I can prove the fallacy with examples from Asia: China, India, Indonesia, all have low regulation and high availability.
- DangitBobby 4y agoDo you really believe healthcare in China even remotely resembles "low regulation"?
- nine_zeros 4y agoCompared to American healthcare? Yes, it is amazingly low regulation. I would suggest thinking about it as "better regulation" than "low regulation". American regulation is Kafkaesque. A better system is needed.
