Traditional Medicare sucks too though.
The fix for our medical system is to bring pricing down, while incentivizing innovation and not allowing your medical system to get overwhelmed by individuals that aren't contributing any money into it. You can have an argument about how to best do that but the current government backed options aren't cutting.
- bandofthehawk 4y ago> not allowing your medical system to get overwhelmed by individuals that aren't contributing any money into it So your proposal is that we let the poor die?
- DrThunder 4y agoYour proposal is that we wave a magical wand and suddenly medical care costs nothing and doctors, nurses, etc. don't need to be paid well? If we're going to play this silly game of absolutes, you're envisioning a utopia that cannot exist.
- wombatpm 4y agoNo. But until we acknowledge that we can pay for it directly, pay for it indirectly with packed ERs and dubious means testing and bureaucracy, or let the poor die are the only options we are never going to solve it
